Ødegaard successfully paring down his role in this Arsenal team as the guy whose job is to hand the ball to Saka on penalties

It’s because Arsenal are nearly always the protagonists in media narratives, vs other clubs as the antagonists. They’re perceived to be the central character in the story, so failings are somehow more a choice when compared to other clubs

Man City spent another £200m in January, lost to Forest this weekend, are 8 points behind us, and all I see is negative Arsenal press (who despite the crisis, are 2nd in the league). Strange.

There is literally no indication that Oliver was ever going to ref this game

🔺UPDATED: Michael Oliver will not referee Arsenal's home game against Manchester City this weekend. The referee's family home is under police protection. More from @Lawton_Times and @mhardysport below. thetimes.com/sport/football…

It’s Rice’s relative lack of ability to receive on the half turn that is one of Arsenal’s biggest problems. If there’s an opponent close to him he will generally only pass backwards again - unlike Partey who is one of the best at beating that first press

No player in Europe's top five leagues has made more progressive passes this season than Declan Rice (184) 🎯 Looking 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 👀

@JackdeMenezes Loool. You didn’t seem to raise this issue when I was driving some actual readers to your stories

@TomEmburyD Happened a lot more often under your watch, too

I used to do this job for the Indy and it’s seriously unlikely this would have been done intentionally. These fuck ups happen a lot but usually fixed before many people notice

Hi @Independent would you mind editing or removing this Facebook post, it suggests I’m the person in question and frankly the comments are disgusting.

Sad news has been announced about Dele Alli today 💔 From one of the best young players to this..

@kevinmitchell50 @jcorrigangolf @GaryLineker @ErlingHaaland Easier to score back in the 50s/60s though. About 0.5-1 goals more per match back then compared to today
English
@jcorrigangolf @GaryLineker @ErlingHaaland Only if he never saw Jimmy Greaves. Check their goals per match at Haaland’s point in his career. Jimmy is a couple up. But that’s olden times. Which doesn’t count, of course.

26 minutes between goals for @ErlingHaaland. Almost a goal drought.

@Zonal_Marking Even the idea of ‘consistency’ is massively misused in football. If the fourth best team win around half their games, they’re going to lose/draw to lots of teams beneath them. It’s not a failure of consistency but of not being good enough to win more
English
The second sentence here is spot on. Next up: Fulham/Norwich aren't somehow embarrassing for yo-yoing, their level is just between the 18th-22nd best clubs in the country every year, and that's fair enough.

There's been a lot of talk, admittedly often from a Utd perspective, on how bad a top-4 race this has been. And it's just not the case - I think people misunderstand what it means to be the 4th best team in league of 20. You're going to be inconsistent! theathletic.com/3276348/2022/0…

@MJGold @AlmeidaVictorK Wouldn’t 9.9 have been getting you close?
English
I really wanted to run sub 10, but never dedicated a season to it. My goals:🥇’s & WR’s. Not possible for me in the 100. Running 9.9 would just be a novelty. And it took 6 & 10 years to get those WRs. Thanks for sharing @AlmeidaVictorK Interesting perspectives in the thread.

@OwenJones84 I imagine he’s meaning to echo Nato’s position re Article 5 rather than ‘we should start nuclear war if Russia invades Europe’

We really are now in the realms of debating whether the extinction of humanity is so bad that avoiding it trumps everything else

The overriding moral imperative is to not risk billions of people dying in a nuclear holocaust
Garry Kasparov@Kasparov63
Risk and costs are higher now because the "reasonable" people in the West always choose lower risk today to guarantee higher risk tomorrow. Clearing the UKR skies after a warning period is risky. Letting Putin destroy Ukraine is riskier, & a human and moral disaster. 8/13
