Emmanuel Petit on Premier League clubs mocking Arsenal after the final defeat:
🗣️ “I have to say, I found it embarrassing.
The second Arsenal lost, some Premier League clubs couldn't wait to jump on social media and remind everyone about their European trophies.
That tells you everything.
Instead of supporting an English club representing the league on the biggest stage in club football, they were busy celebrating Arsenal's pain.
For me, that's not rivalry. That's insecurity.
Arsenal were 90 minutes away from doing something special, and rather than show respect, people were desperately searching through the history books for old trophies to post online.
Why? Because they were terrified of seeing Arsenal join that club.
Let's be honest, some of these clubs spent the entire season watching Arsenal compete at a level they couldn't reach.
The jealousy was obvious.
The moment Arsenal fell short, they treated it like they had won something themselves.
That's the mentality of people who would rather see Arsenal fail than focus on their own success.
The trophy may have slipped away, but the reaction from some rivals showed exactly how much Arsenal still live rent-free in their heads.”
I believe #KimLittle deserves a statue at the Emirates. It is a matter of time, but it will happen. Absolute legend who's given her body and soul to Arsenal.
A friendship made at @CPFC, reunited in the Champions League ❤️

Referee Melissa Burgin should never again referee any football match that involves the Arsenal women's team. Her performance yesterday was woeful. The WSL must be notified accordingly. We'd probably not even get a letter of apology from the PGMOL.
I think the WSL should end the season now and present the title to their favoured team, Chelsea. What is the point investing all this passion, emotions and work only for a referee to determine she will not play fair and just.
