🚨🗣️ | Pep Guardiola Shocked on Arsenal fans Reaction towards Gabriel Magalhaes after missing the Penalty: 🤯
“I have to say something because I saw this and, honestly, it blew my mind. It blew my mind. We know how this business works. Usually, in a Champions League final, a player misses a crucial penalty against a top, top team like PSG, and the next day... it is a disaster for him. The social media, the media, it can be very, very cruel. Very ugly. You expect the anger, the threats, the terrible words. We see it all the time.
But what the Arsenal fans did for Gabriel? Wow. It is something else. Truly. To see a player fail in the most painful moment, and the response from the stadium, from the people, is just... pure love? I am told his shirt sales went up by three hundred and fifty percent in a few days. Three hundred and fifty percent! This is incredible. I have been in football a long, long time, as a player and a manager, and I have never seen anything like it. Never.
You know, you open Facebook, you open Instagram or Twitter, and the narrative is always the same. 'Arsenal fans are insufferable. They are the worst fanbase, they are annoying.' You hear this tag all the time. But I look at this gesture and I think, 'How?' How do they have this tag? If a fanbase can wrap their arms around a player like that, in the darkest moment of the club's history a trophy they have been dying to win for decades then everything we are told online is a lie. It is a massive misconception. They have been judged so harshly.
This shows me who they really are. It shows their class, their humanity, and their loyalty. To behave like this? It is not annoying, it is not insufferable. It is beautiful. They deserve incredible praise for this, because this is what football should be about”
The day I knew football is cooked was when we piped City 5-1 last season, and the media and rival fans started dragging us instead of City. That shit still hilarious. 🤣
@DavidHartley21 People on Twitter are actually illiterate. ‘We WERE on the verge..’ he’s not wrong. He’s saying IF we won the champions league as well we would have been immortal because Arsenal has never won the champions league 🤦
nobody wanted Arsenal to win the Prem because we thought their fans were gonna be unbearable and annoying, but whats ended up happening is everyone else has become completely unbearable instead, crying and belittling their achievements as much as possible just to fuel agendas
Guys downplaying winning the Premier League like it’s some nothing trophy because we didn’t finish 2nd so they shift goalposts every time. Lol we are so so back
Arsenal won the same amount of games (45) as Chelsea (26) and Man Utd (19) TOGETHER this season.
Stop getting rattled by fan bases who spend their whole season watching Arsenal fight for every title while their teams where playing for nothing since November.
It's the *most* talented sport. Because it's the only sport I can think of where the two 'GOATs' are completely different in every physical way; and where 5'2 and 6'7 can play at the same level.
American sports are literally just "be massive". Congratulations you're the winner.
can we as a fanbase stop crying about the parade in general. waited 22 years for this shit, meet up with your friends//family and make it a day you’ll remember forever. we’ve begged for days like this as a fanbase now all I see is people complaining
EPL is genuinely stupid, can't even be bothered at this point. A league where you have three clubs in a European finals with one of them winning the league, yet the best player of they year award has gone to a guy that plays for the 3rd best team in the country that finished 20pts behind the title winners. You'll never see this level of foolishness in any other leagues in Europe
