For my dog and Arsenal. Against the American Fascist Movement (AKA MAGA). All with equal passion.
Not to make Arsenal sound too virtuous, as the possibility of extending Partey and the time it took to eliminate the Rwanda sponsorship were both stains on the club.
I have no opinion about the religion, but this Arsenal side is collectively and individually the most likeable group of players I have ever experienced in my 50 years watching numerous team sports. It seems like Arsenal has made it a point to only recruit good people (Partey notwithstanding).

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

This is spot-on.

The UVA "deal" might be the worst/most dangerous (so far). With the help of UVA's leadership, Trump coerced a leading U.S. university to foreswear all efforts (including 100% lawful measures) to achieve diversity.

A betrayal of our values.

During the draft, in real time, it seemed shocking that Forbes was selected prior to Gonzalez.... a true physical specimen and a seemingly certain top 10 pick.

Watching Forbes these last five games has made me understand why Washington liked him. Rams lucked out that he failed so badly in DC.

Should we start giving up more shots so that the ratio won't be so bad?
Arsenal have conceded four goals from the last five shots on target faced in the Premier League.

I'm not surprised at all about Liverpool's defensive collapse. I'm not even surprised by Wirtz's serious problems adapting to the EPL. And even the Isak problems were predictable. But the Salah utter collapse is shocking. A progressive decline would be normal, but he walked off of a cliff.
Even allowing for the many issues you can logically point to, especially lopsided team, Liverpool shouldn't be this bad.

It feels less explainable than City last season, Leicester 2016-17 (obviously) or Chelsea 2015-16.

That was likely me. Expected them to have numerous high scoring wins, draws & losses. Very surprised their attack has been so poor. Not surprised their defense has been awful.

Before the season it was quite clear that we shared a similar ceiling. But their floor was always 20+ points below ours.
When people said they would have a lot of 4-2 matches this season, turns out they were only half-right

We deserved the win but, at the same time, Sunderland deserved the point.

Hard not to respect the courage and desire shown by Sunderland.

Kepa, White, MLS, Mosquera and Hincapie would be a better starting back five than at least 14 clubs in the league have today.

Those (others) remarking on our weak bench are exclusively focused on attack. We can always bring in MLS or Hincapie and push Calafiori.....pretty much all over. We're fine.
Man our bench is so short of options, can’t believe the board and Berta let us go into the season with such poor depth

When people talk about the excesses of MeToo, they have to lie, because the reality is that there was no massive social reckoning forcing people to believe survivors or hold perpetrators accountable. In fact, there has been a significant backsliding and new punishments in rejection of MeToo

Obviously she won't win, but you can safely predict that Stefanik's antisemitic conspiracy theories about "Soros" and "globalists" and aides/staffers of hers being in the youth GOP "I love Hitler"/"Throw them in the gas chambers" chat will get nowhere near the scrutiny Mamdani did.

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

Spike and the future mayor of New York are certainly star power. But even with Hathaway and so many star American athlete Arsenal supporters, it doesn't make up for Bin Laden....and far worse, Piers Morgan. I hate that two of the biggest villains of this century are/were Gooners.
We really don't make enough of Spike Lee being an Arsenal fan.
A win double for gooners last night. One in Prague and one in New York.

Completely unfair to Palace to have them play 5 games in 11 days. And within that 11 days would be Sunday at Man City followed by Tuesday at Arsenal. Arsenal have a busy period also, but Carabao Cup on the 16th would be an extraordinary competitive advantage for Arsenal......bordering on criminal.
The Carabao Cup quarter-final tie between Arsenal and Crystal Palace has created a scheduling headache.

There is little free space in the calendar — leaving Christmas Eve or the prospect of Palace playing four games in eight days as potential solutions.

All restart delays are a problem. For any restart where the ref doesn't intervene, there should be a maximum 15 seconds from when the taking team has ball in hand. If time expires then change of possession. This is fan-friendly and reduces frustration, even if it won't change the numbers that much.
Long throws are taking a lot of time out of the game. More than ten mins have been lost in some matches as teams limber up.

Can anything actually be done? Should there be a ‘throw-in clock’? Is it even really a problem?

A piece looking at all of that

Long throws, long delays. Does something need to be done?
The return of the tactic means the ball is in play for a shorter period. Rule changes are being discused but is that the way to go?

If we're up after 75, I would like to see Mosquera on for Timber and Hincapie on for MLS.
That’s the team I would have picked as well. Big night for Eze, and useful rotation on the left side to hopefully give us some fresh legs.

You can never underestimate Atletico but they aren’t the defensive juggernaut we all remember. Got much more to offer in attack now.
Here’s the #AFC lineup for tonight’s game against Atletico Madrid.

Raya; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Lewis-Skelly; Eze, Zubimendi, Rice; Saka, Gyokeres, Martinelli
