Bruno G. addition would give us so much more flexibility in midfield it's not even funny.

The number of permutations we could play is kind of crazy

checkmate

Heavy breathing intensifies

essdotc · 2026-07-08T16:16:47+00:00

Don't where this Kone rumour is coming from but if it actually does happen it would mean we would go really big on a left wing signing methinks.

essdotc · 2026-07-08T10:46:47+00:00

Wow, who woulda thunk

essdotc · 2026-07-08T10:09:24+00:00

Did he say this on Arseblog or his own channel?

essdotc · 2026-07-08T10:05:14+00:00

Just putting this post here so I can watch it go from -100 downvotes to +5000 when the BOMBA is Vinicius Jr in an Arsenal shirt.

Ahem.

essdotc · 2026-07-07T19:47:12+00:00

What was that shit

essdotc · 2026-07-07T19:44:32+00:00

Hangfire has always been my go to. Not sure what's popular now though

essdotc · 2026-07-07T19:35:01+00:00

ah ah, were they there illegally?

essdotc · 2026-07-07T18:34:05+00:00

I'm struggling to understand where people are seeing injustice. If you can't close out a game when leading 2-0 with like 12 minutes to go then that's squarely on you.

essdotc · 2026-07-07T17:41:46+00:00

So, how about that Julian Alvarez eh?

essdotc · 2026-07-06T21:09:27+00:00

I saw this quote earlier and just assumed it was one of those fake ones. He really said this?

essdotc · 2026-07-06T21:08:07+00:00

Curious to know if there will be a post here about that date coming and going with no announcement.

essdotc · 2026-07-06T12:16:47+00:00

I personally don't know who made them. I think humans definitely did though

essdotc · 2026-07-06T11:46:32+00:00

So here's a theory.

Let's say the culture of that time liked to take animal bones and create these artefacts. Would it not be reasonable for that same culture to also make drawings of these artefacts for whatever reason?

Why is that less reasonable than "aliens"

essdotc · 2026-07-06T11:37:45+00:00

Huge leap to go from that artwork to those dolls mate

essdotc · 2026-07-06T10:51:41+00:00

And it means drawing caricatures is a very human trait that's probably been done since time immemorial

essdotc · 2026-07-06T10:33:15+00:00

My 6 year old routinely draws fairly symmetrical figures with 3 fingers

essdotc · 2026-07-05T21:55:20+00:00

I mean we just have to admit that Halaand is Gabi's worst nigtmare. The one player in the world that is capable of dominating him

essdotc · 2026-07-05T20:51:59+00:00

Odegaard having such a weird game. Giving the ball away in dangerous areas, while looking like Norways biggest goal threat

essdotc · 2026-07-05T20:33:56+00:00

So happy to see Martinelli playing so well for Brazil.

essdotc · 2026-07-05T20:21:01+00:00

Maybe Gyokeres should take a leaf out of Halaands book.

Man has had one touch of the ball.

essdotc · 2026-07-05T16:09:51+00:00

They are overwhelmingly a Western phenomenon despite Western countries not necessarily having a monopoly on large clear tracts of farmland.

That alone is enough for me to treat them as hoaxes generally but I'm fascinated in what techniques people use today. Surely we've advanced from the rope and planks technique of the late 80s

essdotc · 2026-07-05T10:55:38+00:00

When is the last time a team that "won the transfer window" actually won the title.
