i got arsenal fans following me so i KNOW i posted bad opinions
i've deleted my posts and just want to remind everyone: regardless of my political views, gender expression, or sexuality, i will NEVER be above clowning arsenal fans 😤
Due to a strange turn of events, I might be able to introduce Arsenal to an LGS this Friday!
Reminder that the goal is still to get the @arsenalmtg.bsky.social Discord Server to 100 people!

Arsenal's attack are demanding perfection from their defenders right now. The back seven weren't quite there against Sporting but were close enough when it really mattered.
Can they get even closer at the Etihad? They'll need to.
Anyone who tries to tell me that Arsenal are soft, that they don't have the "desire" or whatever ridiculousness you want to call it to win can MEET ME IN TEMECULA.
Mikel Arteta says Arsenal’s players nominated Declan Rice as captain for their last two games:
“They made the decision because Declan has earned the status, the role, the way he's taken ownership in difficult moments.”

🎥 "Semi-finalists! But only semi convincing..." - Arsenal 0-0 Sporting CP (1-0) | On the Whistle

I cannot believe I've lived long enough to see Arsenal criticized for both *celebrating too much* at the whistle and *not celebrating enough* at the whistle
#blessed
Thierry Henry: "Come on Arsenal. Show the fire at the Etihad. I believe in you.”
The Arsenal 0 (1) - (0) 0 Sporting Club de Portugal - when Havertz won that aerial duel from CF second half I burst into tears of joy
Really pleased with what Arsenal did tonight, particularly how they played to their strength.
This team is built on being really tough to play against and they completely shut down a free-scoring Sporting side.
Keep leaning into the things that got you this far!
Arteta: I wish we were doing the Arsenal documentary this year and you could film the last 48 hours… Enjoy where we are as a club.
Sure it's annoying and unprofessional when Thierry Henry calls the current Arsenal team "we" in his studio commentary but have you considered how funny it would be if he did it for the New York Red Bulls
Arsenal have kept six clean sheets in nine matches against Sporting Lisbon.

Arsenal on Rice taking the armband ahead of Gabriel: "[The players] made a decision because Declan has earned it… He is taking ownership in difficult moments."
Declan Rice on the upcoming Man City clash: “How much do you want it? I know I'll be ready, and I know our players will be ready, so let's go. Let’s have it.”
Mikel Arteta reveals Declan Rice has been given the captaincy over the past two games as the Arsenal players decided he has to have it.
You can't ask for much more from Arsenal from today's game.
Guys re-energized, backups stepped up, and the team asserted their defensive identity.
It could have gone the other way with the recent body-blow results. But these guys fight.
And I'm backing them with every breath. Up the Arsenal.
Arsenal tifo with Trossard eyes turned to 0-0 and arrow from sights
Brilliant plan from the Arsenal...
It was hidden in plain sight... 0-0

I am sure a lot of people who care more about being down on Arsenal will deride this tie as insufficient, unimpressive, underwhelming.
But in our state, with our injuries, in the context of recent struggles, reaching the CL semis is a massively impressive accomplishment.
Kudos to the entire team.
It’s mid-April. Arsenal are through to the Champions League semi-finals and six points clear at the top of the Premier League table.
The Etihad up next in a huge six pointer.
Full faith. We got this. The Arsenal. 🫡
Before facing Arsenal, Sporting had been shutout once all season.
After facing Arsenal, they've been shutout three times.
JOB DONE! Horrible watch but Arsenal in back-to-back semi finals for the first time in the club's history. We were nervous and patched up but some big individual performances saw us through - thought we closed the game out well.
Zubimendi and Hincapie really strong, Rice walked through. YES!
And yes I want to see us a lot better. See the Arsenal that dismantled Bayern. With a bit more luck, key players return and we can improve. Tonight was all about going though, as much as I was desperate for a morale boosting win! Onwards and upwards!

It’s impossible to root for a team that play like Arsenal.
