This is precisely what Priti Patel and Kemi Badenoch did too, for exactly the same reason (they’re horrible people who behave horrendously, and this usually manifests itself as seething contempt for liberalism in general)

Not saying this isn't the official line, but Medvedev is crazy

Mistakes anyone could make

Something something he'd know all about cheating in sports. Wait my lawyers want to speak to me.

If nothing else, the decision to sack Robbins, when he didn't need to, must rank as one of the most absurd acts of political self-harm any prime minister has yet committed. All of this eminently foreseeable.

Seen bits of Robbins evidence this morning. Pretty funny that he basically says the original Guardian story is incorrect? If Starmer hadn't panicked and sacked him straight away he could at least have tried to ride it out as everyone following procedure rather than the shitstorm he has ended up in.

Zubimendi was not a good signing

Zubimendi 😱

We just haven't signed very many have we. Compared to how we absolutely have to be well stocked in full backs by the end of every window.

There's that stat about how bad Martinelli/Gyokeres/Madueke are together and its like... they are three of our main attackers!

I think a pretty basic foundation of talent ID and recruitment is "can this player play with our other players" and Viktor simply cannot.

Which would be enough!

Should I trust the bookies or Opta supercomputer more here

Qualifying for a European competition a bit different to something like relegation.

Yes I'm afraid I don't trust the boys at all at this stage.

Easy

Yeah, like even a draw today and I wouldn't have trusted us to see how it in the remaining games.

Yes Chelsea imploding is very annoying. Could easily see Villa getting rolled over big time on the final day. Oh well, gotta win our games first haven't we.

Why is it v likely

And if we don't do it, it has nothing to do with today, it'll be about the performances over the course of the season. If we'd played anywhere near this level in some of the games we've dropped points in, today wouldn't have mattered at all.

I think we can go 5 from 5 in the remaining games, but can we score enough goals.

I kind of made my peace with it after the Bournemouth game but yeah, lot of good boys who should really be PL title winners.

Yes City away was always going to be a 50/50 game which is why everyone was going crazy about the stupid points we've been dropping since Christmas.

would probably have big Vik on now

i am a neutral and i want arsenal to win the league because human rights abusing petrostates are worse than annoying fans, and i don't understand how this isn't a consensus opinion.

A red card won't change that
