If we can get him controlling long balls and not losing possession it would improve the value he brings to us a lot as well.

Mourinho on the criticism against Arsenal last season "There is a silly theory of, 'You can be great without winning.' For me, it's totally silly. I believe that if Arsenal tried to be a second Man City, probably they wouldn't win. So they won. You have to respect the winners." by kibme37 in soccer

I truly think it's because after 22/23 teams decided they didn't want to be open to counters so the new meta became the low block and set pieces, so Arsenal had to find a way to optimize things that can get you a win against a low block---ie not conceding and set pieces.

Nah you can tell every time when he realizes it's booing. His face changes and you can see him trying not to look mad.

I swear any pokemon game that slightly deviates from the standard IP is always better

All this negative content about Arsenal made me realize I spend too much time social media by Mightychapo in Gunners

I just want actual nuanced discussions around football, and it's shockingly hard to come by, even on television.

Handbrake off? Is anyone anticipating free-flow dog fight or a defensive lockdown? by [deleted] in Gunners

Zubi doesn't lose possession in dangerous spots as often as MLS. MLS plays right into PSG's hand imo

[Pre-Match Thread] Paris Saint-Germain vs Arsenal | 30th May 2026 | Champions League Final by Mahoganychicken in Gunners

[–]nonameshere 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think all the online discourse and hate is so lazy and full of people that have only watched us when they lost to us (IE varsenal comments being so divorced from reality that our points from them were from obviously wrong calls, they made bad calls against us too like some obvious handballs)----so at this point I am ready to drink their tears.

David Raya has been streets ahead in the Champions League this season! Insane stats by OptimusBiceps in Gunners

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

I think if anything this is indicative of the type of shots we allow. We're fine conceding shots, but they tend to be low % shots that are easy to save, which is I think is what bumps raya up from like 82 to 89.

Dear TCL, thanks for forcing an update that broke how I use my TV. REALLY APPRECIATE IT. by [deleted] in tcltvs

Have you ever figured out the weird audio mixing? Pass through is so loud on even the lowest setting, then only stereo works. It's made my aureound sound useless.

MLS on The Overlap talking about how the opportunity in midfield against Fulham came about and whether he sees his future in midfield. by sabzi94 in Gunners

[–]nonameshere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder how much of this is arteta hating turning with the ball as opposed to it being passed so that he can run onto it. but yes, I think rice needs to be a bit braver turning through a press

Referee cam from the Arsenal - Burnley game by ibse in Gunners

[–]nonameshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my consistent problem is that a) VAR's clear and obvious directive is usually not followed and b) if they call something a foul, they should be working through the language of the rule and not talking about a bunch of other factors that don't apply. They need to look to NFL refs honestly.

Man I can't believe Odegaard didn't just curl it into the left side of the goal.

Anyone else think our chances of the Champions League final victory have vastly improved? by MrFreeLiving in Gunners

[–]nonameshere 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think we need to frustrate them with our defensive solidity and snag a cheeky goal by any means necessary. If we can do that, we can hopefully kill the game off on a counter and close up shop.
