So there we go, KMI panel voted 5-0 unanimously that it was correct not to send Gabriel off vs Chelsea

“Multiple players were on the ground competing and challenging for the loose ball, the action of Gabriel was not deemed to be an act of violent conduct or serious foul play”

Hilarious this narrative that is desperately being pushed about Arsenal benefitting from referees

The only actual clear and obvious mistake made in an Arsenal game this season went against us

[Sash ~ @ltarsenal]

The same guys who told Arteta to take accountability and stop blaming referees are now telling you referees favour Arsenal.

The same guys who called Arsenal soft and told us to grow a spine are now complaining about our physicality.

The same guys who told Arsenal to learn the “dark arts” now complain about our game management.

The same guys who turned every Arsenal celebration into a controversy now demand passionate players who connect with the fans.

The same guys who mocked our set pieces are hiring set-piece coaches.

The same guys who mocked the “Arteta process” now want young managers, cultural resets and long-term projects.

At some point you realise it was never really about any of those things.

They just don’t like Arsenal.

Arsenal (2.27) 2-1 (0.36) Chelsea

When your celebration meaning gets used against you😂😂😂

Iced out.

Arsenal are playing with the belief of champions. Arsenal are now really expressing themselves. They’ve become really good to watch. There’s a confidence and fluidity to them, knowing they can punish teams from open play, either through speed in transition, especially wide, or through their slick passing embodied by Odegaard. And they have the set-piece armoury.

Players all over the field taking responsibility from Raya in goal to Odegaard looking a real leader now. Odegaard MOTM against Chelsea. Leaders all over. Rice, Gabriel etc. That’s why they’re champions. Physically and mentally tough. That’s why they will believe they can resist Manchester City’s very obvious threat. Exciting title race in prospect.

Konsa looks like he’s been at Arsenal for ages. He’s slotted into a smooth machine, a brotherhood, a strong dressing-room. Konsa started with Mosquera absent. Arsenal have such strength in depth: Hincapie came on for Calafiori; Zubimendi for Lewis-Skelly; Gyokeres for Havertz; Merino for Odegaard; and Madueke for Saka. Left on bench: Bruno G, Eze, Dowman and Kepa. Plus Saliba and Timber to return. Yes, Arsenal miss an A-list left-winger and centre-forward. But they have so much talent/character. City will need to be at their very best to outlast them over the title course. #AFC #ARSCHE

The worst thing about this is the way he thinks it's funny.

🚨🔴⚪️ BREAKING: Bruno Guimarães to Arsenal, HERE WE GO! 🇧🇷

Agreement in place with Newcastle after long talks and personal terms in place with Bruno since July. Fee worth £75m.

New midfielder for Mikel Arteta. 🔜

🚨 Arsenal have positioned themselves to act immediately should Julian Alvarez indicate he wants to join the club, sources have told TEAMtalk, with Andrea Berta maintaining regular contact with the player’s representatives.

Arsenal are prepared to break the current British transfer record if that is what it takes to sign Alvarez, however, internally, there is a belief that any deal with Atletico Madrid would be completed well below that level.

TEAMtalk understands Arsenal’s plans for Alvarez sit entirely separate from the rest of their summer transfer budget, meaning a move for the player would NOT prevent them from pursuing another major attacking signing. 🕵️‍♂️🇦🇷 [@GraemeBailey]
