Can we not get a “plucky PSG and their starving supporters” narrative please? They are a rich kid’s plaything on gigantic wages and they *should* be here, every fucking year.

There's a lot of talk about fine margins, but if you don't have players who can take the chances you create those margins are going to go against you in the bigger games.

Amazing stuff again! Arsenal deserved to win both legs of this quarter-final, Saka's goal brilliant, and Madrid only scored because of a mistake you'll probably never see Saliba make again in his career. 5-1 on aggregate, Rice superb over both games, but a hugely impressive collective effort too.🔥

Iconic 🤫

Absolutely GTFO with any of this, not having it.

That’s a dirty play by Mbuemo, perfected by Kane first. I hate the undercut. It should be an instant card.

Myles Lewis-Skelly vs Real Madrid 18 years old. Quarter final vs Real Madrid. Up against Mbappe, Vinicius, Rodrygo and asking for the ball all the time in tight spaces. Playing like a 27 year old leader. Balls. Baller.

I wonder how the ‘letter of the law’ brigade can square the officials’ performance today… in particular re: Fofana’s display. 1 straight red and 5 yellow card offences. Should have been off in the 1st half hour… meanwhile we get sendings off for tapping a ball 6’’ while being hoofed in the air ffs.

Zelensky has not refused to negotiate. He has refused to surrender to a murderous dictator who has illegally invaded his country youtu.be/HpmDquOkSCY?...

Match Day, en route already. Come on you gunners.

In November 1922 Arsenal were firmly stuck on the bottom of the 1st Division table, struggling to score goals. Leslie Knighton moved full-back Bob Turnbull to centre-forward where he scored 16 goals in 14 games pulling us out of the relegation zone. Ben White, your time has come!

. @nadiawhittomemp.bsky.social says Labour has “been dragged in the wrong direction” on trans+ issues. “Our party must completely reject the tired narrative that trans people are a threat... It wasn’t true about gay men in the ‘80s, and it is not true about the trans community now.”

every day we see more and more evidence of society descending into utter lawlessness and chaos

Quite the picture. Hang it in the Louvre.

In a season that's been largely miserable, that win felt so cathartic. We've been second best to City (and again to Liverpool this season) but what's the point of being a fan if you can't love days like today. We put FIVE past them on our own turf, with two Hale End boys scoring. Beautiful.

It's great when individuals who work for broadcasting outlets that have shows like 'Ref Watch' and who focus so, so much of their match coverage on refereeing decisions start wondering why there is so much focus on referees and conclude that it is because of Mikel Arteta.

Glad to see the Lewis Skelly red is being roundly condemned but we can’t treat it as a black swan event or a one off aberration. Webb is trying to create a culture of referees being stars and it needs to stop and it needs to be called out.

Georgie has always known

1. Not a red 2. Not a yellow 3. Not a foul

Let's make that decision, and Michael Oliver, utterly irrelevant gunners. UTG.

This isn’t violent conduct btw. A trip is. Please remember this.

What is the point of trying to analyse a game of football when a referee does that? I'm sorry, but you cannot convince me that's anything other than an utterly corrupt decision from an official who has done this to us before - AT THIS VERY GROUND. PGMOL and Oliver can just fuck off.

Mhm. Just not how football happens.

The home kits of the 22 founding Premier League teams.

Lots of atmosphere debate after the last two home games. Got a ticket for the NLD? Didn’t sell it on TX at the first sign of a bad result? BRING YOUR FUCKING DINNER Make home advantage count. No mistakes, no regrets It’s derby day. Your team needs you Up the fucking Gun
