@tobyasky When do you work or you are sitting on a lifetime inheritance?



🎙️Wayne Rooney: “I’ve never seen Neymar as a top, top player.” 🇧🇷 [@WeAreTheOverlap]




Click baits everywhere. People are easily deceived on social media because of LAZINESS. People would rather believe anything than verify. Rooney said he doesn’t think Neymar is top, like in Messi-Ronaldo category, but see the narrative flying all day.




No revisionism. Arsenal were never the favorites



Antony picked up a hat and celebrated with it after scoring the fourth goal for Betis against Panathinaikos 🤣 The Brazilian is just having fun out there 🔥

🚨 OFFICIAL: Europa League quarter finals are set! 🏆✨ Who’s gonna win it? 👀

Very logical as at that time. OPTA supercomputer predicted Liverpool to win at start of the season because it was logical at that time. Would it predict same at this time? No. Villa had 10 wins in a row. They beat Arsenal and City, they were 3 points off top. I gave them a chance. So, as at that time, it was logical to give them a chance. They’re my team and I back them. You would also back your team wouldn’t you? You have been saying Arsenal will win the league for some years, have they? No. You still back them. Villa winning the league would have been unexpected, you think I didn’t know that, but I wanted a Leicester repeat, I love an underdog story. Even in that tweet you were quoting multiple times, in the comments, I put “hope is free”, but you didn’t quote that one as it didn’t resonate with your agenda innit? Lots of things changed, McGinn out injured all of a sudden, Onana injured, Pau Torres, Mings, and at some point, Lindelof was the one playing, Kamara out of the season, Tielemans injured (this team was built around this midfield trio and imagine all of them being out) , Leon Bailey had to be recalled from loan as nobody was available to play, Watkins in and out injured…I know you wouldn’t consider all of these, but if I search your timeline, I’ll find tweets where you probably have said at some point that, Saliba getting injured didn’t make you win the league or reduced the chances of winning it. So yes, as at that time, I have Villa a chance. Next question ?

These are logical predictions. Very logical predictions. Last season champions, who bolstered their squad by spending another £200-300m. Of course they’re favorites. Man City? Another logical prediction. A team who won 6 in 7, you can’t write them off. So before the season kickstarted, these were very logical predictions, let’s not kill those people who predicted. On the flip side, there is Gary Neville and Roy Keane who have always said Arsenal from the start.



Was it also logical to say Aston Villa will win the premier league like you did in December?
