@AmbAgboola @HandofArsenal @AsiwajuLahm Pretty sure at Sir Jim’s Man U, the party is BYO.

@AFCLjB @LeGrove WTF, LjB. I want to respect your opinion, though it’s probably not mine, but you’re coming in way too hot.

Truly great from Mayor Z. Like this from the magnificent Bergkamp:
“When you start supporting a football club, you don't support it because of the trophies, or a player, or history, you support it because you found yourself somewhere there; found a place where you belong."

[The New York Times @nytimes]

From @TheAthleticFC: Zohran Mamdani, the mayor of New York City and a long-time supporter of Arsenal, writes about what it means to see Arsenal win the Premier League trophy and his hopes for Saturday’s Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain. https://t.co/AsazT1WL7L

@TheAthleticFC A brilliant read. The author might amount to something.

[Clinton Macsherry @ClintonMac3]

These are great sporting minds. And they are amplified with their command of competitive athletes’ psychology. Plus, and I think this really matters, authenticity. We succeed together.

[Dr. Rajpal Brar, DPT @3cbPerformance]

True intellect is the ability to apply principles across multiple different realms. Mikel, the staff and players have it in spades. It’s a non negotiable for the club

Arrived in Hungary. This is the current image displayed over Budapest Keleti, the train station closest to the Puskas Arena. #afc

Thank you, KSE. You’ve been 💯 great to support (y)our team and (y)our manager. It feels great to have owners who care. Really.

[The Football Era @Footballera0]

I still find it crazy that both Stan and Josh Kroenke sat on the pitch alongside the players and staffs to take a picture with the Premier League trophy.

They’ve locked in with this club differently.

Thank you, President Obama.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying. I’ll always be grateful to our fallen heroes and their families, whose sacrifice reminds us of what it means to live for something greater than ourselves.

No manager had the mounting pressure and the endless media noise that Mikel Arteta had coming into the season. This was the year of ‘no excuses’ for #Arsenal, and despite having the second most injuries in the league, he found a way to win. Rightly crowned, manager of the season.

[Clinton Macsherry @ClintonMac3]

@SamJDean No. We did it through guts and grit. End of story.

As a Gunners fan in the states since I was 8 years old - it's hard to explain to parents, friends, significant others, loved ones, randoms lol why you get up at 430a on Saturdays, it's hard to explain what it means, it's hard to explain why it's more than a club. All the comments about "yeh just wait until you graduate" or "yeh, wait until you have a real career" or "yeh, wait until you get married" or "yeh, just wait until you have kids". All those things have happened, the Gunners remain a steady through line, no matter what. Just thinking about those mornings and days by myself watching matches or replaying things in my head...it's all worth it man. It's all worth it. More than a club.

I love this club. 22 years we have waited. Enjoy it until your hearts are full. This fanbase is family to me. So so proud of Arteta and the squad. We have done it.
Champions of England.

I promise you this is only the start for this beautiful institution.

COYG 😭❤️

Hey @kevinnbrown of @masnOrioles, how ‘bout a shout for monumental @Arsenal win at West Ham today?!?!

[Clinton Macsherry @ClintonMac3]

Play at the plate!! I’m taking Big Sam Basallo every day and twice on Sunday! #Birdland

[Sam Dean @SamJDean]

With respect to my colleagues in the football writing industry, I am stunned that Bruno Fernandes has been named FWA Footballer of the Year instead of Declan Rice. Rice has literally won more matches this season (35) than Fernandes has even played (34).

Excellent points here. Tim Stillman insightful as always. That said, give me a (winning) block of any form/fashion against PSG and I’ll genuflect until I’m out of knees.

[Tim Stillman ⭐️⭐️ @timstillman_]

A small (and probably barely significant) semantic issue with the way the CL Final is being pitched as some sort of attack v defence fest. Arsenal are not a defensive team at all. They are good at defending. There is a difference. They dominate possession, territory and shots in the majority of games they play- no PL team has scored more goals in the league in 2026. I think you can question or analyse the amount of risk Arsenal take when they have the ball and territory, but I think this description leads to a wider misunderstanding about Arsenal being a team that parks the bus, when they completely and utterly do not. They are solid structurally but any average position map would dispel the notion of a low block team. (The left-back is Calafiori!)

[Clinton Macsherry @ClintonMac3]

@AncientHistorry Yes & no. Absolutely admirable that these stories of Cincinnatus & Gen. Washington be remembered & retold. Cincinnati OH was named after the Society of the Cincinnati, a group of officers who served under Washington & formed to support widows & orphans&preserve his principles.

[LE GROVE @LeGrove]

Man City's net spend is not the most important factor in the discussion about their advantages.

Wages is the real issue. Generally, the best correlation for success in Europe.

City spend £120m a season more than Arsenal a season (£468m total). The gap has been far higher over the past 5 years (more than half a billion over 5 years more than Arsenal).

That extra £121m would get you:

6.6 Bukayo Sakas
10.8 William Salibas
15.38 Jurrien Timbers

The fight is not fair. What Arsenal have done to be in the same conversation is incredible.
