J S @drunkard.bsky.social · 11hWhich particular position do you feel lacking? I think we all agreed LW looked weak before the season started, but now I feel a centre-forward wouldn't have gone amiss. 100
J S @drunkard.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Is there precedent in the other Big Five leagues for titles to be stripped and given to second place teams? 000
J S @drunkard.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I've heard a certain bald Dutchman is available. No, not Erik Ten Hag 000
J S @drunkard.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Yeah, far be it from me to sympathise with United but that is a ridiculous decision. Enzo clearly attempted to touch the ball. That's much more involvement than has been penalised before. 100
J S @drunkard.bsky.social · 12/09/2026If you want to "stamp out" grappling, you can't do it when the attacker is pulling his marker just as much as the marker is. That would just lead to half a dozen penalties every game, except it won't because you'll see scarcely any similar incidents. 020
Reposted by J SDaniel Storey @danielstorey85.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Everybody might be obsessed with transfers and new faces, but Arsenal have three old-new attackers who barely peaked last season and almost never start together. That should terrify everybody else.

J S @drunkard.bsky.social · 31/05/2026There were a few good moments: - Marquinhos hugging Gabriel - Rice smiling - PSG player hitting Havertz with a baguette and the ref giving PSG a free kick for that, with Qatari dinar notes hanging out of his pockets 000
Reposted by J SJames Benge @jamesbenge.bsky.social · 30/05/2026To the last Arsenal were themselves. And they were brilliant. The goal here is not to enrapture neutrals but to win football matches.

Reposted by J SAdrian Clarke @adrianjclarke.bsky.social · 30/05/2026This Arsenal side has come a long, long way. Yet in our current guise we still aren’t ready to go toe to toe with PSG, so the game plan was sound. Never felt PSG would score in open play. Defended superbly. Fine margins just didn’t go Arsenal’s way. Stronger next year 💪🏼 2234833

We’ll be back for the Champions League. 🏆 1751824
J S @drunkard.bsky.social · 30/05/2026Seconded. Philippe and the other fantastic writers at Josimar have been a small ray of hope in a sport spiralling deeper into filth. As far as I'm concerned there is no more football between now and August. 030
Reposted by J SPete (beautifulgroan) @beautifulgroan.bsky.social · 30/05/2026We have the best defence in Europe by a country mile. It should scare the living daylights out of everyone else that we might improve at the other end this summer. Think we're unbearable NOW?? 072
Reposted by J SPete (beautifulgroan) @beautifulgroan.bsky.social · 30/05/2026Defending is part of football. Spurs scored plenty against Atletico and still got embarrassed because they couldn't.

Reposted by J SPete (beautifulgroan) @beautifulgroan.bsky.social · 30/05/2026That's a penalty most of the time.

Rice being booked for talking to the ref as captain is the cherry. 182
