Arsenal, 'The Intolerables': Why no one wants Mikel Arteta's side to win the Premier League title The Gunners find themselves seven points clear of City and potentially a short time away from winning their first Premier League crown in over 20 years,

Last night crystallised the burgeoning sense that it isn't just their rivals, everyone hates Arsenal. But why?

The stories that are being told about the leaders, even by opposition managers, just don't stand up to much analysis.

I’m going to enjoy this feeling all day, and probably for most of next week… ❀️🀍❀️🀍❀️🀍❀️

Not that the ref would have done it mind you…

Ps Palmer’s only significant actions of the match. Wasteman!

In your second picture you can see Cole Palmer trying to impede Jurrien Timber, and you can also see Bukayo Saka on the floor, the result of manhandling by Palmer for which he was rightfully booked.

IF he had taken down Timber he would have deserved the β€œMartinelli at Wolves” double yellow…

Nicolas Jackson: Why on-loan Bayern striker can play Chelsea Just 16 days after leaving on loan, Nicolas Jackson could come back to haunt Chelsea with Bayern Munich on Wednesday.

Yes. UEFA does not have the same restrictions as the Premier league. Other instances have happened in recent years: www.espn.com.au/football/sto...

Latest Champions League bracket with what I think is the most favourable draw for Arsenal FC.

Latest Champions League bracket with what I think is the most favourable draw for Arsenal FC.

Ideally we end up in bracket with Sporting rather than citeh 🀞🏼

My current preference remains the β€œblue bracket” (Bayer Leverkusen) along with Sporting and spuds, bit of a toss up between BarΓ§a and chavs.

Chavs probably the easier option but hate facing PL teams in Europe…

Please could you tell me, are there any implications for the draw with London logistics? Eg Arsenal, chavs, and spuds all playing at home in the same week?

Not a playing ban.

In theory they could get to 62, we currently have 61…

Good morning Gooners,

Living β€œDown Under” I’ve been stewing on this all fucking day!

I’ll always love the team, but that really hurt.

That said, I’m always behind them, and hope they can turn this round, they’ve definitely got the quality, and some of them have the guts…

Hopefully enough🀞🏼❀️🀍❀️🀍❀️
