I’ve seen many footballers come & go in my >30 years of supporting #Arsenal, and Martinelli’s sale is among the saddest I’ve experienced. He loved the club & fans, gave 100%, delivered important moments, and was a team player throughout. He will be much missed. Thanks for everything, Gabi. ❤️💔😢

Needs to be sung on Sunday. Loudly.

Well said. I’m so gutted by this. He loved the club and fans and gave us some brilliant moments. Hard to take.

Devastated by his sale, especially as I think he’d have benefited from playing with Bruno. Plus we’ve left ourselves short at LW. Poor from the club IMO. I wish Gabi well.

Gutted about this transfer 😢. Love the player, love the person, and he loves the club. I wanted to see how he’d get on with Bruno in midfield. Not to be, sadly. Thanks for everything and good luck, Gabi. 🙏

If we end up basically swapping Marti for Rashford on loan I will be wheeling my way up to The Emirates to take it up with them. 🦽

Brilliant letter from Stuart Thompson to Jeremy Clarkson about his comments that benefit claimants should write weekly thank you letters to tax payers detailing how they spend their benefits each week.

Enjoyed your takedown of that obsequious guttersnipe Infantino. You got a lot of stuff off my chest 👌

Best night of his life, apparently. Delighted to have been able to do that for him. Thank-you Arsenal 🙏

Nice to meet you @amylawrence.bsky.social. My quiet confidence turned out to be well-placed! 🥳 Look forward to reading more of your well-crafted writing about the club that I (and I’m pleased to say also my son) love. Let’s hope the team can do it for themselves and our progeny! COYG! #Arsenal

@arseblog.com A way of looking at this season is that Arty & co have done well to have us challenging despite all this. Credit due.

Them calling it a “film” is a stretch. “Soulless corporate advert” would be more accurate.

Mark Adams @mark-adams.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

There is a lot of tension around #Arsenal at the moment. Personally, I am choosing to be positive about this team and its chances. That’s my mindset now, and I’m hoping my son and I can take that mentality across tonight and into the Bournemouth & Sporting home games. COME ON ARSENAL 🔴⚪️

Mark Adams @mark-adams.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

My son, to me, after discussing where #Arsenal are at the moment, and the febrile atmosphere around the club: “Yeah, I haven’t lost faith in this team; it is still one of the world’s best.” He’s getting frustrated at times with what he sees as Arty’s lack of courage, but I love his attitude 👌. 🔴⚪️

Mark Adams @mark-adams.bsky.social · 30/03/2026

I think there needs to be a recognised psychological condition called Arsenal Outrage Disorder (AOD), referring to the propensity for a person to become immediately and disproportionately incensed by anything that #Arsenal do or don't do. I also think there is a strong epidemic of this at present.

Insipid second half performance, one that bothers me way more than losing the trophy. We’d better use this as a wake-up call.

Hey, I am not saying I have found the *BEST* commentary for yesterday, but I think I have (Argentina). 😂 Covers both Arsenal goals, Gyökeres and Max Dowman. I promise you won't be disappointed. 🔴⚪🔊

Absurd. Unethical, corrupt, brazen, political (isn’t FIFA meant to be anti any form of political expression?), and just nauseating. Not to mention pathetic.

We've come a long way from Mustafi and Luiz as a CB pairing... [shudder]. Gabriel and Saliba are the real deal (Mosquera looking great too), and we're lucky to have them.

Re the #Arsenal performance and result yesterday: The thing I keep coming back to is that Arteta’s behaviour at halftime, and in the second half, showed that he clearly acknowledged the mistake, whatever he said in the press conference afterwards. That gives me hope.

Had a wonderfully restorative weekend with my wife & dog, going to the beach & a woodland for walks (well, rolls for me 🦽). Feeling recharged & in a very +ve headspace, with renewed vitality. More challenges to deal with, but I’m ready. Bring it on. Time for another journey of reinvention.
