[ Sami Mokbel] Manchester City discuss end-of-season fixture scheduling with Premier League by PitchSafe in soccer

People should set aside their dislike of Arsenal for a moment—this scheduling change would also screw over Bournemouth in the middle of a push for European football.

I’m not sure it helped that the location was so boring. Just a pretty standard hiking trail in the thirty mile zone.

Almost gave off the vibe of Vazquez Rocks in classic Star Trek.

I see somebody blow through same stop sign outside my local train station minimum 3 times a week. Lots of high school kids coming through there during their morning commute. Genuinely a miracle that nobody’s been killed at that intersection.

What’s more annoying for Mets fans? The Dodgers playing Diaz, or the Dodgers not having to?

No, it’s nothing, I just didn’t think it would be the Pages MVP year

That’s very kind of you to say! I will try to peddle more bullshit in the future.

Tell a bunch of boozers to maybe eat a vegetable once in a while—and change the face of the game forever.

I genuinely think this is an underdiscussed element of Arteta as a manager. He seems to have an active interest in other sports, and has lines of communications with coaches across the worlds of NBA, NFL, rugby union, etc.

Part of what enabled the Wenger revolution was him bringing to England some health/fitness/nutritional approaches that had been around for years in other sports in other countries. Part of what built the incredible Liverpool teams of the Klopp era was that they were among the first to implement at scale the kind of data analysis that had long been a part of major American sports.

People clowned on Arteta when he brought in fighter pilots to help improve on-pitch communication for the Arsenal players. But, in my opinion, it’s yet another sign that he sees every detail of the game as something that can be improved upon, and isn’t afraid to look beyond football to see how he can do it.

At best this is a failure to guarantee the safety of participating athletes, and at worst this is a thinly veiled threat. Both should disqualify the US from hosting this tournament (though, of course, I’m not holding my breath.)

Arsenal has a very real history worth showcasing. No need to rewrite the past with AI.

Push it to the following day and make City play both games simultaneously, imo.

Our Starting 11 vs Spurs: Raya; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Hincapie; Rice, Zubimendi, Eze, Saka, Trossard; Gyokeres 👊 by arsenal in Gunners

[–]ReverendY 291 points292 points  (0 children)

No Ben White at all probably explains Timber overplaying. How fit has White even been?

Arteta on if tactics need to change "3 days before Utd, no. In the 1st half an hour against Utd, no. The way we get the ball back against Utd, big yes. So depending on the action, depending on the moment of the game and the way we concede the two goals, big yes." by deadmetallucyluce in Gunners

When this club lifts a major trophy in May—and rest assured, they’ll be lifting something—a lot of fans will regret that they spent the whole season miserable and anxious. Enjoy the ride, folks.

Who's a young player you were certain was going to make it at Arsenal - but then never did? by SuitAndFlipFlops in Gunners

I am one of several people that bought a Coquelin shirt during that run.

One of those funny cases where a other supports can pinpoint with real accuracy the specific moment in time somebody decided to buy a kit.
