    Just commuting to work on the metro in Tokyo and noticed this lady’s socks in front of me. Resisting the urge to trip her, I waltzed past and told her to “mind the gap” in Japanese. In hindsight, she might have thought I was talking about the gap between the platform and the train… Which would explain the puzzled look on her face 😅

    Are r/gunners ready to accept that tomiyasu is world class yet, or shall I come back in another few weeks?

    Saliba Gabriel Diomande Rice Palhinha.

    That rotation next year - we are going to concede less than 15 goals all season.

      Honestly as a foreign fan I don’t get how live games can feel underwhelming. I go to Emirates once per season and it has been amazing experience every time. Even when we lost to Olympiakos in the EL 2020 I loved it.

      Meh, I used to be a season ticket holder but I don’t love live games.

      I honestly prefer just watching it at home. Just a personal preference, I’m not sure what you did or didn’t like.

    Had no idea Pope is 31. With the expected length of this injury, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them go big for Ramsdale in January.

    Assuming Tomi is out for tomorrow (I’d start him on the bench either way), here’s my team for Luton tomorrow. This aims to strike the balance between making sure we get three points in a potential banana skin away game but also trying to keep players fresh for the next three PL games which look incredibly tricky

    Raya

    White - Saliba - Kiwior - Zinchenko

    Odegaard - Rice - Havertz

    Saka - Jesus - Trossard

    Subs: Ramsdale, Cedric, Gabriel, Walters, Elneny, Jorginho, Martinelli, Nketiah, Nelson

    Every team so far has conceded on average 1 goal per game minimum.

    Except one.

    We are massive.

    How does it feel? Waking up and knowing we are one of the best teams in Europe :)

      Surreal tbh. What’s weird is other teams just look mid. You watch other games (PSG, Madrid) and they honestly look like Villa to me.

      Arteta really did raise the standards and I couldn’t be more grateful.

      I really used to pray for days like these.

    BBC article about Haaland tweet describing ‘wtf’ as ‘offensive slang’, what a weird description, offensive?

    Cash, Digne and Luiz one yellow from suspension and face City on Wednesday.

    Let’s hope for a violent game which lead to City dropping points and to soften up Villa on the weekend.

    This may be a hot take but here it is: Barclays and La Liga are the only non banter top leagues in the world. Every other top league is basically a comedy show or a farmers league

      England will only have two teams in the CL Ro16 so this is as false as it can get
