Artetaball. These are all clips of some of the brilliant football Arsenal have played under Arteta.

@femooafc Didn't you say like 2 months ago everyone had a price?

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

@hitaboutit2 My main issue is the same guys who would've laughed if you suggested MLS to start over Zubi itl and would say 'there's no time for experiments' in the run-in are the same guys running victory laps that Teta had him cooking in MF so you can't have wanted him to play there earlier.

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

@oluok1 Obviously not

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

@hitaboutit2 It’s sad ngl, he used to be the franchise and undoubtedly our best player. He’s lost his influence in the team due to injuries.

Especially amongst the masses Rice seems to have overtaken his main status in the team since the Madrid free kicks.

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

It feels weird with Saka because by no means is he playing badly, but he’s lost that inevitable factor he once had. Idk if it’s that injury from last season.

He just looks like another cog rather than the main driver he used to be.

Still our best attacker regardless.

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

We say this every year, but this is a massive window. Not entertaining dynasty talk until I see what we do in the summer.

A good chunk of our players have reached their expiry date.

If we don’t freshen up the squad especially the attack, we’ll pay the price.

@imzftbi @UTDTruth Tbf rivals were more receptive to us winning the league in 22/23 or 23/24 than when we did this season because of the good football, they kind of had to just accept we were a great footballing team

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

So if Arsenal won would God be suddenly real? This logic is ridiculous over football which is not that meaningful in the grand scheme of things.

One of the worst tweets I’ve ever had the displeasure of reading.

[flo @goldengaard]

i hope the bible brothers now know that GOD IS NOT REAL

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

Honestly thank God, we got that EPL trophy over the line this season, imagine we lost like this and went trophyless. Only reason I’m somewhat relaxed right now.

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

It is what it is man, legit couldn’t have lost any worse way.

It’s generic to say it, but proud of the boys to get this far regardless, we go again next year at least with an EPL trophy.

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

This is horrific tape from Gyokeres, can’t get out because the guy can’t make anything stick, missing Kai up top badly

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

Alright man, hate complaining about the refs but they’re taking the mick now, literally have given nothing for us, everything has been in PSG’s favor

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

@thereloadedgun I’m more about us not having any IP threat and just being pushed back because we have no outlets to get out, we’ve defended well.

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

Of course, we needed our outlets on early. We were sinking deeper and deeper and the refs were on our necks only a matter of time.

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

If the game is going to continue in this manner, we gotta get some outlets on the pitch ASAP.

Ødegaard you’ve done a nice job, organizing us defensively, but it’s time for you to come off for Eze.

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

I’ll tell my children about this Gabriel Magalhães performance, blocking shots like his life defends on it, this is simply unreal defending from him.

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

What is that finish bro, I thought he was cutting it back, never believed Kai would strike the ball that hard from there

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

HAVERTZZZZZZZZ OH MY HE HAS THE MINERALSSS

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

@GoodmanBurner Nervous, think we get a spirited 2-1 loss and play similar to how we did at the Etihad

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

Obviously for selfish reasons would much prefer him over Mosquera

[Matthew @_halfspaces]

Honestly wouldn’t be smart on his part to rush himself back for this, considering the WC is 2 weeks after the final. He already played injured against PSG last season and struggled against Kvara.

[HandofArsenal @HandofArsenal]

Jurrien Timber completed first team training today finally. The Dutchman will fly tomorrow with the rest of the squad to Budapest.

Final call to be made tomorrow on matchday squad inclusion.

All the rest is noise, all eyes on Budapest.
