We have come to the final day of the European season. We are already the English Champions and need to beat one of the best teams on the planet today in Budapest in the Champions League final to win something we have never done before in our club history. It’s only the second time ‘ever’ we are playing the finals. The last time we did, our GK was red carded in the 18th minute, we took the lead with 10 men but 2 back to back Barcelona goals in the fourth quarter of the match robbed us of the trophy.
Now, I love a neutral venue, one legged knockout game because it all comes down to who wants it more. PSG, led by Luis Enrique is playing some mind blowing attacking football. Arteta, on the other hand, prefers a controlled, possession based, wait for the moment type, defensive football. Two very different managers and two very different styles of play but I believe, in a game like this, it doesn’t matter.
What matters is who is willing to die and kill on the pitch, and who is better at it.
In the team news, Timber might make it today but I would rather go for Mosquera. He is match fit and can do the job at RB. Dembele is a doubt for PSG so lets just hope he doesn’t make it.
If you ask me, I would go with the same playing XI we did against Burnley bar one change. Raya in the goal, Saliba and Gabriel as CBs, and Calafiori on the left. A midfield of Odegaard, Eze and Rice would be perfect and Saka, Trossard starts on the wings. And, GYOKERES STARTS UP TOP, NOT HAVERTZ.
Havertz header contributed to the title, but lets not get emotional and lets stick to a hungry, physical, clinical striker.

I am excited. The last game of the season for us is the biggest one, and against the best team on the planet. There’s no margin of errors, and chances are that even if you do everything right, it may not be enough. On the other hand, we could neutralise their attacks for 85 minutes, and score off a set piece towards the dying minute. Anything can happen and that’s what makes it the biggest trophy.
Right, that’s me done. See you during the game.
If anyone needed convincing that London could thrive as a diverse city then they should have been in North London today as 1.5 million men , women and children of all different backgrounds came together as one to celebrate Arsenal football club’s superb season.
What a fantastic atmosphere, some can moan and whinge all they want at the manager and players but today showed what the club means to so many different people whether they are black, white , male or female.
Mikel Arteta has done wonders for Arsenal football club, the fan base is divided no more except for one or two uneducated(in the football sense) numpties, you know who you are.
I arrived at London St Pancras today about midday and the underground was closed due to the amount of fans in the area , so myself , my sons and grandson walked up to the angel and the roads and pavements around King’s Cross were absolutely packed solid with Arsenal fans and we were a mile or 2 away from the stadium, there was not a hint of trouble , the joy on everyone’s faces was a sight to behold, I have attended matches and parades before but I can honestly say that I have never seen anything like this before in my life.
Congratulations to Mikel Arteta and the squad , I’m sure that today’s events will spur them on to greater success in the next few seasons.
Superb season?
Are you sure!
Didn’t beat Man City home or away in the league.
Lost to Manchester City in League final.
Lost to PSG in Champions League final in exactly the same gutless and fucking cowardly manner.
Didn’t beat Liverpool home or away.
Lost to Manchester United at home.
Lost to Villa away
Lost to championship Southampton away in FA Cup
Watched negative football most of the season, despite spending a billion but fair fairs beat mostly the cack teams from goal mouth scrambles.
And never had a pen or red card against, which has never happened before.
Emery has had a superb season at Villa by qualifying for the Champions League twice this season and like Palace they won the their European trophies finals.
I wish I had a fuckin loud megaphone , and was more mobile, I would have gone down there today saying.
” Glasner has won more than this cunt in half the fuckin time, so stop acting like fucking lemmings, you plastics”
Fuck knows , whats happened to the fanbase.
Glasner at Palace.
FA Cup
Charity shield
European Conference Trophy
Their first ever trophies in their 100 year plus history, without spunking a billion on overpriced cack and acting like a cunt every fucking week on the touchline.
And he gets Eze to score penalties.
Of course the feral and bottom feeding corrupted media scum wont give him any kudos.
Cunts.
Now it’s crystal clear just how deeply embedded I am within our little Achoo’s brain…I’ve hardly posted a thing since we lost and what I did say was rather respectful, considering our record low possession percentage rate (well at least since 2004), yet he spent considerably more time flailing away at me in his little rant…please make careful note of how this gutless wonder tiptoed around his critique of KP…if you’ve got something to say, say it with your chest you little bitch (but I digress)…the fact remains our style of play was borderline embarassing considering the inherent budget and Arteta’s trash talk following last years home and home versus PSG
I must say it seems a little odd to have a parade on the day following a defeat, but I’m sure it was all part of some half-baked self-absorbed vision board master plan that MA had concocted, which would have seen us with two trophies in hand had we won the day prior..anyhow, there’s little chance that our fake-ass intrepid reporter was at the parade or any match for that matter, as we all know by now Achoo is a fraud…as for Pricksy, who gives a fuck what this muppet says as it’s always going to be a tainted version of reality…so eat shit you dickless know-nothing fucktards
