@themagic_tophat I mean, in the mafia's defence... they won the league last season lol...
Our banter years were so much worse/compounded because of length of time since last major honours. No one is hesitating writing Tottenham off, at least sports-wise.
English
Five years ago, Arsenal finished 8th with 61pts. We were written out of the “Big 6”. Universally mocked in the media.
Liverpool have just 59pts with one game remaining. After spending £500m in the summer.
North West Media mafia - where art thou now? 🦗🦗🦗

@Fightincowboy @adbrad90 I normally would 1000000% agree with your stance re this.
But the industry is run by a massive circle jerk. Ignoring does absolutely nothing, publishers still rush to IGN for some reason to offer coverage.
Don't give them clicks, but mock endlessly imo.
English
@adbrad90 If you want to spend your time mocking them instead of ignoring you are directly responsible for giving them legitimacy. Every screen cap of an IGN review, every sub tweet, every interaction is you further putting them into the spotlight. Haters are their biggest supporters.
English
Genuine question, did IGN fuck your mother over the kitchen table on Christmas morning or something because this level of obsession is ridiculous.
Y'all bitch up and down about how irrelevant and bad IGN is and then every review y'all become professional dick riders.

Maybe if subnautica 2 had a tongue battling mini game with fish it could've gotten a higher score

@WomblingWombler why are you supporting such terrible businesses then? don't stiff the worker, instead don't go to the restaurant. if you're supporting the asshole owner and not the worker, then how are you not an asshole as well?
English
i think this is a fair practice given that tipping culture isn't going to be solved in the next 2 months and European tourists are fucking assholes

Some restaurants have planned an automatic 20% tip for U.S. visitors. 💰🇺🇸

@EBL2017 Fernandes loves Man U and Bruno ofc. But Bruno won’t be there much longer and Man U haven’t challenged for a PL or UCL in 13 years. And they don’t know who their manager is next season.
I don’t think we get Rice the way we did if we hadn’t challenged Man City for the title.
English
Manchester United can't let Arsenal get their hands on Mateus Fernandes…
Similar situation to when Arsenal and City battled it out for Declan Rice.
Arsenal are already great but Fernandes elevates the midfield even further. Complete player. Flawless.
He raises levels alone.
English
@afcjxmes I don't like the darker strip.
Don't be pussies and do the whole kit that darker red.
Would be an all timer.
English
Decent kit.
Not sure what people aren’t happy about.
afcstuff@afcstuff
Thoughts on Arsenal’s new home kit, Gooners? 👕🔴
English
@_PhilCosta is he a 6 in the Rodri mould? Or more of what we already have?
English
There will be an (expensive) midfield merry-go-round in the Premier League this summer and Mateus Fernandes could be a cheaper, but still exciting, option within that.
Been excellent since moving into a deeper role at West Ham - could be a market opportunity if they go down.

@ThePrimeagen They're the best for a reason.
Those reasons clash philosophically with the open ecosystem people.
Know what you're getting and understand why they're the best.
English
@TheIshikawaRin Your purchase of a single game on Steam means nothing to Sony.
They make money, just like Steam, by you being on their ecosystem.
The only reason they release games at all on Steam anymore is for the health of mp games.
English
If they released Saros day one on PC I think it would've helped a lot, it's baffling that Sony didn't do that.
Eurogamer@eurogamer
Saros is off to a slower start than Returnal, with some analysts concerned Housemarque "will struggle to break even" eurogamer.net/saros-ps5-sale…

@inkblotPrincess wtf are you talking about?
Elden Ring does the literal opposite... unless you're following a guide and know where all the treasures are.
I combed through that entire map with a fine-toothed comb (miserable af at MOTG...)
English
People always call me crazy when I say this but in Elden Ring specifically the game directly teaches you the value of simply running by things and it's a massive detriment to the game
Rech🦦@Rechardart
Playing DS2 has made me realise how much I love actually clearing a level and going through it slowly, DS3 and Elden Ring really discourage that and it’s quite disappointing.
English
@Fightincowboy They've been silent a looong time.
Imagine they just dropped another expansion? lol...
English
Fromsoft either gotta drop something for the anniversary or stop with these shenanigans. Can't be playing with our emotions like this constantly.

@TomCantonMedia I'm not even sure how you combat it at scale. You'd have to attribute each quote to a source that might not even be digitized?
Maybe you're not even allowed to post a quote unless you, yourself, provide the source in some way?
Would make your job harder though.
English
It's surprising it has taken this long, and it seems that the X community notes are not keeping up with this new trend.
With engagement a premium on the platform, fake quotes are starting to gain momentum on X. Incredibly dangerous and something needs to be done to curb it.

@MarcWDKnight I’m sick of seeing the bruised banana classic kit undertones every other year in the Adidas era. It was cool once, now it’s getting out of hand.
Also the yellow kit looks like someone messed around with their washing mashing settings. Full fat yellow please ffs
English
@_PhilCosta ...that's a weird place for the hand to go, no?
Raising, sure, it can't not. But all the way to your forehead...?

@REDactionAFC ffs, how many panicked, fearful performances do you need before y'all realize they need CALM, not this...

Mikel wants it
The players want it
The fans want it

@adrianjclarke I'm not gonna lie, even as an Arsenal fan, I found the exasperation very funny.
You can hear it in their sighs.
'Oh are you fucking kidding me with this right now?!'

Credit where it's due. This is diligent from the officials, covering all bases, and overall it's an excellent use of VAR.
