Arsenal have played 19 games so far this season in all competitions. They have won 16, drawn two & lost just one. They have kept 13 clean sheets, failed to score in only one game, netted 42 goals & conceded just seven. And all this despite having between three and seven players out simultaneously.

Arsenal going to first place in the Champions League by beating Bayern Munich, the second place team, at a canter!? I've been dreaming of a moment like this for way too damn long.

This also makes great viewing... #ChampionsLeague2025

has #SlotOut started trending yet? 4-1 #LIVPSG

3 - Liverpool have conceded 3+ goals in three consecutive games in all competitions for the first time since September 1992. Porous.

Gabriel Martinelli has scored in each of his last four Champions League matches. #ARSBAY

A lot of me thinks Arteta should take off Saliba, Zubimendi etc and get the rest playing walking football to preserve energy for Sunday. But another two goals really would make for a particularly delicious narrative treat.

There’s the Manchester United I’ve grown to love and adore.

Still very early in the season but this table makes very happy viewing. #COYG

Reform is a party that says things that appeal to racists, fields racist candidates, fawns over racist world leaders, made a convicted racist guest of honour at their conference, and whose leader refuses to outright deny having racially abused people. If only there were a word for such a party.

I've long assumed that as global warming become more obvious and severe, leaders would come to their senses and ramp up climate action and preparation But the opposite is happening - and I'm starting to fear that my assumption was naive and wildly wrong www.newscientist.com/article/2505...

TROSSARD!!! 1-0 #ARSTOT #NLD

looked fantastic

‘Nigel Farage is racist’ shocker. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Tomorrow's game was already big, as all #NLD are, but now we can go six clear... #ARSTOT

Liverpool loss ✔️ Man City loss ✔️ NLD win for the Gunners... 🤞🏾

What an absolute banger #NowPlaying. Love that trumpet 🎺 Hercules & Love Affair - Blind (Frankie Knuckles Remix) youtu.be/Q4MymPStabI?...

Some of the people in this article have shared their recollections with me before - but on condition of anonymity. Coming forward now is an act of patriotism. Farage’s claim that it never happened is the opposite. (Note also the line about pronouncing his name.) www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-...

Whether running on a charity marathon or volunteering at his local hospital, Jimmy Savile always rocked a unique, sportswear-based look. We take a deep dive into the best fits of this controversial, fashion-forward figure.

you're not alone, completely messes up the domestic season with constant interruptions

Two stories you may not have seen this week that would be a big deal in a normal country: 1) The ‘dossier’ detailing the BBC’s editing of the Trump speech literally edited Trump’s speech. 2) The NBER calculated that Brexit’s longer term damage to GDP was greater than originally forecast.

Sounds about right... www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

really interesting concept to keep an eye on for client discussions....

Is there a prominent Brexiter left who hasn’t torn off their mask to reveal the rancid racism beneath? Boris Johnson’s chief fluffer accusing anyone else of being over-promoted is peak process. The bitterness of insanely privileged men with empty souls knows no bounds.

This is a lovely use of data and visualisation and a wake up call for those who still seem to think Twitter isn't a pernicious platform with questionable motives.

Arsenal have gone 16 games from the start of the season, conceding just three goals - the outright best defensive start to a campaign by any English club in history after 16 matches. #SUNARS

✅Eight wins without conceding ✅Eight clean sheets in a row (matching a record from 1903) ✅David Raya fastest to 50 clean sheets It was a record breaking #UCL night for Arsenal, and we break down six of their best: theanalyst.com/articles/ars...

7 - Arsenal have won seven consecutive games without conceding in all competitions for just the second time in the club’s history, previously doing so between September and October 1987 (also a run of 7). Serious.

Just seen the new John Lewis ad, a middle class, wealthy dad is reminded of his clubbing days by his surly son, goes out and scores some e's and cheap blow from a whimsical animated character in a car park. He's arrested dancing in just a shirt on a roundabout on Boxing day. Where Love Lives plays.

far too early but a great ad nonetheless youtu.be/dc5S4IV_NeA

It's so hard to understand how so many people who have so little would vote for parties who want to take away even more. Same in the US. I guess Racism > poverty.

possibly the best marathon finish ever

God knows how many times this has happened: Zero. Much like Vance lying about Haitian immigrants eating people's pets, this is 100% racist bullshit being spewed by an unabashed white nationalist. Congrats to everyone who patronizes the Nazi bar he runs.

Happy Halloween

I found this lovely painting this morning in my favourite second-hand shop. It's titled: "A Republic's Last Breath". #satire #parody

'Manufactured panic': Immigration not near top of most people's concerns, poll suggests. It'd be nice if the media stopped focusing on Farage his lies/xenophobia/racism & give @zackpolanski.bsky.social et al more air time. Get to hear about issues that actually matter. news.sky.com/story/manufa...

Buckle up.

Seasonal reminder, Pumpkins make Hedgehogs sick, so don't leave any out where they can reach them.

A majority of voters, and a plurality of white voters, think that Reform is a racist party with racist policies.
