Je viens de jeter un coup d’œil à l’effectif d’Arsenal


Life time contract and keys to the city for @CallumRobinson7 please, drive.


🚨 EXCL: Dan Thomas has apologised after his controversial comments about Mikel Arteta’s touchline behaviour, where he previously suggested it could make an opposition coach “want to punch him in the face.” Thomas admitted the remark was an “off-hand comment” that came out badly and said he should have expressed himself more carefully. He added that it was never meant to be taken literally and promised to avoid similar language in future, describing it as a “silly” thing to say in hindsight. The comments had sparked heavy backlash online from Arsenal supporters after the initial discussion aired on television following PSG’s win over Bayern Munich. (Metro) #afc

Truly a club built on morals.👏

Marquinhos has started just nine Ligue 1 games this season. He has played a grand total of 90 domestic minutes since the middle of February despite, barring a few weeks in September and October, being broadly fit for the whole campaign. Rather, it is because he has become a European specialist. He has started 14 of Paris Saint-Germain’s 16 Champions League games so far, and all of their last 13. This is extreme load management being put into practice and, in the second leg of the semi-final in Munich, it reaped its rewards. @NickMiller79 on the imperious Brazilian at the heart of PSG ⤵️ 🔗 bit.ly/4tSL5t9

I genuinely didn’t expect so many Arsenal fans to completely unravel over a fairly neutral journalistic observation, although the sheer level of rattled responses, harassment, emotional outrage and even death threats sent into my private messages only reinforced the exact small-club mentality I was referring to in the first place. My duty is not to comfort fanbases or participate in collective delusion, but to uphold research, integrity and objective reporting, even when certain supporters clearly struggle to process it, and while my situation is insignificant compared to journalists operating in genuinely dangerous environments around the world, moments like this still expose the growing hostility media professionals face simply for doing their job, which is why organisations such as the International Federation of Journalists and the IFJ Safety Fund remain important. ifj.org/safety-fund

Thank you for pointing out how much better ours was despite our much worse circumstances
