A freak show that emphasised the farce of the Premier League's current unreality The response of City fans, which does complicate some of the discussion I think they are "victims" but that's harder when you're revelling in it (before the win) www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

And yes, it does mention US billionaires and Arsenal’s sponsorships But as important as all that is, it’s negligible next to the influence of a hydrocarbon global power - look at effect of Strait of Hormuz This is what it does to football www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

Comment: amid all the debate about Chelsea, the most serious point has been overlooked A now-sanctioned oligarch was able to manipulate English football through industrialised cheating - and this is barely addressed The meaning of the payments is as big www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

As a Manchester United fan I rightly expect absolutely no sympathy for the abject state of my club. I will also say: Wenger's Arsenal overwhelmed Manchester United fair and square, while Chelsea and Manchester City didn't, and football as a whole is still paying a huge price for that.
Wenger got mocked and memed for years on end while other clubs, particularly Chelsea, had to break the law repeatedly to beat his Arsenal side. It is shameful but of course capitalism has no shame.

@scott.cannonstats.com or @adam.cannonstats.com, there is always talk about the new manager bounce», an effect which exists, though subtle. Does there exist a new player bounce? Think January signings, with little time to adapt, e.g., Guehi and Semenyo. Will their form dip?
If there is one thing you are guaranteed with the thirty it is hard hitting analysis by @philcosta.bsky.social and @arseblog.com What do Edu do????
Merino is to @arsenalvisionpodcast.com , what set-pieces are to mainstream football media. A persistent and undeniable nusance.
@edzitron.com @parismarx.com a norwegian municipality was forced to stop a process for restructuring the local school system, which could have seen 8 schools shuttered. Why? Because they suspect the report they were basing the decision on, included AI generated citations 🤯 www.nrk.no/tromsogfinnm...
