  1. Santi was special.
  2. Forest, currently owned by a dude who owns multiple clubs, are trying to get Palace kicked out of Europa because multi-club ownership rules. Totally unrelated: Forest would replace them in Europa. Pots, kettles, etc must be a difffrent color in Greece or something. https://www.thetimes.com/sport/football/article/crystal-palace-europa-league-nottingham-forest-john-textor-bhnd3bjtm
  3. That’s a nice £5m bit of transfer business if it gets done. Surprised he would want to be a backup when he clearly could start at a lot of clubs. And the assist, a beautiful chipped pass that sent him in on goal, came from Zubimendi. Massive. Some night call it an XL signing, in fact.
  4. Dude is surprised Whataburger fucked up his order? Where’s he been living the past 70 years?
  5. Cap and Zubimendi gonna convince Isak to force a transfer to The Arsenal, forming #SociedadNorth.
  6. I mean, the dude’s yacht his so big he has to launch a smaller boat from said yacht so he can enter Monaco harbor. I’d bet Lance’s F1 salary : Lawrence Stroll : : my kid’s $10 a week allowance: me.
  7. When done right, Fil-A can slam. Case in point: The hospital where I work has a CFA in the cafeteria that (/noracist) is staffed almost entirely by older African-American ladies. The cooks, the register, etc. They are the friendliest, know everyone by name, and know your usual order. And they by God have ruined me on every outside CFA: Every sammich (spicy or reg) is shatteringly crispy. Fries are made to order, cooked 2x as long as at a reg CFA, and are handed to you “burn your fingers” hot. Oh, and there’s no such thing as an 8-piece or 12-piece nug; you’ll always get minimum 10 or 14, respectively. Ask for two sauces? You get handed five. In other words, the anti Popeye’s experience. Unrelated: I have gained 15 pounds since it opened.
  8. “Check Out This Fucking Sammich” thread is this way>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Looks great, though.
  9. It’s an easy recommend as an entry-level grinder. They list for $150, and you can sometimes find them on sale for $130. The Encore was my first “good” grinder (used to have a cheap $20 one before that), and I immediately noticed the difference. Like in my first cup. If you’re looking to do pourovers, French press, etc (it can’t grind fine enough for espresso), you can’t go wrong with the Encore. Baratza has great customer support too. Even though I eventually got an Ode Gen2, I still have and use my Encore. The Esp takes settings 1-20 fine enough for espresso, and the leaves 21-40 for filter. Never used but it’s generally gotten sold reviews.
  10. Leftover pulled pork & taco meat, warmed up with chee till melted, hotdog, moar chee, with a cilantro garnish, all on a corn tortilla.
  11. With a hash brown inside FTW.
  12. Annually applying for tickets; annually getting told “lulz fuck off, pleb.” A Tradition Unlike Any Other.
  13. Bout time. The Pirate deserves to be in the Hall; he undeniably had an impact on the game. On the field and during press conferences.
  14. Taco Night never disappoints. Oh, and the HEB fresh corn tortillas, ever so lightly oiled and toasted in a hot skillet, are damn good.
  15. Who is #ArtetaOut, other than SnapFace or InstantChat idiots farming for clicks? There are areas where Arteta needs to improve. One of which is trusting the squad.
  16. Agree. I’m not a GR fan, but he kinda 💯 nailed it. Every. Word. Of. This. Especially V10s. How can we make it happen?
  17. Absolutely.
  18. Love this clip. This one and the Senna onboard are two I’ll always rewatch during Monaco week. The noise…. Cars today just don’t sound like that. And that was one heck of a lap from Norris.
  19. He’s a Gooner; low-key attended a match last Jan.
  20. So… does this mean Ange In?
  21. Yup. Havartz is our top scorer with nine, and he hasn’t played since January. That’s just, well, Not. Great. Bob. We drew five last season, nine fewer than this year (so far). Let’s say we had a forward/striker who could have found nine more goals, turning nine draws into wins. We’d be on 89 points heading into the matchday. Yeah I know “If ‘ifs’ and ‘but’s’ were candy and nuts and all that, but then again a lethal striker would go so long way make sure we’d have had a very merry season.
  22. €80m… Two players. Gabriel Jesus and Trossard. And that is it. Even adding in Havartz (who arrived as a MF) we’re still behind Wolves Borderline miracle that we came so close in ‘22-23 and ‘23-24 with this (lack of) spending. Chelsea @ £800m? Lulz. Maybe KSE needs to sell something back to themselves.
  23. Crazy thing is Timber can play CB in a pinch. I heard (IIRC James on a recent Arsecast) say he spoke to some Italian media friends who think Calafiori’s best position is likely CB. Immense talents; now if they can only stay healthy. IIRC Gabriel Jesus’ ETR is ~ Jan 26; like a winter window signing. Tomi… wish him well but not expecting anything. Trossard is damn good in our system, stays healthy, and can play all three forward positions. A damn bargain at only £20m. Someone in addition to Zinny (besides Reiss Nelson and Tavares) might have to be sold to fund upgrades, someone we’d rather not sell. Big decisions this summer.
  24. No international tournament (and that neither we nor Sporting are in the CWC) should make it easier to get business done early and, as you said, get new signings integrated. Oh, and that’s an awesome pic. First… it’s been too damn long since I’ve had Top Notch. Too. Damn. Long. Second…that your mom is a diehard Gunner and even got a Saliba kit. COYG.
