How long before ‘TV off’ in this Newcastle v City game?

They absolutely went for us in our game - they’ll roll over and have their bellies tickled today.

Do you think it’s a level of arrogance? Ignorance? What is it? It’s so weird that they had a platform to build in the summer and just went full “nah mate - just do all the goals in the attack, it’ll be fine, we’re Liverpool” 🤷

All they did is metaphorically go “nah - we’re Liverpool mate. Central midfield? Not a problem. Whack Gravenberch in there - that’ll do”

It kind of feels like arrogance to not address some of their deficiencies.

“We’re Liverpool, we’re awesome, we’ll just lean in to our attacking awesomeness and everything will be ‘tip-top”

Liverpool’s whole season has become the ‘Aubameyang/Özil post contract’ season.

I for 1 am delighted because of smugness of Slot last season and his constant “losers make excuses” narrative.

Mate - you had a once-in-a-lifetime season where EVERYTHING went your way last year

This is going the way of The Rodgers for Liverpool….

Bloody hell….Liverpool are cooked

Only just had a look at the scores 😳

The press conferences are done, we’re a little clearer on whose around for the NLD (sort of) Having spent the whole week lamenting the massive injury crisis that surrounds the North London Derby this weekend, both Arsenal fans and them got a bit more of an inkling as to how actually it's not ...

The press conferences done, so what do we know about who is around tomorrow? Sort of...a bit...kind of....not a lot...I don't think anyone expected different though. But here are some thoughts on both pressers anyway - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/11/22/t...

Cole Palmer: Chelsea forward breaks toe in accident at home and will miss next three matches Cole Palmer has broken a toe in an accident at home meaning he will miss Chelseas games with Burnley, Barcelona and Arsenal; England forward stubbed a toe on his left foot against a door; he had been ...

I know we've got other things to worry about this weekend, but that's a bit of a touch, to be fair - www.skysports.com/football/new...

Yeah - I’m actually not seeing it either - but saw a few people reposting last night with him throwing the ball in the air

Yesterday I believe

Also think Frank is gonna do this on Sunday and break from the norm of his teams this season - just a gut feel

I see this and being the person I am, rather than take comfort in it, I merely think "I bet this effing weekend it'll be the 13%, won't it?"

Hints of unexpected returns ahead of Arteta’s press conference Happy Friday folks - how we all doing? Let's start with some positive news, which is that yesterday afternoon Big Vik took to his Instagram to get pictures of himself in training. Given how Arsenal s...

Ahead of the press conferences today, I'm interested to know what Arteta made of Big Vik posting on Instagram looking like he's fit - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/11/21/h...

Love your pod - I don’t listen to loads, but you guys are on the subscribe list 👍

Ødegaard, Madueke, Martinelli and Gyokeres to all make the match day squad would be massive

I really enjoyed listening to this.

I mean, I’m terrified now, but still enjoyed listening to it.

Tale of two NLD injury squads isn’t what we all suspect… Firstly, a tip of the cap to the Arsenal Women, who beat Real Madrid again in 2025 in the Champions League. Nice work ladies! Always good to see. As for the men, well, they'll all be back now and the...

Think there's more than meets the eye with these two 'injury hit' squads. We know we might be getting one or two back, but The Scum are getting almost all of theirs back for Sunday I think. Some thoughts - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/11/20/t...

Big Gabi’s bad news means a step up for the two newbies Yesterday morning I was brushing my teeth and I was thinking about the Big Gabi injury. I thought to myself "it feels like every time we get an injury update from a Fabrizio Romano or an Ornstein Bomb...

The bad Big Gabi news provides an opportunity for Hincapie or Mosquera - or both. Some Wednesday morning thoughts - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/11/19/b...

Well that was entirely predictable n’all.

This morning I was brushing my teeth and thought “bet Ornstein drops a sadness bomba on us re: Big Gabi”

Feels like when it comes to injuries that’s what we’ve had for about 18 months.

Me no likey.

Some thoughts on Big Gabi's injury and the impact, as well as the fact we have Michael Olivier reff'ing us on Sunday...

I’d like to personally apologise to all Arsenal fans.

This Gabi injury is all my fault.

FFS

🤦‍♂️

Big Gabi on his own turf With Jurrien Timber the only concern for us last night in terms of injury worries, today becomes a bit of a quiet one, with a number of players playing today, including Big Gabi I suspect at The Emira...

Had some thoughts about Big Gabi today, who plays at The Emirates for Brazil this afternoon - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/11/15/b...

Eze’s England goal shows how he can carve out his own niche at The Arsenal So the Arsenal boys did the business last night for England. Not that I was watching. Now that England are qualified these matches become nothing more than glorified friendlies and all that leaves me ...

The goal Eze scored, plus the positions he took up and the fact he replaced Rashford, makes me think about how he's going to need to carve out his own way of playing the different positions he does for Arsenal this season - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/11/14/e...

Some Martinelli-shaped thoughts today as I ponder whether his injury record - which has occurred every season since he joined Arsenal - is a longer-term cause for concern - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/11/13/i...

Myles Lewis-Skelly has time and good people on his side Couple of bits for us to dig into today, starting with Sky Sports reporting that there are a few clubs monitoring his situation after he's been warned by Thomas Tuchel that he needs to play more to ma...

The MLS noise around the England camp should just be treated as noise. He has good people around him and they will be focused on building out his - already ahead of schedule - career path. Some thoughts - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/11/12/m...

Had no idea about this, but if Big Dave’s on it, I’m all in.

How do Arsenal’s injuries stack up against their rivals? With the Interdull now well underway and Arsenal fans having to spend their time looking at farcical programmes like Sky Sports' Ref Watch, one could be forgiven for switching away completely from all...

Some thoughts on how our injury situation has stacked up against those around us this season - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/11/11/h...

Basically.
