I'm just gonna start a thread of the wild shit I get sent on disc and other social media stuff just to keep a running log so yall can see why I am the way I am 🧵⬇️

Don't think that this is the wrong take at all, but I will say that some kids thrive under that firm, near ruthless hand from a coach because I was that kid. Equal parts confident that Arteta knows his player as I am that it'll all be worked out if Dowman took exception to it.

You can understand Max reacting. The referee saw more in it than anyone else, and it's never a red. I think Mikel Arteta's reaction was really poor. He's 16, your job – in every aspect – is to protect him. Lessons can be learned behind the scenes, not in front of the cameras.

I know being out of that dumbass EFL cup is clearly the best thing long term. Doesn't mean I can't be furious about the performance.

For all the physical gifts that Dowman has he doesn't quite have it above the shoulders yet, does he? Still baffled at how stupid of a thing to do that was. It was a bad call by the ref but when you give English refs an opportunity they're more often than not going to make an ass of themselves.

FT: 1-1 We go to penalties. Arsenal were a tiny bit better in the second half but still so much of it was poor. Tonight Havertz and Gyokeres make me pine for Kaba Diawara and Maraoune Chamakh.

Mosquera committing a foul when he didn't even need to... These guys don't want to be here, man. The lot of them can get fucked.

Players warmed up, played for like 5 mins, and now go cold again. Whoever is flying that drone deserves the fucking worst.

What’s remarkable here isn’t just the sentiment, which is obviously weird and depressing, but that a media trained executive who has been doing interviews for decades thought this was an anecdote that would land well.

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Saka could never play another minute for Arsenal, never score another goal, never wear the shirt again and I’ll never not immediately smile when I think of the guy. What a dude.
