Good to know. Flowering plants that can be edible or contribute to food, drink, etc go straight to the top of the list!

Just a bunch of dirt at the moment. I'm very proud of it but not much to look at! 😂

I'll definitely put some up once I get stuff in the ground.

Plus tons of perennial herbs for ground cover between the trees and bushes.

I'm guessing it'll generate 300-400+ lbs of food per year once it all hits maturity. Much better than grass that does nothing but have to be mowed all the time!

Finished converting my clay yard into actual dirt after 3 years & getting ready to plant...

Not bad for 1/8 an acre!

it’s mad how misdiagnosed this is. it’s not an issue of a lack of quality; it’s an issue of a surplus of quality. all PL teams are too good, and they are too well coached. it creates tight, cagey games.

good players executing well coached mid blocks and low blocks = find another way = set pieces

It's only regime change if it comes from the Regimechangeistan region, otherwise it's just different people running the country.

Just need 6 wins from these 8 fixtures:
Everton (H)
Bournemouth (H)
Man City (A)
Newcastle (H)
Fulham (H)
West Ham (A)
Burnley (H)
Crystal Palace (A)

Newcastle & City will be the most challenging. Trap games & banana skins in there but the other 6 are all games you'd expect Arsenal to win.

MW 29.5 Update

Arsenal averaging 2.23 pts/game
City: 2.07

This puts Arsenal on track for 85 pts, or 6 wins in final 8 games
City need 26 pts to top this... that's 9 wins from their final 9 games - Their max possible pts is 87.

If Arsenal win 7 of 8, the league title is ours. Simple as that.

We're going to get ad breaks and a TV timeout ref on the field before we get functional VAR.

The average of 3 releases of 2 seconds, 9 seconds, and 10 seconds is still only 7 seconds.

Unfortunately, the only lenses through which potential solution will be viewed is keep referees in power and make revenue #s go up.

I fully expect a "shot clock" for dead balls that'll then get turned into mandatory time so they can work in more ads.

Could not agree with this more. Referees should intervene when delaying restarts is done to kill momentum, delay the other team, and other things that go against the spirit of the game.

Otherwise, they have a watch and we could even get crazy and introduce an official timekeeper role.

It is interesting that all other top clubs take their throw ins much quicker. Emphasizing quicker throws from our players would've been smart months ago since it's largely responsible for this narrative and seems to be effective as well.

It is objectively funny that the Brighton game was the most time we've taken to restart play this season.

But that includes 12 goal kicks, 14 fouls, 3 corners, & 24 throw ins - all those being instances where Brighton gave us the ball.

It's also the lowest avg time to restart play on this chart.

and SEVEN SECONDS MORE PER CORNER. How have we gotten away with these atrocities for so long?

Oh no. Arsenal take an average of FOUR SECONDS MORE PER THROW IN than Brighton. Better make up some new rules to stop us.

Data is beautiful

You've got me nervous now!

I feel like VDV is a ringleader in a very toxic team. He has publicly ignored Frank & Tudor and tries to be the hero too often. I wouldn't touch him or Romero with a 10' pole or let them anywhere near our club.

Igor Tudor has been manager for 2 Scaramuccis but can he make it a full Liz Truss?

Fair. He does seem pretty decent and hasn't been there for too long yet. Might be able to fix him.

The cameramen in the Toilet Bowl Arena are doing the lord's work right now

Funny thing is, I can't think of a single Spurs player I'd want Arsenal to buy in their summer fire sale

Where's the "all of the above" option

They look absolutely toasted and Tudor doesn't seem like the type to inspire anyone to do much of anything, let alone get this toxic team to turn things around.

And now they'll be without Van De Ven for that match

These tech issues with refs are getting ridiculous. That being said, please make this game last as long as possible. 😂

2 for 2 so far... Barring a miracle, I can't honestly can't see them getting more than 7 points from here on out

But Arsenal are ruining the Premier League

What an incredible 24 hours this has been. Could be legendary.
