They said “even if he wins it, he has to walk”
Walk we will…into the UCL Final unbeaten.
They didnt believe in us, they didnt resonate with your “message”
Is the message clear enough now?!
Seeing loads of such nonsense all day on this platform. Great example of herd mentality which doesn't require any critical thinking skills. You don't have to like Arsenal and Arteta. Please watch the other 19 teams who are playing such lovely football every single week.
Can't remember the last time I saw so many rival fans dislike a team as much as this Arsenal side.
There is almost nothing to like, from manager to playing style to on-field antics.
Imagine that much talent, and spending that much money, only to choose to play like this!
The audacity of Jim Ratcliffe, a British billionaire who migrated to Monaco to avoid paying taxes, but was trying to get UK taxpayer money to enable his stadium project, saying this.
Using ‘colonised’ when actual British colonialism resulted in over 100 million Indian deaths between 1881-1920 alone, transportation of 3.5 million African slaves, and an endless array of other atrocities with the impact still being felt today.
And when the success of Manchester United, on the field and commercially, is in large part dependent on foreigners.
Vile, vile, vile.
🧵Who is Francesca Orsini?
Many people here have expressed ignorance about her work. Lets change that.
Her google scholar profile mentions that she has 2500+ academic citations.
That’s over two thousand published journal articles or academic books referencing her work.1/n
We have a poster now! Come join academics and activists involved in solidarity and resistance in the Med, the Channel, the Atlantic and beyond for a one-day conference in Brum ✨

"Yesterday, we were hanged fighting for India's freedom
And today, for speaking our mother's tongue, we become Bangladeshi?"
Powerful protest poster by East Bengal fans at a Durand cup match today.
Doubly significant given the club's principal support base consists of Partition refugees.

If dishonest intellectuals manipulated by social media are done with comparing India to Israel and Pakistan to Palestine, I suggest they invest more time in researching how the Pakistani state has used terror to hurt and destabilise India for decades and continues to do so.
India targetted the terror camps in which few civilians got killed, and the entire narrative was that Ind are attacking civilians & starting a war.
Pak has been targetting civilian areas 3 days in a row, yet somehow they are the victims.
Nauseating stuff.
