Don’t let this title rivalry with Arsenal blind you to the fact that Arsenal are by far the biggest club in London. Chelsea had a period, they were irrelevant before it and irrelevant after it.
ما عمري كنت مقتنع بانزو ماريسكا كمدربنا القادم بعد بيب
لكن لما اشوف تشلسي من بعده، أقدر أكثر اللي سواه مع شلة البزارين المجمعة
بيئة السيتي المستقرة والسكواد اللي عندنا ممكن نوصل مواصيل عالية معه
This is copium as its finest level
Arsenal fans have realistically lost the league, and to the same team they have lost to 2 times before
Telling themselves this must make the loss feel better
It is like when madrid rivals argue luck and referees are the reason behind their 15 ucls
You may as well cry!
Have wondered about this. Here’s my theory: I think it’s sort of the opposite. But it is born, at least in part, in the place you’re talking about. I don’t think it’s love; I think it’s a kind of indifference. By which I mean, it’s like City don’t count and people — who see them (whether rightly or wrongly) as operating on a different plane and with different rules etc — are kind of resigned to them and have reached an acceptance. So, for fans of teams like, say, Liverpool or (even) United (despite being rivals in Manchester), if City win the league: shrug, yeah, whatever, what you gonna do? If this year Arsenal or in previous years Liverpool win the league — who you are competing with on the same level, who are your peers/challengers, for want of a better word, whose title win would be as good as yours would have been — it actually does hurt and it does mean something. It’s a “real” title win…and thus, by extension, a real title loss for your team. And I suspect that goes beyond just fans of those teams too to become more generalized. I know, I know, plenty of people will really dislike this, from both sides of the argument, and I might have to hide from the @s now as they all shout at me, but it’s about people’s perceptions and I reckon there’s something in that.
Anyway, sorry: a long tweet. Just a theory.
بغض النظر عن الأرقام اللي التفوق فيها لشرقي
نرجع ونقول احنا عندنا عيون ونتابع كورة، الأرقام مش كل الحكاية
شرقي يقدم كورة ممتعة للعين، تأثيره في المباريات واضح، مساهماته تأثيرها ��كبر على موسم السيتي ونتايج مبارياته من فيرتز
ككل شتان بين اللاعبَين واللي قدموه هالموسم
رغم أني أشوف مباراة الأحد غير مقبول فيها شيء غير الفوز
بحكم أن كل ��يء لصالحك,
المباراة في ملعبك، الزخم معك، فنيا أنت أفضل، فورمتك بعد التوقف الدولي أفضل بفارق، أرسنال بيجيك يرجف
مع ذلك التعادل مش نتيجة كارثية، لسبب واحد، أرسنال مستحيل يمسك سكة انتصارات
