U falling for the arsenal hype again..i'll believe it when i see it

They've been playing good breh. Young team showing hunger.. Pressing.. Better play in the final third. Also good momentum right now. I don't think they've lost for a while

Not a good time to go to the Emirates :patrice:

Needed that. Mainly because I really think we're going to drop points at the Emirates. A draw wouldn't be so bad now.
:patrice:

After tonight's result, Liverpool should be motivated enough to give Arsenal the beats. This is arsenal remember :mjgrin:


Crazy to think the league is now in Liverpools hands, considering (i think) bookies were paying out in Jan when city were 11pts clear?:dwillhuh:

Big up to Benz on another record. Seeing him break Henry’s record and Ronaldo breaking the all time FIFA recognized goal tally really got me thinking about how far sports science has come in prolonging the careers of players. Before at 28/29 players would be on their last big contract.

Now you have guys like Lewa, Benz, Modric, CR7 and even Zlatan performing at high levels well into their mid-30s.

Dude, baby steps, as an organization this institution that is Arsenal simply has to learn how to properly crawl first, which they're just learning how to do.

Wenger, Gazidis and the board left this club a mess, with no real structure or any sort of plan. This club simply had to gut itself, and start over.

I am pleased, cause I'm seeing the little things finally being done right, from the bottom up. We finally seem to have a proper plan with our academy. For the first time in a long time, you can actually see good coaching taking place. The apathetic attitude is finally being removed from this club.

If you can't see what's going on at this club, and feel some sense of excitement. then honestly go support Bayern, Madrid, or whomever else wins trophies every season. Cause honestly you've been a supporter off this club long enough to know that Arsenal will never be a plug and go club
Breh, don’t be condescending. I’ve been supporting Arsenal since before soccer was even relevant here. I’m not a one and done fan. I’ve woken up early on Saturdays just to watch Ian Wright, Henry, Anelka etc.

This “sense of excitement” and “squad is coming together” mantra has been said so many times. It’s like the boyfriend that tells his girl “things will be different this time” but keeps on fukking up. You can keep on being the battered wife that forgives.

Apparently, holding your club to high standards makes one a fair weather fan. Let’s negate the fact we get charged the most expensive tickets in the UK (possibly Europe), we’ve been taking baby steps for so long, we look like a pre-pubescent who hasn’t learned how to walk yet.

Again, I’m just being a realist. How much time and how many managers will it take before we stop becoming a joke club? This game against Liveroool will tell us. Am I expecting a win?

Honestly no, but if we get bent over again, I don’t know how any Arsenal fan could be happy. But hey, if we get a decent result against Liverpool, I’ll eat my own words.
