This dude was a traitor to the club, vs Mikel who has shown unfailing love for the Arsenal…

🎙️Van Persie on Arteta in 2019:

"Arsenal can't win the title with Arteta as their manager, I don't hate him but as pundits we need to say the truth...

Arsenal need a manager that has won a lot of trophies & with a winning mentality deposited in the players.

He won't give Arsenal a major trophy even if he stays another 10 years at the club."

7 years later.… guess who is jobless and has proven he can’t deposit a winning mentality in his players.🙌😅

@TrollFootball You British? You guys literally created the word soccer.

@ishapiro I tried to explain this situation a few months ago. https://t.co/1Yq0baugoS

If you want to know why things have gotten so bad between the @ChicagoBears and Illinois/Chicago politicians that the Bears could very well leave Illinois completely, you have to understand what happened with the Soldier Field expansion 25 years ago…🧵

[Rod Drobinski @RDrobinski]

@brian_callaci You’re correct. England created the sport of soccer and specifically the term “soccer” - slang for “association football” which distinguished it from rugby. Thus, no American should take any crap from any UK person for calling it the term THEY INVENTED…IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE

@thescorechicago @SenCunningham The Bears only want the same property tax break that the state and locality have given to LITERALLY EVERY OTHER SPORTS FRANCHISE IN ILLINOIS.

@RezaUSVI @Chicago_NFL @BrodmonFR That’s not true either. They have the political weight in the legislature and are the biggest reason nothing has moved forward on AH in the last 5 years. They’re blocking anything happening for the Bears that helps them move out to AH.

[Rod Drobinski @RDrobinski]

Comparing Millennium Park with SF is apples and oranges. “People complaining” has nothing to do with all this. The Bears want/need to own their own stadium (along with the other revenue from the facility). If the Bears leave, they’ll leave SF (which is not an all year venue) vacant and they’ll be building a competing and better facility. Chicago can’t have that so they’re holding the move to AH hostage. The Chicago demands in all this are linked to everything I just laid out - they want money to renovate SF again, and money to pay off the debt still owed.

[Rod Drobinski @RDrobinski]

A couple of problems with this rendition - 1) the debt that’s owed on the renovation is a result of govt mismanagement of the debt, not the Bears. The Bears and NFL put up $100 mil apiece up front on a stadium neither own; the remaining 380 mil was financed by the city and they didn’t make a single payment toward principle for the first 7 or 8 years. 2) the other unmentioned major problem with SF is the space is severely limited to do any expansion. That original $380ish mil in debt still owed is $450-550 and none of that mismanaging is on the Bears. Nonetheless, Chicago politicians have been insisting that if the Bears wanted to leave, they should pay off the debt.

[Rod Drobinski @RDrobinski]

@BarroomNetwork 2 things - First, the line “same level of tax certainty the team would have received in AH” doesn’t make any sense. They don’t have any property tax certainty as it stands at AH which is the hold up. Second, how the heck would “publicly owned but privately financed work?
