PSG just won the Premier League too. :umad:
I glitched :russ:

Bet they can't win the Canadian Championship
:wow:
High key they might, they been wrapped up their season, Inter still has to hope for a Napoli fcck up just to tie.
It feels like a Vini situation again
lets give it to Raphina, who can't dribble a cone. :mjlol:

the Rosario walker won the damn thing while playing for psg just a few seasons ago :mjlol:
This fake ass Brazilian is one of the top scores of CL, top 3 in LL and is on his way to do the domestic double.:mjgrin:

Arteta has been a fraud :yeshrug:

Our late season football has been abysmal the last few years. That's all coaching and recruitment. Players like Saka, Odegard and Neli have not taken the next step but you can argue regressed under Arteta.

There is really no joy watching this version of Arsenal. I sat out this season and it looks like I didn't miss much :manny:
I agree with most of this, but Saka did take the next step this season. He was injured for 2 months. He produced 6g/10a in league , and 6g/2a in UCL. He's not 100% right now, so he'll get a pass. He was truly playing some special football before the injury. I have no clue what happened with Odegaard and Martinell is a lost cause because he has developed any skills to get pass players.

Saka's injury did expose how one dimensional Arteta is because our form shouldn't have dropped that much without him. It also goes to show you how poor his and Edu recruitment was because these past seasons our major need was a striker and they allowed many windows pass them by without addressing it. Merino filling in was a miracle, but he's not a striker. Havertz is okay but we easily could've used that money on a striker instead of a guy who didn't fit the original position he wanted to use him for.

I was willing to give Arteta a pass because he lost to Pep but losing to a Slot is inexcusable. This is this man's first time coaching in a top flight league

The way Nwaneri couldn't even touch pitch in a must win game when we're losing :scust:

I've had it with Arteta man, I haven't been feeling his tactical approach and style for a minute

Odegaard has become this nasty defensive #8 with little personality, he isn't a true playmaker in this team or system

Simply signing new players isn't going to change enough

imagine future young soccers fans going back to watch all the highlights of past Balloon d'r winners and then they get to Raphina skill highlights :hhh:

if Psg wins the treble, it should go to Dembouz

if they don't, then Yamal
