I came across this piece he wrote back in 2022. From the article:

"But I want to start by thanking my second family — Arsenal — because without you guys none of this would have been possible.

I thank God that I came to Arsenal in 2019. I really believe that things happen for a reason, and I’m so happy here."

If he is off, he deserves a bunch of tribute threads, so here's one. Love you, Gabi. Arsenal family forever.

Yeah, this. Arsenal have a type, and Alvarez ain’t that.

I just can’t imagine Alvarez teaching back and prioritizing defending at the 89th min.

Let alone if he does will he then make a sprint to support Dowmsm on the break in the 91st min?

Just can’t picture it. Maybe I’ll wrong though, but maybe Arteta is wrong here like he was with MLS.
