How can you be happy when Huertzeler’s so sad?

TLDR: he’s a c*nt

Principle 1: be a shit manager and general dislikeable c*nt.
Principle 2: wears a shit puffy body warmer.

He’s true to his principles though.

Because Chris Kavanagh is a cunt?

Remember how when Arsenal were fighting for the title with United there was endless hand-wringing about our disciplinary record (despite United not exactly being a team of saints). This is that.

Show some respect mate, his speaking topics include both ’Football Speaker’ and ‘Sports Speaker’. Proper polymath.

There are some properly moany c*nts around here. And I say that as a pretty glass-half-empty sort of a person. Am I enjoying every game: no. Am I though going to slag off the team after another win in a local derby: again, no. These games aren’t pre-season fucking friendlies. This is high stakes.

Did you feel this way 7 days ago?

The hearing will take place in two weeks, but then City will tie up the verdict with lawfare and diplomatic shenanigans until after Rohdri has retired.

I’m not going to lie, that level of tidying makes my heart skip a beat 🤓😂

No surprise. It all felt like play-acting at the time!

Like it’s at the point where you start thinking it’s an actual yips thing.

Never mind not celebrating because of VAR, now at the point where I won’t be celebrating until a good 10-15 minutes after we score. Come on lads.

Remember back when we could defend a lead? No, me neither

Irrelevant in a derby, sadly!!

So what you’re saying is they’re due

This feels like it is giving no weight to the order of events, which is where I think stats and real life can diverge.
