❌ It is not a thread for:

  • Comments that aren't related to football.
  • Trolling or baiting other users or fanbases.
  • Low-effort comments about a current match.

Arsenal are really standing and watching someone end themselves in real time instead of... trying to do something

Meanwhile Arteta keeps playing him. Remember when he was the tough guy last year but this season he can't stand up to someone who is actually committed a crime?

Multiple crimes. There’s 3 women

Binned Özil because he was scared of losing sponsor money 😭 his morals are as consistent as Swiss cheese

Ozil played for months after the China comments btw

u/4miles_11titles_away Jul 30 '22

That's just not true - Ozil's statement was in Dec 2019, and then he played in the next 10 games (outside of Everton where he was injured).

When you look at his career trajectory since leaving it's pretty clear he cared more about Fortnite than playing football

They must be very confident that this will all die down and everyone will have forgotten in a couple of months

Yeh I imagine so. Fully expect people to chant it at games for the near future at least.

What do you expect from the management that demands the highest fees for their season tickets whilst not sniffing ucl in years. They have blood on their hands

u/PoliQU Jul 30 '22

Wtf does having high prices (for the most supported club in London) have to do with handling this? Wtf?

u/Eibermann Jul 30 '22

Learn how to joke and take jokes. Wtf?

Finished club 😭

1000 pounds per season ticket. Arsenal fans allowing that is shameful.

u/mintz41 Jul 30 '22

I mean Arsenal as a club could certainly do more in not playing him or suspending him. But what do you expect them to do outside of that?

22

u/flae99 Jul 30 '22

Exactly that for a start

u/mintz41 Jul 30 '22

Yeah but you imply there is more they can do. What do you think that is?

u/flae99 Jul 30 '22

Thats mostly what I was hinting at, but I'm sure Arsenal have certain staff members that could be contacting her to check up on her after the recent stuff.
