Re the #Arsenal performance and result yesterday: The thing I keep coming back to is that Arteta’s behaviour at halftime, and in the second half, showed that he clearly acknowledged the mistake, whatever he said in the press conference afterwards. That gives me hope.

Had a wonderfully restorative weekend with my wife & dog, going to the beach & a woodland for walks (well, rolls for me 🦽). Feeling recharged & in a very +ve headspace, with renewed vitality. More challenges to deal with, but I’m ready. Bring it on. Time for another journey of reinvention.

We need attacking reinforcements, & not doing that over the last two windows was a mistake. No question. Still, decent effort from the team last night, and had it not been for Donnarumma making a string of worldie saves over both legs, things could’ve been different. We went down swinging. #Arsenal

One of the things I’ve especially enjoyed about #Arsenal’s win over Real Madrid is hearing the different international commentators going nuts over Declan Rice’s astonishing free kicks. Pulling a few together here. [Thread]
