Arsenal fan. Philosophy professor. Sometimes the two things intersect. But mostly these are my unfiltered thoughts about Arsenal that I wouldn’t put my actual name to.

Fabian Hurzeler says he clarified Arsenal criticism in text exchange with Mikel Arteta Hurzeler accused Arsenal of time-wasting tactics that are “not football”.

Sounds like Arteta had a quiet word and Mr Hurtzeler apologised and changed his tune.

It’s for the away fans.

We can go even further and point to the fact that Arsenal remain favourites for the entire competition.

Unclear from my timeline whether Tudor was sacked or not.

Checking in now: we did pretty well for an English team 🤷

Well, I timed that well…

I have to be somewhere that doesn’t have the football, so I’m just going to assume we nick a couple of goals and concede zero shots on target. Night.

It’s not fair; their keeper hasn’t gifted us any open goals.

I think people have forgotten what playing badly actually is, mainly because we haven’t actually been run through, dominated or comfortably beaten all season. This is fine. It’s genuinely impressive that this is our baseline.

Trossard not in the squad?

Remember that Nike cage football on a boat advert from 2002? Countries should boycott the World Cup and just do that instead.

Very strong "saw it in a street market on holiday" vibes.

I love how these guys are always smiling and positive before every game. Like how Aubameyang used to reset after missing a sitter.

If this season doesn’t end with Jamie O’Hara as Spurs manager, then I don’t know what we’re doing.

In their last 26 games, Spurs have won 2 games that weren’t in the Champions League.

The general lack of hyphens here is already understandable.

It's bad, but I'm also surprised that it's only 6 and that its the first time.

They were better off with Martin Jol!

It might be dawning on Spurs that they were better off with Thomas Frank.

Can’t have him and Eze if there’s no Spurs to play next season.
