😂 here we go. Raya, PotM, takes the award from Booo-runo G But he’s drinking electrolytes (salty tears) in his Arsenal labelled water bottle. Are they Tottenham, Team 115 Charges, or Sunderland? They’re not Xhaka’s. He was enjoying himself catching up with all the Arsenal boys post-match.

Ok. I need to clean bird feeders, the kitchen, there’s laundry, and … See you tomorrow night as we break it down on season 3, E156.

It’s a shame Fofana and Ballard aren’t good enough for Arsenal. Look how good they both were. Ballard at both ends.

Raya is the PotM for me. That save set us up for the win.

Squeezed in after a very good try by Roefs. 0-2 and the three points will matter, but I think the extra 1 goal was needed.

PK. YYR for Reinildo as well. I think Bukayo held the ball before shooting so he would get that PK.

What’s annoying g to me is that a referee could let big fouls go across the first 60’ and not give cards but Ricky-tack fouls in ET are getting cards.

Looootsa Xhaka and Konsa extras. Let’s watch that

Big Gabby just died on the pitch. Well, let’s not get hysterical, Eric. But truly, he was pushed and I’d have thought the noise he made is what happens if I fell out of a tree.

We’re playing the Black Cats, but there’s only one cat on the field… David Raya. 🐈‍⬛

YC for Xhaka gets me points. I called it. Mukiele nearly pulls off the same shot as Havertz. Same result. No goal.

Aaaaand it had to be Boooooo-ruuuuunooooo!!! 0-1 Gunners Matty special in off the bottom of the crossbar. The post helps at both ends within moments.

Brilliant save by Raya. I thought he’d gone early, but was clearly on the line when the ball is kicked. With a strong wrist he helps it off the post and clear.

Stateside Gooners @statesidegooners.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
Brought that on himself, Konsa did. We’d all want the PK if Gabby went down like that.

Boooo-runo G one at HT for MLS. Is there a chance he won’t hear the Stadium of Light whenever he’s on the ball?

Stateside Gooners @statesidegooners.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
There’s the Tzolis diagonal, Saka heads back across to Kai, but our former captain makes a last second athletic clearance. (Nice scorpion 🦂 Xhaka) 1H over.

Stateside Gooners @statesidegooners.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
Here we go… Benjamin has a knock and to Matt’s dismay, I’m sure, we may see Timber without a proper warmup, enter the game.

Stateside Gooners @statesidegooners.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
Mikel gets a yellow card. Signals to someone towards the tunnel… “check that off your list” He was IN the Black Cats technical area? Maybe they we trying to figure out who was supposed to bring the halftime oranges.

Ballard is a big man.

Possible penalty from the corner kick, Brobbey’s bully job on Riccy deemed fair. Just about the right call.

Stateside Gooners @statesidegooners.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
Havertz comes back less than a minute later with a sideways overhead kick on target.

Stateside Gooners @statesidegooners.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
Kai finishes (blazed over) a pretty nice move. I expected Tzolis to hit that trademark diagonal into the danger area.

Dan Ballard, nearly, again! 😒😳😮‍💨

I love when Ben White kicks the ball off opponents… Never mind…. Saka missed another from abour4 yards. Where’s the right foot? … Ben off Brobbey’s face to get the throw.

Glad to see the pace of the game is still quick. We’ve seen this most of the season so far.

Stateside Gooners @statesidegooners.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
Mikel is at it again. No rest for the weary. Raya White, Konsa, Gabby, Riccy Rice, MLS Saka, Ødegaard, Tzolis Gyökeres (just kidding, it’s Kai) Not sure what we’ll see. We did say ‘game state’ could change a lot of who the finishers are, and when they’re introduced. Let’s get up 0-2 by HT. #COYG

If you haven’t scored a goal yet, points should not be allowed. Is that a thing? Can it be? Well done Toffees, though Johnson should e been more clinical.

0-1 to The Arsenal We recorded Tuesday night, hope you don’t mind. Saka scores his second in two games, Riccy makes his second in two. Nice In control, zero shots on target, lots of opportunities for finishers to get minutes, still no Gyökeres. Curious. 6 points from 6 on offer. Up next is Chelsea.

by @amylawrence.bsky.social We like the player & he built a home and family in our lives. I agree with the move, not going further with him than we with someone else. LW has been a weak spot and the player brought in to give him rest was better and became the starter (Trossard). Good fortune Gabi

Gabriel Martinelli being set to leave Arsenal brings sadness, regret and puzzlement
Little Gabi, as he was known, played with such a big heart and departs knowing that he gave his all during his seven years at the Emirates

On May 14, 2024 a stadium full of Tottenham fans wanted their own team beaten so we couldn't win the league. Since then: two 17th place finishes, three head coaches in one season, no derby win, and we're champions. Last 8 NLDs: 7W 1D 0L. Did they hex themselves?

Because he’s selfish, cold, and clearly self-important. Oh, but let me back up… isn’t he a Liverpool supporter? Occam’s Razor.

🤣 Brilliant. This is what happens. It’s called karma. * When you beg your team to lose so Arsenal don’t win… ** You lose. - But a lot more than you expected. *** Arsenal win anyway. - But a lot more than you expected. Play your game. Take your best shot. Always. That’s sport. #COYG

Wissa ‘nother goal, Newcastle go up by 2 at The Loo. The stadium looks like a toilet bowl… of course they play like 💩 poodoo 💩 there. What are Tottenham? 💩 What is 💩? Tottenham Truer words were never written, read, or spoken.

Elanga puts the Magpies ahead 1-0 at The Loo. Tottenham are again feckless at home. (Still) His shot is a bit of gold up followed by a spin and left-footed “Scooter special” … in off the post. Tottenham 0-1 Newcastle in the 65th minute.

We got three of the teams I wanted: Bayern away Dortmund home Lille home We also got: Home: Madrid and Sabah Road: Napoli, Betis, and Slavia. Slavia Prague is the furthest travel. That’s not terrible. Madrid at home will be spectacular! Thoughts?

Turning off comments is everything here, @seung.bsky.social. Poor decisions for 22 years noted. Tottenham’s intentional loss in last match vs Team 115 Charges on May 15, 2024 is the most shameful act of poor sportsmanship I’ve ever seen. It’s all the evidence needed: North London is 🔴🔴🔴. #COYG
