Well @jonmackenzie.bsky.social talking about the old gods being dead while the new ones struggle to be born in the context of Arsenal’s set piece strategy is extremely my shit

You might have seen Jon got caught up in A Discourse over on the other site, after daring to suggest that the rise of set pieces as the primary method of attack for some of football's best teams might not be great for the game.
Naturally, we got him on with our set piece nerd to talk about it 👇

The metaphor at the end of this piece is perfect for how it feels to watch Arsenal right now.
Easy to complain about it not being very fun to watch Arsenal atm, but every dull set piece win is another step towards the goal of a title. It might not be pretty, but if we get there, we won't care

Also very funny that they had a whole international break to fire him and implement a new manager and instead they thought “I’ll give him one more chance against Chelsea”

uhhh is it too late to un-give up on Martinelli?
There's a point in this pod where it is very funny that it was recorded before Bilbao and released after.

I won’t have any complaints about the creativity in the second half btw, City quite literally played 7 or 8 behind the ball all half.
Guys we don’t need to make the eval of this half about Arsenal not “creating enough,” there are two teams playing

This is what @eulenberg.bsky.social watches instead of football these days and you know what? Fair enough
Japan has a wrestling camp for kids where at the end they have a show match in front of their parents to show off what they learned.
