That Average Fan

Football opinions from an Arsenal fan, hopefully mostly positive ones!

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

Not good enough. Just not good enough.

@WelBeast Don't accept loss, be upset that we didn't win! You can't pick your trophies, especially not us! Belittling a trophy we would've celebrated like crazy for isn't good. Break now, players coming back, the run-in is as ruthless as ever!

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

@PeakSxnti No, the most annoying part is that everyone in OUR fanbase will be trying to find one singular player to put all the blame on. I understand putting the blame on someone right after the game, but after an hour or two people should have some sense in their heads...

@WelBeast Together till the end, 4 defeats all season, regroup and go back stronger, still 3 to play for.

@AFC_Monty_ I don't agree, the first goal was a mistake (Granted he should've stopped the ball but whatever), the second was a very difficult save if he had gotten it. Kepa wasn't the biggest problem, parking the bus was. Now we learn, grow, and use the anger as fuel. Get behind the team!!

@ArsenalN7 Missing Øde, BADLY

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

@ArsenalN7 Parking the bus was the wrong move, keeping Hincapié on after the yellow, was correct until half time, then Cala should've come on. Trossad is invisible, take Martinelli on earlier. Don't take this too hard, after all, everyone told us it was just the carabo cup. Onto the next.

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

Game's over, time to calm down, first goal was a mistake, and the second was just annoying. 3 competitions, 3 trophies. Don't think of the trophy at the end, think of the next match. Stand behind the boys, especially now that they feel they've let us down. Øde and Eze back soon.

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

Bad day in the office, and the one time I allowed myself any over confidence. Sorry but Arteta got this one wrong, Hincapié early car, should've been switched at half, Trossard invisible, we take Martinelli in in the dying moments, after it's too late. And why do we park the bus?

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

Arsenal win, City drop points, pretty good birthday if I'm being honest!

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

@thearsfamily97 The reason why they go so into depth into us is because they want engagement, same for when they go into United and Liverpool. The reason they won't talk about Chelsea's red cards or City's shaky performances as much is because the reality is very few cares about those clubs.

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

@ArsenalRadar Sorry, but that take is utter rubbish. Having a squad with good depth is important, and as much as I love Eze, he's not starting over an in form Ødegaard. Tbf injuries have hindered him to get back into proper form, but never forget the 23/24 Ødegaard without all of the injuries.

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

Whatever the weather.

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

These are the games where we look weak without Ødegaard and Havertz.
These are the games where we need to afford a little rotation to keep the flame going.
These are the nights that angers the Arsenal fans, and gives us terrible sights from past seasons.
Please Arteta. Please.

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

@DeanJamesAFC MENTAL! WEMBLEY HERE WE COME!

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

@Arsenalnewschan An ex Manchester united player with an ex Liverpool player talking about how the teams have problems, weird thing is, they talk about a team they've never played for?? Talk about how shit your own teams are and rather complain IF we're no longer in 1st!

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

Though I don't enjoy having to rely on other teams to get us in a better position, Everton DID help us today and gave Arsenal that 7 point lead instead of 4. It's difficult to get through teams that lay low, but I have a feeling Arteta will have an answer for it soon! #COYG

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

Chance to go 9 up, it was wasted of course, it was just that kind of day where the ball refused to go into the net. We have a pretty good attack, but other teams have figured out ways of stopping us progressing and that is a huge problem. Arteta needs to find a solution here.

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

Not our best performance, we definitely have to improve our game. But overall the defensive work was solid and Gyokeres got his goal ao I'm happy

[That Average Fan @ThatAverageFan5]

@Rory_Talks_Ball You've got to stop with these 😭 I feel like you're jinxing us hard
