Emmanuel Petit on Premier League clubs mocking Arsenal after the final defeat: 🗣️ “I have to say, I found it embarrassing. The second Arsenal lost, some Premier League clubs couldn't wait to jump on social media and remind everyone about their European trophies. That tells you everything. Instead of supporting an English club representing the league on the biggest stage in club football, they were busy celebrating Arsenal's pain. For me, that's not rivalry. That's insecurity. Arsenal were 90 minutes away from doing something special, and rather than show respect, people were desperately searching through the history books for old trophies to post online. Why? Because they were terrified of seeing Arsenal join that club. Let's be honest, some of these clubs spent the entire season watching Arsenal compete at a level they couldn't reach. The jealousy was obvious. The moment Arsenal fell short, they treated it like they had won something themselves. That's the mentality of people who would rather see Arsenal fail than focus on their own success. The trophy may have slipped away, but the reaction from some rivals showed exactly how much Arsenal still live rent-free in their heads.”

IT’S REAL. 😭🏆

I swear imma make It and when I do, they're gunna show this tweet lol

A few words on City… formidable opponent. Years of tormenting us, and even though it’s more on us that they were in this race so long, we couldn’t quite shake them Bernardo, Rodri, Haaland… talked some real shit, but that’s a rivalry, and at least they went and did the business. Some of the best to grace the PL. Respect, beating them this way is unbelievable, it feels so earned Cherki… baller, but you did some bullshit. Doku speaking way too soon too. If they had been any Arsenal player I’d rip em. I think when it came down to it, City were the ones who lacked bottle. Acted weird all season & threw away good leads to shit teams When it was really crunch time, it was ARSENAL who locked in. Premier League Champions ❤️🏆

Arsenal: 2025/26 Premier League champions.

I can’t explain this feeling ❤️

This belongs to all of us.

The foul on David Raya was obvious & is nothing like some of the goals Arsenal have scored from corners! Arsenal were pulled up three years ago at Leicester for holding the goalkeepers arm!! #MNF #WHUARS ⚽️📊

My son just said “My ADHD is so severe, it’s AD4K”

I take a draw before the game Don’t fall for what could have been. Huge week

@YrkshireFinest @DougieCritchley Literally this

@DougieCritchley I suspect the quality is so good bcos both teams rest players all season round because they play in a farmer's league

Not bad for two representatives of farmers leagues eh Premier League fans?!

Max Dowman. The youngest ever goalscorer in the Premier League.

How that’s not a penalty on Kai Havertz I’ll never know…

Arsenal must be the only club in football that’s been criticised for 15 years for not being able to win ugly or deliver when it matters, and then when they actually do grind out results in a title race, they get attacked for that too. It’s a no-win narrative, and that kind of inconsistency is what’s killing the game.

The problem with @KemiBadenoch proposal to cut Plan 2 loans interest rates is it is too late for most. While I've long campaigned against above inflation interest rates on student loans, so much interest has already been added to people's accounts that cutting it now, while psychologically appealing, won't reduce by a penny the amount lower and middle earning graduates repay. While it would be nice to do, assuming they're not planning to spend unlimited funds, or say reduce the actual debt owed, in my view a far better use of the same funds would be to massively increase the repayment threshold (the opposite of what @RachelReevesMP is doing with the disgraceful and damaging freezing of the threshold). Plan 2 loans were always set up so that most would not repay in full over the 30 years before it wipes. For them it works like a hefty 9% additional tax above the repayment threshold (though psychologically it's a nightmare for many to see the interest grow and grow even if they won't pay it). The only people who would financially benefit from lowering interest rates to inflation at this point, would be those who earn enough to clear what they owe in the 30 years before the debt wipes. Currently that's predicted to be only the highest earning (or lowest borrowing) 20% to 30% of graduates, but with lower interest maybe it'd be 30% or 40%. For the rest, the bulk of lower and middle earning graduates, lowering interest rates won't help. They'll still repay the same for the next 30 years. Yet if you used the same money to increase the threshold so repayments were say 9% of everything above £40,000 (and index link that) rather than the current £28,400. Graduates would have up to £1,000/yr more disposable income each year. Plus this way many of those who didn't get a graduate premium (ie financially benefitted from their degrees) wouldnt be paying.
