Arsenal kept playing him, promoted him to women and kids, offered him a new contract, and their fans cheered him.
Mikel Arteta talked about being so happy for him “after everything he’s been through.”
Just the most rancid club and fanbase in the world, and it’s not even close.
Harrowing detail in this on the Arsenal parade:

Racial abuse towards officers;
1 person on suspicion of grievous bodily harm in relation to an assault causing a head injury;
1 person after homophobic comments towards an officer.

Tells you everything you need to know about the two clubs.
Arsenal are horrible. How this standard of football can win the league, let alone, the Champions League demonstrates how far the game has fallen. Rank football.
it’s actually crazy how badly arsenal are hated, i think this is the only time a club has been universally hated by everyone this much and everyone’s so happy to watch them fail
