City winning forces far less introspection, they have a much smaller media/social media representation and inspire far fewer feelings of jealousy/resentment than those other teams do. Which realistically is what fuels a lot/most of the anti-Arsenal sentiment.

The idea that the pro-City sentiment is something new or comes from a widespread purists' resistance to Arsenal's style of play rather than being driven by not liking a big club which has a big fanbase and media representation feels like a stretch.

Because most feel very little towards City, whereas teams like Arsenal, United, Liverpool, Chelsea + Spurs all inspire strong feelings from neutrals. And City winning can be dismissed as 'well, they're backed by a nation state etc, they should be winning the title every year.'

Remember when you spat at a kid in “traffic”. Remember when you accused Arteta of shunning Myles and Ethan from the first team changing room when it was actually a safeguarding rule for under 18s. So called “informed” pundit 🚮
Jamie Carragher@Carra23

It’s not bizarre at all, you say ‘rooting’ for City which I totally understand they don’t provoke the same feelings as others, but people aren’t rooting for City, they WANT them to beat Arsenal! That’s the difference. The column looks at why. Thanks for bringing more traffic👍

For someone who seems generally to have his finger on the pulse of fan sentiment, this is a bizarre take from Carragher. Neutrals have been rooting for City over teams they care about for basically the last decade. telegraph.co.uk/football/2026/…

For those who don’t know: Hind Rajab, a 5-year-old Palestinian girl, was trapped in a car during the Gaza conflict. She was killed, and the vehicle she was in was reportedly hit by 300+ bullets. -Hind’s cousin, 15-year-old Layan Hamada, made an urgent call to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS), stating that they were being targeted. A few seconds later, gunshots were heard, and Layan’s screaming abruptly stopped. -Hind was alive, and she stayed on the call with emergency services, pleading for help for hours. -The paramedics sent to rescue her were killed. -The decomposing bodies of Hind, Layan, and their family members were discovered many days later. -Her story became a global symbol of civilian suffering in war. -The Voice of Hind Rajab documents her story. It has been nominated for an Oscar for Best International Feature Film. In India, the Central Board of Film Certification censored the film. The reason cited was that it could affect India–Israel relations. (1)

“It was decided and carried out. They washed her, cut her hair, raped her and killed her” Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion wrote this in his 1949 diary. The story of how 20 Israeli soldiers gang raped a 13 year old Palestinian girl for 3 days, by rota, and then shot her.

Let’s talk reality. A Jewish baby born today in a West Bank community will have full rights in Israel, a vote in national elections, and access to civilian courts; a Palestinian baby born in that same community will have no democratic rights, tight restrictions on their movement, frequent harassment from settlers, and no access to justice beyond what Israel’s unaccountable military courts mete out. That’s apartheid.

When I was in my 20s I wished to deepen my understanding of the Israel-Palestine situation. So I purchased at least a dozen books - mostly semi-obscure, academic, many by dissenting Israeli historians. A day came when I closed a book halfway through, resolved to read no further, even to try to forget all I had learned, and then I donated all the books. It was clear, painfully and miserably clear, that I would be wasting my life trying to understand it more when it was nothing more than this.

On Israeli national television: “Everyone in Gaza must die. They should all be left to starve to death, even children. I don’t care”

Has a single Western media outlet reported that in order to carry out the extra judicial killing of Ali Larijani, Israel murdered an additional 100 civilians? Were those 100 people not on the West's liberation list?

Settlers reportedly tied up his arms and legs, cut off his underwear, zip-tied his penis, then paraded him around his family while beating him. Corroborated by multiple witnesses.

Israeli settlers have increasingly used violence against Palestinians in a bid to drive them from their homes in the occupied West Bank. But sexual assault appears to be a new weapon in these settlers’ arsenal of intimidation, pointing to a troubling new level of violence. cnn.it/4du8vj6

A group of Israeli soldiers filmed themselves looting homes in Lebanon – like they did in Gaza. Israel’s assault on Lebanon has forcibly displaced over 1 million Lebanese people in less than 3 weeks.

@Advitiya2907 @Matt_Law_DT Counting the fucking conference league and a preseason friendly to talk to your daddies who you haven’t beaten this decade, who routinely trounce you, after you’ve been humiliated 8-2 is absolutely a choice and shows you the level of you and your club hahaha Pathetic. 😂

This seemed to wind a lot of people up last week. I stand by it. There was a banner in the Matthew Harding stand displayed before kick-off last night that displayed all of Chelsea’s trophies. And slap bang in the middle of it - much bigger than all the others - was the Club World Cup. It was good at the time but nobody outside Chelsea rates it. Forget about it, move on and concentrate on winning a trophy that will really send a statement.
Matt Law@Matt_Law_DT

The first change Chelsea should make for next season is to remove the Club World Cup winners’ badge from their shirts. That would be a start to crushing a culture of arrogance #cfc telegraph.co.uk/football/2026/…

Enzo Fernandez squares up anytime he sees ex Chelsea players (even the ones that stayed during hard times) regardless of the reason they left and getting called proper chels only for him to be unsure of his future after going through little hard time. I love this game.
