Christopher Nolan on the timeless appeal of #Batman 🦇
"The Batman mythology ... one of the reasons It's continuously interesting [and] continuously reinvented by new generations ... is because of [that] essential idea of a good vigilante.

Granit Xhaka on wanting to leave Arsenal after the incident against Crystal Palace: “The club showed me little respect even though I was the captain. It was clear they wanted to get rid of me as quickly as possible, apart from one person. Mikel Arteta.”
“When I met him for the first time, my bags were already packed & I was about to hop on a plane. With my heart & soul, I had already left the club. I said to him, ‘The solution is for me to go’. Mikel told me he wanted me to stay, but I wasn’t sure. I remember speaking to my dad at the time, he told me, ‘Let’s go’. For the first time ever, he told me to run away. He said there was no future for me at Arsenal.”
“I could not imagine myself playing for Arsenal again. I said to him [Arteta], ‘I just want to be somewhere where the fans don’t boo me’, but he was so convincing. For the first time in my life, I took a decision without talking to my family first. I got up & said, ‘Ok, I’ll stay’. We embraced & from that day on, I returned to training & it was like nothing ever happened.” [@TheAthleticFC] #afc
