Don't try and do the working out behind the rankings, it's really not worth it

Know it's a UEFA vs FIFA thing, but the fact that the club world cup has not had a single mention is pretty telling don't you think

I will go to war for Renne Slegers and my football club, now officially the best team in the world

Earps having to hand the best keeper trophy to Hampton is definitely something...

Been trying to argue this: Pragmatism for control against a team wielding a forward like Haaland (genuinely all time level output) is risky in itself! If you do concede (quite likely because Erling) then the whole approach is completely redundant. Just trust you’re a better team playing at home

Good not to lose (and our goal was brilliant) but we threw away 45 minutes, and barely created anything afterwards despite going behind in the 10th minute. I love that we can be pragmatic and dig in - but we don’t have that inevitability gene to kick the door down. A point gives us nothing today.

That really felt like a game that Arsenal and Mikel Arteta just could not lose. A special goal to equalise late on, but the way we dominated Man City with that second half performance, with the players we had on the pitch, will be a source of regret. We should be braver from the start.

This half falls squarely on the feet on Mikel Arteta's selection and approach. You can't be sheepish at home against ANYONE when you're going for the title. Anfield away sure, but not today when you got all the tools available.

Imagine have a corner acca on this match, lord have mercy open your eyes referee

Giant Katie Reid shall not be moved

Nice surprise to get a Rosa Kafaji golazo and assist during the Agyemang loan watch. We'll take it

Tarzan Boy on repeat, between that and Statlander, lovely live affirming stuff on a sad night elsewhere #AEWAllOut

Seeing Alex Iwobi play well makes me feel very content

Chelsea running Cole Palmer into the ground is it? Injuries inevitable when you treat your players like that is it?

fell into a Rage Against the Machine-athon on my journey home and it's straight up chilling how fucking relevant it all is in 2025

COMPETITION FOR PLACES FC

Huge goal for Martinelli that, absolutely fair fucks to yaa

So often when working, awful things like this happen and we have to just work through it, only to get hit by a wall of emotion when I clock off. Kid version of me absolutely adored him, his story and the army of fans he took everywhere he went. Genuinely changed my life x

that CWFC hate watch was an all-timer, Aston Villa women don't ever speak to me ever again

I grew up loving and adoring Ricky Hatton as a kid getting into boxing. Absolutely stunned. RIP

Get this fella Karel Prince who is fact checking old footballers on podcasts a commercial deal ASAP. Original and genuinely hilarious content - www.instagram.com/reel/DOd3kYB...

What? Unai Emery's team has not scored a goal this season? Oh nooo. What? Unai Emery brought Victor Lindelof on as a midfielder in the second half? Oh dear, what a shame

Comfortably winning a Premier League football match without Saka, Ode, Saliba and Rice. I am moved.

Dagenham, where summer goes to die (along with Arsenal's title aspirations inside the first week of the season)

goodness gracious this chigwell construction stadium is cursed I tell you

Wondering how Gareth Taylor's first day in his new job is going.... Oh dear. Oh well.

This is now an Olivia Smith stan account x

⭐️⭐️ the only in the bloody land

Spent my lunch break reading and watching stuff about Wally. Now I am sad.

Reiss Nelson and his agent locked into the same impasse as me and my estate agent. Everything outside the M25 is lava

Nice guys finish last. Isak acts like a prick all summer and by hook or by crook gets what he wants with a deadline day move to Liverpool. Guehi acts like a consummate pro and continues to play and respect his employer and he's the one who gets shafted at the final hour.

Oh nothing, just the actual Prime Minister telling people they’re entirely correct to drive asylum seekers out of their communities

Arseblog exclusive. Understand Arsenal Women want to bring in Swiss midfielder Geraldine Reuteler from Frankfurt behind Thursday’s transfer deadline 👇🏻

Glasner slapping Emery like this is affirming that good and light can triumph over evil and darkness, sometimes.

Fwiw Arne Slot’s ability to make changes and give instructions to completely flip matches in-game is unmatched in the Premier League. Curtis Jones sub to shit on Zubi is why they sneaked today. He does it again and again and again

It feels like so much of the conversation around Arsenal is coloured by a weird folk memory of the 0-0 at the Etihad. It’s now got to the stage where they can outshoot the champions at Anfield but be decried for their caution because of a Szobszlai screamer.

First half has me greedy, I want the win. Got to remember a point is still a better result for us than for them. That, at Anfield without Saliba, Ødegaard, Saka, Havertz, was excellent.

Remember a lot of Arsenal fans pearly clutching when I raised 'having a difficult conversation about Martinell' at the beginning of last season, and well, here we are

David Brooks, you have my attention

Time to finally cash in the Caro Garcia stocks. Andy Murray, I can't feed my family now, hope you're happy

🚨 My sources tell me Arsenal have just now put in a bid to sign Thomas Frank as #AFC assistant dog walker for Win - subject to puproval and medical. Frank prioritises escaping Spurs at all costs. More to come when I get it.

YouTube currently offering up adverts to suggest that Palestinians are not actually being starved by Israel in Gaza, that this is all lies from the biased media. The dystopia is truly here already.

It’s just objectively true. Weeks and weeks of pro-Palestine marches were ignored until someone vandalises something. Now the reporting is gleeful as protesters are arrested. 100,000 people marched through London for Trans Pride to support trans rights amidst unprecedented state attacks. Silence.

good god, christ on a bike, that's the gnarliest thing I've ever seen in a ring and believe you me, I've seen some fucking horrendous shit man #AEWForbiddenDoor

Man United supporters in a Bruno Fernandes civil war, at least we get a new storyline around their shower of shite this year

said I like it, I like it, I like it, whoaaaaaaa

what the fuck is this headline from the BBC, I feel like I'm losing my mind www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Driving to Cornwall and “Freed from Desire” came on the radio. Now a little bit emosh as remembering all this - @hushkerai.bsky.social Still cannot believe it and looking forward to seeing the trophy again at the start of the season.

Get Nuno to West Ham and big Ange to Forest and let's get this season really cooking - because this is just beyond shite

It is very nearly the tenth anniversary of that brief moment when, for 2 or 3 days, British newspapers remembered refugees are desperate human beings who need our help, rather than scum that it's okay to threaten with violence.
