Last night, I finally understood Arteta’s attitude towards this game, and his pride.
We were all losing it after going 2-0 down - excuses we had already played the game in our heads and won.
He (and the players) had to be in the present. Deal with reality and a new story. >
I think this is why I get REALLY REALLY mad when Arsenal “fans” use words like “unacceptable”, “useless”, “pathetic”, “failure” when describing players or performances…
When my young team has been (still is) top of the league the entire season (except for a few hours)… using >
Ian Wright is a lovely human being.
It just struck me- his energy, his positivity, his humility, his respectfulness.
Some people stand on others to attain stature. Wrighty elevates others.
He has a childlike sense of joy and wonderment that is SO rare.
#Arsenal treasure.
@Arsenal I propose a minute's silence and black armbands for the Bournemouth game in memory of beloved supporter, blogger David Faber aka @TheGoonerholic - who passed away today.
All in favour say "❤️".
And then there's this:
Torreira clearly arrives first. Studs up, but moving across Rose's path.
Rose arrives late (STUDS UP TOO) and kicks Torreira's studs.
Rose is late. No red card. #Arsenal

We’ve got Smith Rowe
Emile Smith Rowe
I just don’t think you understand
He’s Arsenal’s number 10
He comes from Hale End
We’ve got Emile Smith Rowe

“It’s a terrible angle”
“VAR checked it”
“Nothing to see here”
BOLLOCKS
I’ve done Lee Mason’s job for him. It’s OFFSIDE. Clearly.
See for yourself what PGMOL CHOSE not to.
#ARSBRE#VAR
.@RobHolding95 practically ended Son's career with this horrendous tackle in the #NLD. Definite PK. Surprised RH wasn't red-carded for this. FA review imminent as obviously Mean Dike missed it. (And people accused Son of diving!! Pffft.) #Arsenal
Saka "Dive".
Clearly clips back of defender's heel at full speed while going for ball.
Not a PK, but DEFINITELY not a dive.
VAR should easily have seen this. Chose not to.
Why?
