Cold light of day, Liverpool absolutely deserve another title for what they have done over the last 7-8 years, especially as they have almost certainly had titles taken from them due to *redacted* I remain confident Arsenal will do it under Arteta.

😖 it has been feeling like this wasn’t to be our season for some time and my mind had kind of given up with all the shit getting in our way. But as a fan there’s always a glimmer of hope. Today was hard to take. I really hope this team, with additions, can go on to win the biggest prizes 🙏🏻🤞🏻. Please!

@aallensport.arseblog.com lovely Blog today. I needed that slap in the face maybe. Definitely feel the slog, but can also see we have something very special to watch. And hopefully it does lead to glory in the next few months/years

On the night of that awful first leg v Newcastle I went to see my knee doctor before the game and bumped into Tomi there. He was limping and didn’t look right. Arsenal staff kept saying “we’re all good” and paranoid about a pic inside the hospital… Arsenal docs left the surgeon’s office a bit later

Merino gets one more and Arsenal won’t sign a striker in the summer

Funny thing is that Havertz would probably have put the hat first one wide and shot the second against the keeper 🤣. To be clear, I love Kai but that was very clinical from Merino 🙂

It sucks living in the universe where Biff has the Almanac

😫😖😣😔😱🫣😭

When you hold a musician to a higher standard of truth-telling to power than your own newspaper.

This week’s column. Some (not all) of the coverage I have seen of Myles Lewis Skelly over the last 10 days or so has bothered me. It’s clear many of us are still not mindful enough and do not take due care with language and framing when it comes to talking about black footballers 👇🏻

Most know what I think, been saying the same for years. From the black club, to the French club & now the all inclusive club. When I hear “same old Arsenal always cheating” every week (& repeatedly when playing the leagues dirtiest team) I know where it comes from. It’s deep rooted biases & isms.

We should send a comp of Saliba tonight to Real Madrid

I love the psychology around a two-legged tie, which points to the eternal optimism of even the most pessimistic of football fans. You can lose 2-0 at home in the first leg and be certain it's over. Then once the 2nd leg arrives, the hope creeps in. "An early goal could make all the difference..."

@lgambrose.bsky.social loved the tactics column on @arseblog.com DAMN indeed. We are so far away from that game up there in 2023. 🤗

Nwaneri came on the 84th minute. He had more touches than Haaland.

Mikel Arteta's team talk next week ;)
