  1. No videos from Honorary Aussie Valtteri Bottas so far this year, so we’ll have to enjoy this one instead.
  2. Finally.
  3. Of course he said that. RvP, Nasri, Cesc, etc all said the same when they hit the two-year remaining mark. And all were gone within two years. If we don’t win serious silverware next year (and by serious I mean PL or CL, I could easily see him, and a few other key players, leaving. Careers are short, and world class players want to win things. The club and Arteta need to show out this summer window.
  4. CBS Sports Network is currently airing “Inside College Basketball” from three days ago, in case anyone missed it. Not like they have rights to any live sports programming that might be more interesting this afternoon.
  5. When it was announced Rodri would miss the season, I thought we have a real chance (disclaimer: I never wish injury on anyone). Then our injuries started piling up, and Saka’s ended what little was left of a title race by that point.
  6. After a bit of reflection, it is a credit to the players that were still 2nd and in the CL quarterfinals after all the injuries we’ve had and the nature of those injuries (key players, timing, etc). And stop wearing the 3rd kit. Back to black is the way.
  7. We have a sporting director. I like this move. Berta’s an experienced operator in the transfer market and has a great eye for talent. We’re entering a very critical period (this summer window, key players starting true final two years and need renewals, etc); better to have a guy at the helm with skins on the wall.

  8. 💯 There’s more goals in this.Meed more of them our way Credit to PSV, though, for actually playing football instead of a fucking low or mid block.
  9. MLS needed subbing; he was exceedingly lucky not to get a 2nd yellow.
  10. So this is what is like to score goals? I’d forgotten. Rather nice.
  11. Exactly. For example, 2022 had the following stretch of races: * Melbourne * Imola * Miami * Barcelona (You serious, Clark? Europe, US, then right back to Europe?) * Monaco * Baku * Montreal * Silverstone That’s a hell of a lot of private jets & cargo planes going back and forth across the globe.
  12. One of the many things we miss about Saka is his corner delivery; he can put the ball on a dime. That and a little Benny Blanco shithousery on the GK.
  13. Feel like I’ve seen this movie: We’ll have 70% possession, they’ll score on their 1st counter of the game, we’ll bang our head uselessly against their mid-block before they score 2H dagger. Hope I’m wrong. COYG.
  14. Sold this past summer for £25m with another 5m in add-ons, in part because his sale generated pure profit from a PSR standpoint since he was in a Hale End product (same with ESR). Getting £30m was good business, but the problem was we didn’t bring in any attacking players to replace those who departed.
  15. The king is dead (fuck city 115 times in their goatass). Long live the king. If Salah doesn’t win the Balon d’Or this year then something’s seriously wrong; he’s been otherworldly this season. You guys also will get to fully celebrate this one (without the pandemic lockdowns of 2020).
  16. Because of course.
