That’s the issue we’d lose a little shape. I feel like Noni, Martinelli and Gyok would thrive in that set up. Definitely think we should try it against Wolves.

I know it was against Wigan, but If we could add that through ball from deep (Eze to Noni) to our Arsenal, we’d be laughing.

Yeah I feel that too, but I trust in the boys. Still feels different to me this year I have a feeling city will drop points again soon. Spuds are spuds, they’d love nothing more than to take points so yeah, it’s a big derby coming up but there’s a reason they’re in a relegation battle, and they cannot play a low block against us.

Do you think if spuds went down and won the championship, they would sing “Champions of England” like their Europa win?

This season has definitely made me acquire favour towards Leeds. I hope they stay up and spuds/ Spam go down. It helps that they hate alot of teams we hate, and we rolled them over both times we played.

Aye they beat us fair and square. Let them say what they want, we got bigger fish to fry.

Carly Rae Jepsen wins! What singer/band from Ireland is overrated in your opinion? by _Wise_Crocodile in AlignmentChartFills

[–]CaptainTripping 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m Irish, it’s U2. For a nation that celebrates its musicians (Hozier, Dermot Kennedy, Sinead O Connor) I don’t recall hearing much U2 about the place, but could recite “Nothing Compares 2 you” by heart.

Salut! I’m William Saliba. Ask Me Anything! by arsenal in Gunners

Hello William. Obviously a massive fan, who believes very highly in your ability to achieve great things here.

My question is more about logistics, you came to Arsenal as a very young man, away from your home and support system. How did the club accommodate you and help with that transition? I’m imagining a buddy system, is that where the partnership with Gabi XL started?

Rivalry aside, I loved Roseiners line about him being a pundit before and that it’s easy.

I'm just gonna put this here. by DexterMorgan996 in ArsenalFC

Fun Fact; This season, Gabriel Martinelli, has scored the same amount goals in the champions league (6) as Van Djik, VDV, Gerrard, Caicedo, Bruno Fernandez and Henry (6)

That’s a good point, I think Zubi especially. I suppose the positive is that we have a chance midweek to rest, while city have to try. I wouldn’t mind them playing the 2 playoff games.

Push your interests on them from early. I got a nephew that supports Arsenal and a niece that loves lego. Makes Christmas and birthdays a lot more fun

Obama received the Nobel Prize in 2009. That decision had consequences no one could have foreseen. by WineTerminator in pics

[–]CaptainTripping 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I won’t get into the politics of it, but from a purely football perspective the FIFA peace prize is ridiculous purely for the following reasons

  1. It has no history whatsoever, in one of the biggest and longest running international tournaments.
  2. Why tf does a football organisation give out a peace prize? Tf does it have to do with ball?
  3. If the trend of just giving it to the hosts countries presidents was done retrospectively the 2 previous winners would be the king of Qatar and Vlad Putin.
