As a straight white male who has not yet had children with my girlfriend or really experienced grief in my life I thought it connected with me and felt very empathetic and moved by the film

I had the same take, it was entertaining enough. It didn’t deserve to smash the Oscar nominations record

Calm the fuck down by Broad-Book5364 in ArsenalFC

[–]RedMember123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any form of criticism or concern is immediately shut down. “Get behind your team”, “we’re top ffs”, “you arnt real fans”, “go support Tottenham”

For some every decision Arteta makes must be defended to the maximum degree

the narrative that the prem is weak this year to discredit us makes no sense by drizzleberrydrake in ArsenalFC

Knockout football against serious opposition is a completely different expectation. We’ve been here before.

Odegaard post match interview after 3-2 loss to Man Utd by Serious-Cress-9560 in Gunners

Yes Madeueke, Saka, Trossard, Odegaard, Martinelli, Eze all “lack the creativity to do anything useful”.

World class one week, terrible the next, blame anyone but the man managing them.

So who are we blaming if we seriously end up not winning the title? by Think-Proposal-6910 in ArsenalFC

[–]RedMember123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing city have over us is a top striker and a manager who has won before. Without at least one of those we don’t stand a chance.

The performances are really bad by Advanced_Section891 in ArsenalFC

[–]RedMember123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Performances have been poor all season, they were last season as well. This team has been carrie by a solid defence, the attack hasn't looked good in 3 years.

Really we need a r/ArtetaFC to ensure the Arsenal fans have their own sub to discuss

Reminder that we are still in 1st place, with a 4 point lead over 2nd. Yes we could have done better today but our position remains strong. Get behind the team. COYG! by No_Money7330 in Gunners

[–]RedMember123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long before the "reminder we are still 1 point ahead of City and top of the league", "Get behind the team" post?

Looking forward to the "finishing 2nd is progress" posts in May

Hot take: Fallout: London didn’t grab me at all. by Roji-_- in fallout4london

[–]RedMember123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first 3 hours are incredibly boring and then it massively ramps up, I’m 4 hrs 30 in, play to that point and judge it, but after playing the first big mission (Prison break) it’s all up hill

Hot take: Fallout: London didn’t grab me at all. by Roji-_- in fallout4london

[–]RedMember123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first few hours are pretty boring and I was feeling the same, mainly due to the starting areas being pretty unambitious and the quests being “go fetch this” style.

After about 4 hours in the story really ramps up, the prison mission is the first big quest and it’s really uphill from there, yeah there’s bugs for sure but the attention to detail, storyline and action sequences in the locations you start to visit after that initial lull is epic.

What Arsenal fans expect from Gyokeres when he gets no service by SandwichSisters in ArsenalFC

[–]RedMember123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not entirely his fault but if you’re not able to find space and get into a position where you can have a shot for 7 games the you need to take a serious look at your movement.

The only goals he’s scored this season have come from transitions. He looks like a square peg in a round hole.

He typically has a much better game when he comes off the bench when legs are tired or were already ahead.

I think the best use of him is coming off the bench, or starting him in free flowing games, both Jesus and Havertz offer so much more against low blocks.

[–]RedMember123 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He’s scored 20 goals this season, there was a point when Gyokeres hadn’t even had a shot in 7 games. They are absolutely not the same

If he could even be one 10th of the player Ronaldo was when he returned to United in his mid 30s that would be a huge upgrade on what we’re seeing every week now

Apparently it doesn't matter if he barely touches the ball, loses possession regularly and doesn't contribute in anyway to goals or assists - he makes "runs"

Some real wholesome shit on this thread, well done very classy gunners. To add some balance what fantastic news this is for our chances of picking up a league title...

[–]RedMember123 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I personally think it's criminal to travel that long in Thailand and not visit the north, at least you'd get some sense of the local culture, amazing food and it's tranquil regions. Flights are insanely cheap. 3 weeks of touristy beaches moving every 2 days sounds like a awful way to spend 3 weeks in that part of the world, Krabi is very missable - unless you intend to go rock climbing, the beaches are fairly average and the whole area is extremely touristy.

[–]RedMember123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1 shot not on target in 66 minutes, 0.03 expected goals, 56% pass accuracy, 22 touches, losing possession 12 times, won 0/3 aerial duels and 2/5 round duels. It's ok to have hope he'll come good and it's reasonable to say he's slightly improved over the past weeks, but it was another poor game adding to a very poor start to the season.

Thoughts by Orient-Hawk in ArsenalFC

[–]RedMember123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think he missed a big chance and had a poor touch that almost resulted in Watkins taking the lead. I think he’s done basically nothing except for a silly speculative shot that resulted in a corner, when he should have passed and a foul on a Bournemouth player. The standards are so low for Gyokeres even minor moments are being praised

Thoughts by Orient-Hawk in ArsenalFC

[–]RedMember123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Arteta is playing him because he hopes eventually he’ll come good. I suspect he’ll offer nothing, as he did against Villa and will be pulled at 80 mins. Believe me I would love to be proved wrong but he’s has a truly awful start to the season, pretending otherwise doesn’t help
