happy to see another pickup vb group sprouting up near me just as summer arrives! this one is at a park near tufts and very close to me - super - although biking might be a tad uphill 🏐

feels like so much happy arsenal news had masked for a few days what a complete shitshow this country is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

me: it’s a wonderful time for arsenal, let’s set aside these receipts. less petty vengeance, more joyful celebration bukayo saka: WE’RE GONNA HUNT DOWN THE M’FING HATERS LIKE A PREDATOR PROWLING IN A JUNGLE

i like to think of martin here as holding up two fingers 😉

My daughter just gave me this photo she found. She has no clue the significance of it. Summer of 2004 😊

congrats to strand larsen. first the girl with the dragon tattoo, now the guy with the european trophy. a real double trouble renaissance man

i know there's still time for nervousness to descend, but right now i'm very relaxed and excited for the cl final. for the *cl* *final*. what a weird feeling

if only palace could have held onto guehi, they might have won a european trophy this season

if arsenal make it a trifecta on *checks date three times* saturday, bruno fernandes gets another award. don't let him down, gunners

commentator: congratulations to crystal palace, but now we go to tottenham stadium - for wonderful images of the celebrating team that beat relegation through blood and sweat. de zerbi, what a manager

congrats to palace! two english teams win in europe, hopefully one more to do it on sunday ☺️

You won’t see a better celebration by Palace until Andrew dies.

sick

oh so close to 2-0

how do you let wharton just dribble forward for 17 minutes straight, weird move

PAAAALLAAAAAAAAACEEEEEEEEEE

adding calendar item to go & belt out the saliba song from the sidewalks when they're here

berta: that's right. 20mil for jesus. no. you heard me right. two. zero. twenty. you better move fast. if we win on sunday, it's going to be 35mil. minimum. your move

To me it reads more like "Tottenham are buying a 1983 Plymouth Reliant".

"andy robertson is going to tottenham" to me is like reading "andy robertson is buying a cybertruck". like good luck buddy but why

i hate ballrooms but i love palaces

i didn't like gordon's on-field personality so i am glad he won't be an arsenal player next season 😇

someone should make a full spider-man suit out of arsenal kits, like the one mayor mamdani was wearing

hector 🥰

would be lovely to see timber do a mertesacker on sunday

I was walking around a small town in the west of Ireland last night when I saw this house. I stopped and talked to the owner. I asked how she came to support Arsenal and turns out that she used to work in the Gunners Bar.

Where is Zubimendi's nom?!

PSA: What Mamdani is wearing is not a thobe, guys. A thobe is a robe/long shirt that goes to the floor. That’s a kurta. Thank you for your attention.

i didn't watch a few matches this season for this or that reason, but the one i wish i'd seen - very much in hindsight! - is the west ham away with the interminable var delay that was called correctly 🤭

Those 3 days in April were absolute torture

Making a thread for planning purposes

We thoroughly deserve to be in the CL final, we’ve been the best team in it. The weight has been lifted now, and this is a completely free shot. I’m going to love these guys as much as I do now even if they lose. If they win, however, I’m going to fall in love with them in a whole new way.

huh i didn't expect the arsenal parade route to go straight thru the middle of the pitch at tottenham stadium, bravo to the planners

I’ll tell ya what. It did not feel like this lol

ironic that there are two women of korean descent in the world of sports both with names starting with k, and one is great and one is... not great

If Martinelli really does end up leaving this summer, I'll have so many fond memories of him, but the one that stands out most to me is a friendly they played here in Colorado in 2019 against the Rapids. Some 17 year old kid named Bukayo Saka scored the first goal and I thought he might... (1/3)

my youtube watch later playlist, before & after 😅

adore this man, man

remember this 🥰

i forgot - their final is today! good luck to palace ☺️

do you think mikel has finally returned the pickpocketed wallets back to the players now that they've won the league 🤔

Meanwhile, watching Arsenal

can't believe it's only may and i've already watched the best movie of the year 🥰

🥰

ugh ok if you all insist, i will watch a video with gary neville in it 🙄🥲😅

tangential: as much as i've often liked crystal palace in this way or that, from now on i will always have a small and deep fondness for the club and their stadium based on sunday's memories

I had made a Google Maps list for my visit to the Emirates. I added a few pubs I know that take walk-ins for the CL final (based on the Reddit post). I'd love some more recommendations or suggestions; I could definitely add to it. maps.app.goo.gl/GayG4ySBVLxm...

not going to london for the cl final 🥲 but looks like several mutuals are traveling & looking for info. maybe it'd be useful and fun for someone to compile info in one place for out-of-town gooners? family friendly pubs, places to avoid, etc. i don't mean to make homework for someone 😅 just an idea
