I still can't believe we actually let Man United fans bully Arsenal fans and talk crazy on our timeline after the UCL Final, completely forgetting that this video exists on the internet... 😭
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.”
Morning.
Everyone still embarrassing themselves and losing their heads over a correct decision which for once actually shows that VAR works?
Yep, thought so.
@mohithegoat Wtf, now that you mention it I can definitely see it. Maybe his style is heavily influenced by Izzy. Both African and lives in a similar region of the world too.

🗣️“If someone is not ready for this game, stay at home. If you’re nervous, stay at home. Don’t come here. We need people to have balls.”
Think this still applies…
