No wonder we took so long trying and failing to get Sesko to sign. We kept offering him a pen, he kept refusing to take it.

Yep. It’s quite an astonishing state of affairs.

The missing goals are own goals, btw.

When people suggest ‘set piece goals’ aren’t sustainable, you can point to this breakdown of City’s premier league goal scorers instead.

No need to mock Tudor.

Seven months with a Tudor for Juventus. Anne of Cleves only lasted six.

Juventus sack manager Igor Tudor and name interim coach

Tudor failed to win eight matches on the trot before his dismissal

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaland

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 1d

For the record, we’re really, really good.

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 1d

So far this season:

14 games
12 wins
26 goals
3 conceded
11 clean sheets
11 goal scorers
∞ set piece goals

Yep. If we scored a 45 yarder two touches from kick off it would be a set piece goal.

Palace were really good today, and yet were restricted to 0.47xG.

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 1d

Were they doing this for Arsenal circa 2008-2018 when we were being criticised for being rubbish at set pieces?

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 1d

Yet another boring, rehearsed set piece goal for Arsenal.

Honestly, I think it might genuinely be the worst kit in premier league history.

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 1d

That City kit. How? How has humankind created something so wretched?

Almost perfectly aligns with Mourinho’s spell at Utd. Not a coincidence!

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 1d

My eyes weren’t deceiving me. Saka in particular looked a bit how I currently feel. 🤒

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 1d

Some of our players look like they’ve got the lurgee going around.

Seven consecutive wins for Arsenal. Five consecutive clean sheets. Three goals conceded all season. It's all looking quite serious.

The race starts here… 🐎🐎🐎

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 1d

Our second team would probably challenge for the title.

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 1d

Having to close out a crucial game without Havertz, Saka, Odegaard, Rice, Saliba.

He’s getting good at the “it’s not an excuse, but…” lines.

Philarsopher @philarsopher.bsky.social · 2d

We could lose 10-0 tomorrow and still have a better defensive record than Liverpool.
