A slight bit of scorn.

Another good one Dave.
You're right about the last bit.
Do we actually exist out there in Super Six land?
Its almost like if they don't talk about us , we'll just go away.

Arteta complaining again about too many games in a piecevin today's Graun.

Said some of his players have played "more than 150 games in 2 seasons..."

Absolute bollocks.

I checked on club appearances for  2023-24 and 2024-25

Declan Rice 103
William Saliba 101
Martinelli 95
Bukayo Saka  94

Watkins 107
McGinn 102
Konsa  100
Dibu  100
Digne 91

He really does struggle with reality.

Perhaps he needs help?

[German James]

I don't mind Arsenal. I mean, in as much as any other teams interest me in any way.

If you add in international appearances and include games played this season. 150 isn’t too risible.  Declan Rice for example has played 125 games for Arsenal since August 2023 and 29 times for England.

I actually saw a Villa fan vid of him interviewing one of the guys from Arsenal TV just after the match. He was actually very good natured and gracious

Everything Arteta has never been, and never will be

Same here. They’re the least unlikeable as a club (I’m ignoring personalities) if it’s between Spurs, Chelsea and West Ham as the main rivals, okay, maybe not West Ham so much. Arsenal have an authenticity about them. I’m no fan of their manufactured anthem or the flag waving among spectators. I noticed that we too are now culpable of the very same, flags that is. I come from a vintage where bringing any pole into the ground was banned as they could become a weapon or more likely…”you could have somebody’s eye out with that.”
Their fans are a completely different kettle of fish though. Do we have obnoxious celeb’ fans, they certainly do. As for AFTV, I only watch it when we beat them and by and large it’s the best entertainment you’ll get after a match. They are knowledgeable though.
