Finally, an excellent game!

Maybe he can be sacked and we can get Erik ten Hag 🤣🤣

Found it:

Arteta was then shown a bizarre yellow card after picking up the ball while it was still on the pitch

What did Arteta get “bizarrely” booked for?

I misread the report. I thought Ethan came in in the 53rd minute but that’s his squad number!

I listened to the second half on arsenal.com. The only positives seemed to be that Nwaneri got decent minutes and Ødegaard is back in the squad.

Who knows when “the right time” is for this type of departure? Maybe it’s been in the works for months and going now gives us the chance to prepare well for the summer transfer window? Better than him taking off at the end of the season, probably. Still a bit disappointing that he’s left before the job is done. Money talks but I’m sure he wasn’t eating cup noodle and beans.

Arseblog reporting that Edu might leave the club

It used to be that a disappointing performance by the men could be ameliorated by a good one from the women. The performance was actually quite good, the result again no good.

11:30pm kickoff for me. Decided not to stay up late which was a wise decision. Although, I probably would have snoozed off well before the end of the match.

My aspiration that we would hang in there at least until the next international break doesn’t look good but we can still have a turnaround before Christmas and thereafter, especially getting Ødegaard back soon. 🤞

I’m trying to exist inside a healthy space between these two Alexander Pope quotations:

Hope springs eternal in the human breast/the hearts of Arsenal supporters

Blessed is the man/Arsenal supporter who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed

He’s not the Messiah, (but) he’s a very talented boy.

That’s bad

Yeah, I’m impressed by their sound.

I had a listen and they definitely float my boat!
