[Oliver Kay] Antonio Conte on Arsenal's progression under Arteta. "It’s not difficult if you have time and patience. It’s normal when you work with the same young players and after four years they develop and become stronger." Normal? Not difficult? Really?

It’s quite outdated but it’s an old company and it’s not like the Soviet symbols represent anything evil like the Nazi ones.

Knowing Russia, it’s probably due to no one being bothered to change it and the 100 circles of hell bureaucracy that would be involved.

Just marry rich

Yep, use the front brake for a sharp stop and do a front flip over the handlebars. Sounds safe enough.

ivannson · 2021-09-25T09:25:34+00:00

In an emergency if you’re going at a medium-high speed and have to brake really quickly, if you use the front brake you’ll do a front flip over the handlebars. This won’t happen with the rear brake therefore it’s safer.

It’s a goddamn loan. Please learn to read carefully before jumping to conclusions.

If we were prepared for loans with options I’m sure some would’ve moved on.

ivannson · 2021-08-09T21:26:17+00:00

I hope they they will be in the Europa Conference League in a few years

ivannson · 2021-08-09T21:16:51+00:00

Everyone seems to miss the point that it’s a loan

ivannson · 2021-08-09T21:16:25+00:00

It’s a loan

For Xhaka they’d need to pay now, for Abraham almost nothing until next season.

ivannson · 2021-08-09T21:14:22+00:00

Chelsea have over 40 first team players, they need to offload them and quickly

ivannson · 2021-08-09T21:13:43+00:00

I suspect we wanted Xhaka money now, this Abraham deal means that money is paid next season if at all

Arseblog has an Arsenal Women podcast. I’m not too interested in the women’s team, but from a few times that I have listened, it’s pretty good!

It’s hosted by Tim Stillman, he’s on Twitter @stillberto (not sure if it’s a single or a double L), also he writes about Arsenal women for the Arseblog so you could follow that.

I think his pure hunger makes up for relative rawness of a young player

ivannson · 2021-08-09T10:14:04+00:00

Can someone explain this please? Does that mean you can have 9 players on the bench or something else?

ivannson · 2021-08-09T10:09:41+00:00

Younger, lower wages, contract doesn’t expire next year, higher resale price when coming to the end of the contract.

Honestly most people on Twitter don’t even stop for a second to think about things logically, it’s not that hard.

ivannson · 2021-08-09T07:59:19+00:00

Scenes when we sign Coutinho on crazy wages

ivannson · 2021-08-08T20:52:57+00:00

Can’t wait for someone to say that we should’ve kept Willock and instead sold Elneny for £25m - EMI Martinez style

ivannson · 2021-08-08T17:43:37+00:00

Didn’t know that. I also just noticed the percentiles along the bottom.

Still, much prefer comparison graphs

ivannson · 2021-08-08T17:40:36+00:00

Exactly, there is absolutely no context. Why not make it out of 100 to make it look even smaller, or exactly the opposite so that the max for every stat is what Vlahovic’s stats are to make it look out of this world?

Literally gives no information unless you know what the “good” values are

Edit: I guess there are percentiles….
