Turns out that being donated a win against a newly promoted team thanks to a slip, a freak own goal and a penalty isn't the sign of potential champions.
Weird.
Arsenal have never ever set up to play “defensive football” we are just absolutely fucking amazing at defending when we lose the ball. That absolutely kills other fans. When we don’t concede. Because they want us to. And they call it boring as a result because the entertainment they want is Arsenal conceding. 🤣🤣
Dear Chelsea fans,
-You’ve got the best goalkeeper in the world, apparently better than Raya.
-You’ve strengthened the defence with Lacroix (£52m), Pep Chavarría (€21m) and Palestra (€55m).
-You’ve got Morgan Rogers, who you say is better than Tzolis.
-You’ve got experienced Welbeck backing up Joao Pedro.
-Palmer is “back” and, according to you lot, better than Odegaard. 😂
-And you’re only playing in the Premier League, so you’ll have all the time in the world to rest and prepare.
So when March 2027 comes and Arsenal are leading the title race, please don’t start telling us you’re “willingly” losing to Man City just to stop us winning the league.
We’ll be watching.
My football highlight of the year has been watching my club lift the Premier League title.
Your football highlight of the year has been Arsenal missing out on a transfer target.
We are not the same.
