    Mikel has a level of class that Haaland could never dream of having.

    We’ve shown unreciprocated respect to City as rivals over this past couple of seasons but once again their players have shown themselves to be salty, arrogant fucks.

      From what I can gather, City feel that they wouldn’t be under investigation if not for us.

        They’re probably right, though. Who else is seriously impacted (competitively) at the moment? Liverpool maybe, but they must realize that we eclipsed them last season and Slot will take some time to get them playing his way.

          I get ya, but there wouldn’t be anything to investigate if they weren’t cheating in the first place.

            Course not. It’s not our fault that they’re cheating, but it certainly seems like we’ve been beating a drum to the FA for the last three years.

    Definitely no irony in a man born into high level football and now backed by infinite oil money saying “stay humble” to a team of 10 men he just scraped a draw against.

      A man born into high level football, but whom has somehow failed to learn anything about the game other than the 12 yard box, whose entire family was paid with oil money to play for human rights abusers, who turns into a massive crybaby the minute he doesn’t score a hat trick because IT’S HIS BIRTHDAY.

      Fuck, he’s the Dudley Dursley of football.

        I mean, you can eat the rivalry and all… but if Arteta pulled a Sol Campbell style coup and managed to sign Haaland in January, we’d all be frothing at the seams.

    I wonder if this oversized clown realizes what he’s done. Now every time he misses a sitter, get injured, or his joke of a club gets punished for their cheating in any way, he’s going to get flooded with a deluge of sarcastic “stay humble” responses online from Arsenal fans (and almost certainly Man United fans too).
