Animal lover. Proudly part-Italian. Arsenal & Bayer 04 Leverkusen fan. Once a Gooner, always a Gooner. Was at Anfield in 89 & can prove it 😎

If anyone at the club follows me or knows someone who works at the club, can they ask the people responsible for playing North London Forever to go back to ending the song before kick off. It's absolutely awful singing over the kick off and for the first few seconds of the match.

Sterling is interesting because in actual games, he’s been what you can reasonably expect: lively, frustrating, threat and output (3 G+A in 4 matches worth of time), lapses, flexibility. In Sept Arteta said “physically, he needs to get there to the level that we require.” Assume it’s mostly that.

LOL. Nothing suspicious here.
FIFA have given the Saudi bid for 2034 the same 4.1/5 score for its stadiums - despite eight not yet built - as they gave to the Canada-Mexico-USA bid for 2026, all of which are built, many of which are world leading NFL stadia.

I mean, how?

From this weekend, all errant passes out from the back by tactically exposed, hapless goalkeepers can officially be described as "an early Christmas present".

In that spirit, please buy my books on the language of football and how it's influenced us all...

If you are travelling to West Ham on Saturday, note some brutal planned works on the Cambridge & Peterborough lines into Kings Cross, as well as many others.

Newcastle are shown so much leniency from referees. It's baffling.

Joelinton and Bruno are allowed to foul at will with zero punishment.

And we picked up 3 yellows for 4 fouls on Saturday.

It feels like this platform is much more settled now, so it feels like a good time to share this again.

I’ve updated it as I’ve seen new accounts appear, but please comment with any missing.

Reposts appreciated. Let’s grow the football community on here.

I’m making a list of “blue wave” accounts that appear to be bots. They’re all posting the same junk content links and are reeeeaaaally similar.

One of the most exciting things post break will be Mikel Merino.

He had no pre season, then a two month injury, an international break, then a month of finding his feet during an injury crisis.

Adapting to that is incredibly difficult, but #Arsenal will see his technical prowess very soon. #AFC

Took three trains totalling three hours in Italy on Wednesday. Every train was clean, spacious, cheap, on time with charging ports and plentiful toilets on every train. Commute from Tottenham to Kent. Not one toilet and trains overground and underground just all fucked.

Don’t know why Spurs fans spent all that time bragging about this new stadium when it clearly belongs to Arsenal Football Club.
