    Don’t let this 4 - 1 Chelsea win distract you from the fact VAR let a lot slide in favor of Tottenham. It was just that the idiocy of Tottenham overran the leeway given by the referees. Udogie and Romero should have been sent off before the 23rd minute.

    Tottenham lose and Mudryk gets humiliated by his own teammate, couldn’t have asked for much more.

    I’m just so tired of the discourse that I actually don’t give a shit about today’s game. I think I probably need to take a break from football or at least the EPL.

      Take care of yourself. The football will always be here :) (probably unchanged though… lol)

    Not even back from injury and Brazil wants its best striker ready for whatever fuckery they have in schedule

    Van der Ven injured, Romero actually suspended (though watch them rescind it later), and Maddison injured. Karma, to be honest.

    Manchester United fans need to shut the fuck up about “stealing chants”

    You’re a 5 year old club with literally no history and your manager thinks you deserve to be in the UWCL group stage despite having never been there sit down mf

    I’m gonna be real, anyone who thinks that the media doesn’t hate us should surely be convinced by now. Wtf you mean “Arteta is a Mercedes version of Neil Warnock”

    That’s an actual headline of an actual news site.

      I’m actually just disillusioned by the whole state of football in the UK. No wonder Klopp airs his grievances so much.

          I’m not hoping for a Super League to be honest, I just want the whole football pyramid to be gutted and investigated

            Nah I just mean to get rid of the PL people in charge — though tbh PGMOL would probably still remain the same.

            I wouldn’t want an actual super league the way they proposed it, but threatening it in exchange for PGMOL reforms would be nice.

              Can’t go down that road again. It’s really like US politics, tribalism is holding us back from real reform

    Think I’ll skip listening to the arseblog and arsenal vision pods this week. I don’t need to hear more rants about referees and VAR.

    That was glorious. Lost the game, two players to injury and another two to red cards. Run out of luck finally.

    I’ve just realised that they hate us, every single fanbase/fandom of every single premier league club hates us. I’d thought Chelsea were the most hated club in the PL but they’re not.

    also I found the profile of an arsenal fan who hates arteta so much his whole profile is just that

    Suzie Wrack doesn’t hide that she’s a gooner, but this from her is gold:

    https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/nov/06/womens-super-league-talking-points-from-the-weekends-action

    “Taylor also hit out at the technical area antics of Eidevall, telling the BBC that the Arsenal manager was “bullying” the fourth official.”

    “Eidevall had already done his post-match interviews so did not have a chance to respond to the comments. He was not cautioned or spoken to by the referee during the game.”

      This is why I love the game. Excitement, drama, goals, cards, disallowed goals, high tempo and physical.

      The next goal will be vital
