OFFICIAL FOOTY THREAD ⚽️: Rodri wins 2024 Ballon d’Or

[rolaholic]

Gunners getting smashed, scoreline has been kind tbf

 

[Belgium]

Arsenal's gonna need to show what their mentality is made of
City came out not just to win but to humiliate and demoralize them

 

[moiety]

Stonesy

 

[Bosa]

Walp

 

[noskey]

Wtf the screenshot for the decision didn't include when the ball was kicked. Either way **** off Arsenal.

 

[rolaholic]

Getting feisty out there, Gunners know it's all slipping out of their hands after being in the driver's seat since August...

 

[Belgium]

Both should've gotten a yellow imo

 

[rolaholic]

Dias is a pest

 

[noskey]

Wait I know what's going on. Arsenal can't blow a 2-0 lead if they never go up 2 to nil. Today *we* become the team that comes back from being down 2

Jk i can't even watch anymore

 

[Bantz Lord T]

I can't say I'm surprised. The writing has been on the wall. Congrats on another title City.

 

[Armada]

KDB and Haaland were running all over them we could’ve had 4. Great first half

 

[fluid hips]

When is Arsenal going to learn?

 

[rolaholic]

Feels like a lifetime ago when they were 8 points clear in the table on even matches played

[jape]

maybe this is just a a case of arsenal over-performing early on the szn. when i look at this squad, it doesn’t look impressive.

how many world class players do they actually have?

 

[Gex the Damaja]

I think this is what I was getting out when I asked is this Arsenal team built to last. I really never expected them to win the league based on the team quality.

 

[rolaholic]

Are Odegaard and them built for a comeback 2-0 down at the Etihad?

We'll see...

Spoiler

 

[aepps20]

If Arsenal didn’t have those two regrettable draws (Liverpool was one for sure) in the last three weeks things are different. They wet the bed. City is better than them but they left the door open.

Yep. Over the course of 38 matches, quality and depth tends to win out. Arsenal was punching above its weight and this is the correction.

 

[AZwildcats]

Haaland could have 3-4 already

Edit: KDB

 

[Sinner]

Haaland to KDB again... sheesh.

 

[Belgium]

Lets gooooooo
Haland evolved into assisting KDB now…

We’re all ******

 

[noskey]

So disgustingly lazy in the midfield. Holy ****.

 

[rolaholic]

Yikes

Absolutely getting cut apart

 

[rolaholic]

Gunner midfield which has been their strength all season long has imploded something nasty at the worst possible time
