Tactically, but also culturally, would it be fair to say that over a year into the job, Renee has failed to instil a clear identity on this Arsenal side?

Why are they treating this like it matters lol

Tottenham look so much better under Thomas Frank but at their core they are still Tottenham

Very conflicted about the fact that we’re finally wearing a nice away kit but at the cost of both teams wearing their away kits - aka the utter woke nonsense final boss

We might be back…

I Can’t Look at Arsenal the Same Way After Thomas Partey It’s not normal for any fan to support 10 of your team’s players instead of 11 – but that’s what Arsenal forced many fans to do over the past three years. It should have been different.

“After all, football boardrooms – like Arsenal's – are overwhelmingly dominated by men, and it is men not calling out other men that allows this awful cycle to repeat itself.”

The hardest article I’ve ever had to write – on a very important but harrowing subject www.versus.uk.com/articles/i-c...

And I believe the only reason we wore blue in 2023 was due to a shorts clash

I believe the blue kit at the 2023 WWC is the only change strip that an England senior team have at a tournament since the 2019 WWC. Which makes sense when most international teams don’t play in white, but still.

Thanks!!

New! Arsenal Women Arsecast with @maxrads.bsky.social and I discussing the signings of Chloe Kelly and Taylor Hinds, other areas we’d like to see Arsenal strengthen, then there’s chat about Lia Walti at the Euros and Michelle Agyemang’s future

Pleasure to be a guest on the AWFC Arsecast to chat with Tim about new signings, the Euros, and squad planning for next season 🎙️

I want the manager asked about this in every press conference and interview all season, no matter how many times he offers no comment.

It's shameful that we were even considering renewing him.

The people at the top of the club were not blind to this situation, and still considered it in the interests of sporting expedience.

Lessons should be learned.

Genuinely an incredible effort, that. Fair play!

Late to this but intrigued to know how many people would have been to both games last weekend, got to be in the single figures

Watching Arsenal win the Champions League with my friends Sunday March 5th 2023 was a day that changed my life.

This piece went down really well on the other place™️ so reposting on here for Bluesky people. A long emotional piece on being able to share one of Arsenal’s greatest days with some amazing people.

A real pleasure to record this one. It got emotional.

I’m blocked. Who is it?

bsky.app/profile/that... For me, this is where we really miss someone like Havertz

In one-off matches, finishing can come and go (as we are painfully reminded last night). Overall however, Arsenal don't have a clinical finishing problem buff.ly/ELzyDP3

Think we create more chances with one of those players in the team and therefore have a better chance of scoring. Finishing hasn’t really been a problem for Arsenal under Arteta. We over performed our xG significantly across the knockout phase!

Yep exactly! Today is basically the first time I’ve had a chance to properly think about one of the biggest games the Emirates will have ever seen because of the past 48 or so hours 😅

Renee has reacted really well to this today. McCabe is tucking in to stop counters when Arsenal come forward and rarely venturing into the final third.
