This struggleball is just terrible, I hate it. The deep-rooted conservatism in Arteta is sending me west.

I still think Arsenal need to beat City at their place just to convince us and themselves we have this in our locker.

I still think it’s so funny that Max Martin wrote ‘Since U Been Gone’ because he thought Yeah Yeah Yeah’s ‘Maps’ was almost a really good song.

Said it a few times but Arteta is Arsenal’s Gareth Southgate. Inarguably took the club to a higher level but it also looks very obvious he can’t take them over the line.

It must be by design.

If we fall into second because of a loss to City at the Etihad I think it would inflict trauma we will simply never recover from as Arsenal fans

Falling into second when we lose to City at the Etihad is going to inflict trauma we will simply never recover from as Arsenal fans

Is this the Super Bowl equivalent of when Germany beat Brazil 7-1?

Why do you think we have been so unconvincing against the ‘bigger’ teams this season?

It’s all irreverent because the people he needs to believe it, will believe it.
