There’s your team talk Eddie What a fuckin twat Arteta is. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt but he’s a fuckin idiot

I hope he remembers that we're top six when we leapfrog the cunts on Sunday.

What an arrogant, ignorant prick. Deluded Mikel Arteta dismisses Newcastle United with bitter 'top six' claim Arsenal boss Arteta overlooked three huge results ahead of United's Emirates clash next Sunday https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/deluded-mikel-arteta-dismisses-newcastle-31620242 Mikel Arteta claims that his Arsenal side haven't lost a single game against any of the top six teams in an astonishing dismissal of Newcastle United. The Gunners boss spoke emotionally after watching his team fight back from 2-0 down at Anfield to draw 2-2 with champions Liverpool. The point means Arsenal are now two points clear of Newcastle in second spot ahead of the game between the two sides on Sunday. Arteta wasn't happy with his side's performance, playing down the comeback as he admitted to being 'really really upset' with the way they started the game. And he felt that the fact the players managed to fight back to hold Liverpool - who have been streets ahead of the rest of the Premier League this season in terms of consistency - meant that it was actually 'worse'. However, in an astonishing dismissal of Newcastle, who are just two points behind his team in third position and who finished fourth two seasons ago, he claimed that Arsenal haven't lost against a top six side in two years. This is despite the Magpies having a strong record against Arteta under Eddie Howe. In May 2022, the Magpies produced a stunning 2-0 win at St James' Park to end Arsenal's title hopes. Fast forward to last season, and United again beat the Gunners thanks to Anthony Gordon's goal in front of the Gallowgate that prompted another Arteta meltdown and an FA charge after the ball was adjudged to have not gone out of play in the build-up. And then this season, Newcastle completed another 1-0 victory after Alexander Isak's thumping header sealed a November victory. Even discounting the Carabao Cup semi-finals, where United triumphed 4-0 on aggregate, that is still three Premier League defeats for Arteta in three years. Whether the Spaniard is bitter and doesn't count Newcastle as one of the 'top six' or has just forgotten those defeats, it is a bizarre statement to make. When asked after the game yesterday if their second-half comeback was a message to Liverpool for next season, Arteta said: “No, I think the message is to ourselves. I think it has to be about us, the things that we can control. We can never control what they are able to do or what they can do. That’s it. They won it, I think they fully deserved to win it. “They have been so consistent and that’s it. We are going to have to be better, smarter, be with the right ability. For sure, don’t play six times in the season with 10 men – because if that happens, we won’t win it next season, for sure. And we need to learn, a lot of learning. “When I look back at the two times (Arsenal played Liverpool this season), the game at home we probably should have won it and today, we shouldn’t have lost it. It could have been three or four, to be fair. “At the highest level, we can compete against any team and we have shown that now for the last two or three seasons. Against the top six, I think we haven’t lost any single game – so that tells you as a team we are very, very consistent and can compete with anybody. “But actually to win it, and win, win, win, we are going to need something else, apart from our ability as well, certain demands and make sure we don’t talk about reaction – because I hate that word.”

We need to see the prompt for this. To determine whether it was you or the phone that fucked this up, but also just to see what it's like when a grown man asks his phone to draw him his favourite train.

3 aubergines for dinner then? 🍆🍆🍆

30 second stop off then?

Twice Screwed.

There's certainly some psychopathic leanings in your bloodline. 🙂

The lake district.

And yet there you are ... tramping it out in style on your patio couch.

I reckon it's a trucker's paradise up there.

You're basically Boris Johnson with a marginally better grasp of technology.

Fuck me ewerk, don't feed the monster.

Well the electorate are in charge, and they made a clear point on 1st May of their feelings. The concern I have is Starmer is acting with appeasement in mind.

OBVIOUSLY we need to the xG for the five previous games in order to make a comparison. This is pretty simple stuff, I shouldn't have to be telling you how to do your job.

So this phone has inbuilt generative AI where you can sketch something and it will create a fully fleshed out image for you. As you all know, I like trains. Here's what the thick fucker made of my sketch of a high speed train.

I AWAIT YOUR ANALYSIS!

I've not kept up on the politics for weeks as tbh it's too fucking depressing and I've got too much stuff on. Anyway a very close pal messages me yesterday to tell me Starmer was going to be announcing we are 'taking back control' followed by 'He might as well come clean and tell people its Farage running the country' He's convinced Farage is in charge.

I was going to say the same, but decided not to I mean, they assaulted him with icing sugar WTF

So which lay-by do you frequent, MF?

Grim scenes in the garden today The rooks / crows who are nesting in one tree, paid a visit to the pigeons who are nesting 2 trees along. Lots of noise, feathers falling down and then Mrs pigeon came flying out. 20 seconds later the rook came out with one of the pigeons eggs in its beak. What absolute cunts. I half tempted to turn the hosepipe on them. This is not the garden for ruffians of any sort.

no, and you wouldn't want anyone else taking pens. he's ice cold in those situations. but his all round game has definitely dropped off in the past 4-6 weeks though. it's just not about his goal scoring. he doesn't seem to be moving around the pitch as freely as he was in the run up to the cup final, which to me suggests fatigue or he's carrying a niggle. we also have history of continuing to start players when they're managing injuries, so it wouldn't surprise me. i have faith in the medical department since bunce has come in. we have had way fewer injury problems this season but i wonder if they have weighed up how important isak is to the team against he lack of viable options on the bench and decided to defer his rest or op till the summer.

Valid point and reminds me of a comment made during the cup final when I was in the same box as a few Liverpool fans. One of them made a comment that in the 2nd half, Isak had a one on one with Andy Robertson and was out-sprinted. They consider Robertson to not be quick so in turn commented that Isak has no pace. That's not the Isak we know so wouldn't at all be surprised to hear that he's off for an op as soon as the season is over - no international football so nothing to 'manage' in the interim.

Did you see the state of him coming off when he was subbed at Wembley? He could barely walk. He did the full 90mins on Sunday . Am certain a knock has been managed for months and he’ll get an op in the summer. If we’d already got CL he’d have had it by now…
