And it doesn't help that instead of being bold with policy Labour have rolled back
Instead of challenging populism, Labour have brushed it aside
And instead of closer ties with EU, Labour's red lines are the blockers to our economic growth
Labour can still turn it around, but they need to change

Starmer will [massively] exceed public expectations in reducing net migration.
'Will the public notice or believe immigration has fallen? one challenges for using net migration as a key measure & message is that politicians + media overestimate how much public follow the data'

You can knock Odegaard but Saka also had to do more than just wait on touchline, game was crying out for him to be more positionally aware and come inside a little more

Rice going across to double up on Kvaratskhrlia made sense .. it was just the lack of cover from other players ? Merino… maybe, that cost us. No one leaves wingers 1 v 1 these days

It was America (& our) signal and shameful failure to provide the military support we SAID we would give (Budapest Memorandum) in exchange for Ukraine weakening its own defences by surrendering its nuclear weapons that resulted in Putin being able to hold Crimea.

Wow🔥you are on absolutely peak form, love it.
A couple of quibbles:
No mention of Norgaard red card challenge on Martinelli, a game changing decision if ever.
And on Raya being best GK in world on so many metrics yes but I would humbly drop in the mix that a few more penalty saves wouldn’t go amiss

Think it would be remiss not to give some credit to our set piece coach Nicholas Jover….those Declan Rice free kicks were carbon copies of his in swinging corner kicks :)

It’s the injustice of it that stings with me. The perpetuation of the ‘Arsenal red card hall of shame’ myth, half of which were travesties of decisions. I’m not a Christian but I have a strong sense of right and wrong and I feel very viscerally that we are being shafted by PGMOL.

Trust me I’m trying very hard to give them the benefit of the doubt but it’s getting harder as the evidence mounts!
The conspiracy concept worked when it was City and all their dosh but now the Scousers?
Maybe the conspiracy is that it’s anyone but Arsenal.

Good to have you back Mike.
Personally I’m trying hard to stick to the cock-up rather than conspiracy theory of refereeing but it ain’t easy. Where it makes sense is that they just haven’t liked us since the Wenger years. Not sure they liked us much under George either but it didn’t show back then.

I wonder if “he gets it” Starmer has even read this article about Palantir and Musk’s mate Peter Theil. If he hasn’t then he definitely DOESN’T “get it”
I can see a function for AI….but THIS?!
