Comment: amid all the debate about Chelsea, the most serious point has been overlooked A now-sanctioned oligarch was able to manipulate English football through industrialised cheating - and this is barely addressed The meaning of the payments is as big www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

Wenger got mocked and memed for years on end while other clubs, particularly Chelsea, had to break the law repeatedly to beat his Arsenal side. It is shameful but of course capitalism has no shame.

As a Manchester United fan I rightly expect absolutely no sympathy for the abject state of my club. I will also say: Wenger's Arsenal overwhelmed Manchester United fair and square, while Chelsea and Manchester City didn't, and football as a whole is still paying a huge price for that.

Kinsky saves that, get him on

MAX DOWMAN. 16 YEARS OLD. ETCH THAT INTO EMIRATES HISTORY, ARSENAL HISTORY, PREMIER LEAGUE HISTORY!

Stuart Attwell on VAR has taken a bung. No one is that incompetent

That Arsenal penalty is corrupt. VAR didnt watch it

That's 100% a penalty. VAR choosing not to see the obvious contact.

I’m very tempted to send Tottenham some money. They’re tapping in to Arsenal fans thirst for merch. shop.tottenhamhotspur.com/spurs-nike-m...

Some Tottenham fans are already leaving the stadium 😬

Ludicrous

Never forget: 8 years ago a random person on Craigslist wrote the most effective ad for the Toyota Corolla, ever.

Declan Rice done it to them again 😭

Why has the signing of England's best centre back and best form winger in prem gone under the radar in January? They cant afford it but its fine by the media/socials

Well done Saudi Arabia

‘Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks

#NLD history thread. Seeing as it's that time for that lot up the road to start whining about how hard done by they were over 100 years ago (when we really know they weren't), I thought I'd write a thread about how grateful Middlesex Hotspur fans should be to Arsenal AND Henry Norris. 1/12

Disneyland Paris McDonalds is a fucking disaster. Never seen a McDonalds more poorly run.

Pam Bondi: "There is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime." Rep Lieu: "You just lied under oath." Bondi: "Don't you ever accuse me of a crime." Lieu: "This is all on videotape... I’m showing you evidence." #OpDeathEaters #EpsteinCoverup #EpsteinFiles

Foden awful tackle - yellow card Same as Xavi, same as Gordon, where was the red card?

Tnt sports are saying arsenal game has finalised 3-1 but everyone on here says its 3-2.

‘Ethan Nwaneri scores 13 minutes into his Marseille debut!! #Arsenal #AFC #Gunners #Marseille

Howard Webb's on VAR

Where is VAR?

Its handball.

Gov. Gavin Newsom of California called global leaders "pathetic" on Tuesday for failing to stand up to President Trump amid his push to acquire Greenland, saying that Europeans needed to have a "backbone." Follow live updates from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. trib.al/lDW2vIl

This is absolutely brilliant stuff. www.ft.com/content/ad94...

Arsenal have gone 116 games in all competitions since they last conceded three goals in a game to any opponent - the best run by any team in the history of English football. #BOUARS

Give a lifetime contract to the ball boy who made Martinez walk all the way over to him at 2-0 then dropped the ball at his feet. Even better, Martinez picked up the ball cone and moved it closer for his next goal-kicks, and the ball boy moved it back.

The ball in play time in that first half was just a bit more than 24 minutes. Aston Villa wasted nearly 18 minutes there. They got exactly what they wanted trying to shorten the match.

Aston Villa have scored 20 goals in their last eight wins off an Expected Goals of 12.1. Emery's side have conceded nine goals off an xG Against of 12.5. Arsenal need to take their chances on Tuesday because it looks like Villa are riding a wave of good fortune.

Clear foul on Gibbs-White for city goal

Jefferson Lerma has committed 7 yellow card fouls tonight.

Clearest red ever

Oliver Holt actually talking some sense in the Mail.

Team for Wednesday v Brighton? Kepa, White, Mosquera, Hincapie, MLS, Norgaard, Nwaneri, Merino, Dowman, Trossard, Martinelli. ?????

Christ, Howard Webb has come up with some utter shite about that penalty being rightly overturned when last season the penalty against Brighton, it didn’t matter that Saliba played the ball

Jared Gillett. Can't referee Liverpool games because he's a fan, can be part of 66% of Arsenal's opening 6 games.

That is a disgrace

Bruno Guimarães has been penalised for more fouls (15) against Arsenal in his Premier League career than versus any other opponent and been booked twice. He's committed 14 against Man City and been booked seven times. #NEWARS

Joelinton has committed 23 fouls against Spurs in his Premier League career and been booked seven times. He's committed 21 fouls against Arsenal and been booked once. #NEWARS

LiVARpool again. What is the point!

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

No wonder we took so long trying and failing to get Sesko to sign. We kept offering him a pen, he kept refusing to take it.

Bobby! 😍

Hahahaha #spursy

Personally I think it’s great that Kenny Dalglish is on VAR today.

Arguably the greatest thing ever committed to print

Madueke done. Much less than we think

@goonerak.bsky.social random question for you, do you know if Arsenal had a young aussie in the reserves in late 1990s?
