Rice what a fucking hit, take a bow my man

😭 fucking hell worth every fucking penny this guy

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Had that look in his eyes, my man was either going to score or blow a hole through Courtois' gloves

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

you don't fucking save those

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

You literally can't, unless you're a 10' tall stickbug or you cheat too far to the left

I'm actually surprised Camavinga got punished. Maybe because the match was beyond salvaging.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

It was an incredibly stupid yellow to get

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Saka just did the impossible. Won a free kick off this ref.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Here. We. Fucking. Go.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

DIRECT FREE KICK GANG LET'S GO

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago
[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Speechless. Doing that once is impressive, doing it twice is just unreal

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I can't watch it because I'm at work and need to concentrate. But my mate just let me know about the next two goals!! Holy fucking shit! This is amazing!!!

THREE NIL TO THE ARSENAL!!!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

I had to maintain my composure through an all-hands meeting. LET'S FUCKING GO

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Haha, you deserve a bloody medal for that, mate!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Can't even imagine what would have happened if I'd had to talk, Christ

I had an inkling that Merino would start ahead of Trossard, but this is still hilarious

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Bloody hell 😭😭😭 this is some good news after the whole afternoon of fuckery

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Sorry to hear that, mate. We're here for ya.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

DEEEEEEEECLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Pls we don't need Timber injured again. Or anyone, for that matter.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I think it's inevitable tonight. Ref is letting Madrid get away with murder, and we're going to see numerous publications telling us to stop whining when 's season is over.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Amen to that. They're going to kick us about all night.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

We already knew this ref was a Madridista, but this is ridiculous man. Twice in 10 seconds, right in front of you!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Benny Blanco off to see off Los Blancos

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

one club mentality, we're gonna lose the next leg 2-0 and still go through to the semi lol

MLS: tries to get up but can't because Bellingham wants an autograph
Bellingham: HE TRIED TO KILL ME

What a fucking goal!!!

And all the gooners at the stadium have turned our place into a proper fortress. The noise level is unreal.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

When Saka came on the other day, I heard that they measured the stadium at 103 dB. At that level you can potentially risk hearing loss after 4 minutes of exposure (iirc). Might be even louder today.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Someone's gonna score one today. Not sure if it's us, though.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Jover before kickoff: "Alright boys, gather round. I've been keeping a secret from you for a while and it doesn't feel right to let it go on any longer. ... Free kicks are also set pieces."

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

ANOTHER ONE

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Alright lads, you reckon if we get 5-0 we can play the kids in Madrid?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

ah fuck off they're getting away with everything, we get nothing

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

It was always going to be like this. Imagine how bad it's going to be in Madrid. We might actually see an ankle-breaker. And then the Arsenal player gets a red while being stretchered off.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

NO FUCKING WAY HES DONE IT AGAIN

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

7-1 again, run it back

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Someone's getting their leg broken today.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Camavinga betting with Carlo how many tackles he can get away with unpunished

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Cool beans. "Arsenal can't afford to let Mbappe have a chance". Fam, he was offside. By definition we didn't let him do anything.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Maybe Partey can pull on some old Madrid rivalry and play his pants off

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I don't know if I want Partey having his pants off...

LOL SOMEONE BREATHED ON A MADRID PLAYER

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

I'm furious and not even surprised that we get the first booking of the night.
