Disappointed to lose like that but unrealistic to think we weren't going to lose games.
Doing very well considering the injuries we've had.

Not counting today, Arsenal have missed an averge of 5 players for every single match this season.
All of those players are key players, too.

Infantino said this isn’t “a normal draw”
That was at least thing said on stage that was true
There were moments that approached propaganda, especially in the highly politicised interpretations to justify Trump’s Peace Prize - a debasing of football

Only Declan Rice (11) made more progressive carries than Ben White (8).
Only Rice and Odegaard made as many progressive passes as White (8).
No one made more tackles, clearances or competed in as many duels (10/16 successful).
Yeah obviously he's quite good at football.

This week, the Gates Foundation predicted 243,000 more children will die in 2025 than 2024, breaking a 35-year streak of child deaths reducing. A primary reason cited was the huge cuts to USAID

Fifa are supposed to serve the voters, the national associations, not the other way around.
How many will speak up about how the World Cup has been used to make highly politicised points, and push specific agendas?
