Alex 37608 Posted September 22, 2024 Share Posted September 22, 2024 (edited) To be honest I fucking despise Arsenal, their fans generally and Arteta and their priggish hypocrisy. And I’d rather Man City won the league again than Liverpool or Arsenal, who are the only other two realistic candidates imo. Plus it just shows what they’ve accomplished by trying to make it a closed shop, ie the rest of the established teams might have an advantage over the ‘other 12’ or whatever. But they’ve also locked in Man City’s advantage over them. Edited September 22, 2024 by Alex 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 19486 Posted September 22, 2024 Share Posted September 22, 2024 (edited) Milan derby won by Milan 2-1 with two Milan fans scoring their goals and likely another Milan fan in NE England v. happy indeed Decent game, Tammy Abrahams started for Milan and I thought he did well but obviously at 1-1 he missed a gilt edged chance to be an all time Rossoneri legend but he put it wide because he’s Tammy Abrahams Edited September 22, 2024 by PaddockLad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonBlue 1050 Posted September 23, 2024 Share Posted September 23, 2024 arsenal were 2-1 up at the home of the champions and they found a way to bottle it. i'd have taken that before the game, but we should have scored more. we lumped a few into the box but meat and drink for arsenal. they're a team of big buggers. they 're supposed to have the best defense around. might be true. but when you don't leave the penalty are and you're all giants its hardly a masterclass. a tactical masterclass would involve them carrying some sort of threat. still they got a point and kicked rodri out of the PL for a while so job done. reminded me of that game arsenal whinged about versus stoke years back. stoke parked the bus and walcott had to be carried off. so the question is are arsenal stoke in disguise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand i think throwing the ball at the gooner after scoring was dodgy. but the other 2 were fine by me :). blue specs firmly on and here we go.... the so called first body smash was at the exact moment the gooner headed the ball. just to men shoulder to shoulder. didn't look great granted. the second was obstruction by the gooner. as halland is charging into the arsenal half the gooner takes several steps to the side and into haalands path. haaland didn't care and went into him. if you watch it again ask yourself what the gooner was thinking as he stepped across. oh and havertz should have gone for his forearm smash on rodri 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 23619 Posted September 24, 2024 Share Posted September 24, 2024 I see Ian Wright is having a go at Haaland for launching the ball at Gabriel's heed at the end. 😂 Didn't Ian wright and mark bright when at palace try and get arsenal keeper sent off in the 80s by being utter cunts?
