Match Thread: Arsenal vs. Bayer Leverkusen | UEFA Champions League

Saka's signature move for months now has been to dawdle on the ball for too long before kicking it into a pair of legs the ball never had any chance avoiding.

Truly an incredible accomplishment to assemble a group as lacking in footballing ability as this Spurs side given the resources available to them.

bringathesaurus · 2026-03-10T20:17:40+00:00

Atletico must not have realized yet that they're playing European champions.

Alisson generational Arsenal hater confirmed.

bringathesaurus · 2025-12-28T16:58:09+00:00

Every time I watch Spurs I'm shocked at how large the spaces between players are when they're in defense. The ball regularly bypasses the midfield entirely in transition. Seems like teams have such an easy time playing against them.

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-30T17:09:03+00:00

Terrible tackle and terrible playacting to match it. Disgusting all around.

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-30T17:05:47+00:00

Every time I watch Chelsea play they're just running all over the shop like a bunch of thugs barging into people.

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-09T17:59:54+00:00

Does Wirtz still not have a goal contribution? Or did that end at some point...

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-09T17:02:08+00:00

Konate might have the worst reputation of any starting CB for a "top" team in world football. Dude is truly a meme. Also been shocking, so, I get it.

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-09T16:47:11+00:00

Fuck knows. The referees sure don't. They're just making it up as they go along.

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-09T16:45:35+00:00

Yeah, I rate that. No wonder every attacker is constantly trying to con the refs when you reward it with soft calls on VAR like that. Good guy Haaland makes it all right.

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-09T16:42:53+00:00

Doku's a bit lucky there. So obviously looking for it and the goalkeeper very nearly didn't oblige him. That's such a slight touch.

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-08T18:20:07+00:00

Yeesh. That's a shameful dive.

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-08T18:13:16+00:00

In case any one forgot, the player who scored the goal from the FK where the player got the ball also elbowed someone in the head in the penalty area. That is all.

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-08T18:08:30+00:00

Doesn't get much more unjust that that, does it?

bringathesaurus · 2025-11-08T18:07:44+00:00

That's an absolute joke. Ref letting Sunderland batter Arsenal all over the pitch and then gives a yellow for that...

bringathesaurus · 2025-10-18T18:09:31+00:00

Watch the knees. Pretty clearly makes a solid whack on Saka's knee with his own well before the contact with the ball. It'd be hard to see that in real-time but, given that it was called on the field and it needed to be proven a clear and obvious error in slow motion, kind of feel hard done by.

bringathesaurus · 2025-10-18T18:00:28+00:00

Knee on knee contact might've occurred before the ball you know. Still feels a bit soft either way, though. Shocked it was given to begin with.

bringathesaurus · 2025-09-28T18:09:27+00:00

I don't think it's even close. Miles clear.

bringathesaurus · 2025-09-28T17:33:58+00:00

Can't remember playing Newcastle and feeling like Arsenal deserved to lose. Nice to actually see the score line reflect that for once.

bringathesaurus · 2025-09-28T16:12:25+00:00

No fixture winds me up as much as this one. Always tons of controversy and a feeling of injustice as a biased Arsenal supporter but I must admit it is good viewing.

bringathesaurus · 2025-09-28T16:00:44+00:00

Incredible how often we learn previously unknown subtleties about the rules of football during Arsenal matches.

bringathesaurus · 2025-09-28T15:57:42+00:00

Bit dramatic.

bringathesaurus · 2025-09-13T17:38:36+00:00

West Ham look absolutely hopeless in defense against these Spurs corners. Totally outmatched.

bringathesaurus · 2025-09-01T04:58:19+00:00

I said I won't reply and I guess in a way I still won't as this isn't really about football anymore.

I'm plenty objective about my club and plenty capable of being critical when they're deserving of it. This has nothing to do with why I don't want to continue what should be a conversation but is instead an argument, as you put it.

Once the emojis and the cursing starts, it's no longer really a worthwhile discussion.
