the best Arsenal in decades yet it's soulless and nobody gives a shit. why is that?
>>
>>158573164
because they play like scumbags. people loved wengers arsenal because they were fun to watch. these guys just foul and dive constantly. its a team built on the 'dark arts'
>>
>>158573185
This is a lie. Arsenal was more or less always the most hated club, always made fun of too. I for reasons I don't know nor remember hated Arsenal.
>>158573164
Rice, Havertz they are the players with most soul. Saka is goofy but a good Christian man o algo

When Real Madrid did it: OH MY LE HECKING KINO TSUUUUUU

Setpiece merchands are usually teams that can't compete and are trying to stay out of the relegation zone. It's the lamest way to play.
Arsenal does it with a much faster squad instead of a bunch of shitters so they can max out their opportunities while still being lame.
Also, no one is excited because Arsenal is the brown man's team.
>>
>>158573164
>>158573185
people only ‘loved’ Wenger’s Arsenal when they were winning nothing. Arsenal nowadays aren’t particularly better or worse when it comes to fbr ‘dark arts’ than any team in the league, if anything they are one of the ‘cleaner’ teams.
>>158573499
wants your excuse for this season now that the set piece goals have basically gone (

Typical Arsenal bandwagoner delusion.
>>
>>158573164
They're the epitome of modern football. Dog shit football, try not to lose football, defence before attack, first and second balls, set pieces, zones, sterile, wrestling, cheating, an edgy manager that looks like something from captain scarlett. The "modern" arsenal fanbase. Playing percentages. Final margins. Analytics.

If this was a wenger team, wenger football, arsenal would be being celebrated right now. But instead nobody can stand them. I don't think even arsenal fans enjoy watching arsenal.

You know its dog shit when people are hoping psg beat arsenal, when psg play better football than arsenal

Arsenal were renowned as a boring shitkicking but successful team long before he turned up
>>
>>158573533
Yeah people hoped PSG would beat Liverpool, Man City etc as well it's not just limited to them
In your tiny shut-in mind it is but in reality it isn't
>>
>>158573164
Arsenal is the only big 6 team doing well and all the other 3rd world customers are impotently raging. I mean Man U is literally about to get relegated and their customers are pissed.
>>
>>158573533
>try not to lose football, defence before attack,

that's literally the opposite of modern football though, where losses seemingly don't count as long as you "play the right way". Arsenal goes against the meta.
>>
>>158573587
>where losses seemingly don't count as long as you "play the right way".
Case in point, Vincent Kompany's Burnley when they had that season in the PL.
>>
The thing about Arsenal is, they no longer try and walk it in
>>
>>158573628
Look at the goal against Liverpool and say that again
>>
>>158573575
Yeah but losing is soul or something and this is very important

Arsenal's domestic fanbase is mostly a mix of black British people and middle-class whites. PSGs fanbase? All Nafri and African.

Do zoomers really not know how thuggish the Wenger teams that actually won anything were
>>
>>158573499
>Setpiece merchands
That's certainly not Arsenal this season.
>>
>>158573691
you write like a loser
>>
>>158573720
Wenger's early teams definitely were, but then the PL was extremely physical too. They were mainly competing against Man Utd, who was pretty thuggish themselves.
>>
>swede STILL having a meltdown
incredible
>>
>>158573164
Of course people give a shit. But the popularity could be higher since Arsenal has haters, and especially because Arsenal does not play attractive football most of the time. Also, modern football and especially the Premier League are so soulless that pretending the club currently sitting on top of the hill has to be „soulful“ and objectively likable is truly ridiculous. Most players today are empty husks, most clubs today work with academy baby data product players who have little individuality, and commerce reigns supreme
Arsenal still are being talked about. Pretending no one cares is stupid
>>
>>158573164
>nobody gives a shit
I'm an Arsenal fan and I care. It's awesome
>>
>>158573185
>people loved wengers arsenal
Kek no they didn't you retarded zoomer. The opposite. During the Wenger years the common refrain was
>they're soft
>need to toughen up
>need to be more solid defensively
And guess what? Exact same bitching from obese armchair analysts like you when they've gone and done exactly what you demented ABA's have been saying for years.
>>158573499
>t. dumbass casual who hasn't watched Arsenal at all this season
How many goals from setpieces this season, retard?
>>158573575
This.
>>158573587
This. Prime example was everyone jizzing themselves over that PSG/Bayern semi last year. It was awful football but try telling that to a brain-rotted Arab teenager who watches "Goals Skills Dribbles" highlight shorts on YT.
>>
>>158574362
>>they're soft
>>need to toughen up
>>need to be more solid defensively
No moron. Wengers 1st/2nd teams were all that. Manchester United still cucked you, Chelsea still cucked you, but that was a strong arsenal side. It was only when he was onto his 3rd side they became a bit soft, because he tried to bring too many young players through at once. Probably because he's the reason you play at the emirates. Wenger paid for the stadium, never forget that. His budget was tight after that. But here is the thing. Fans still appreciated the football wenger played, and arsenal fans still threw him under the bus.

Now captain scarlett has turned arsenal into the club everyone loves to hate. Through a combination of playing like stoke city, tony pulis, but without the honesty, youre cheating bastards on top

I really don’t care. I loved Arsenal though all the Wenger years but he couldn’t get it over the line for over a decade. He had to go. Now we have and the seethe is delicious.
>>
>>158574567
What do you mean he couldnt get it over the line. United and Chelsea were brillaint. You moved into a new stadium. Playing by the rules unlike city. Budget was tight. He went with youth. You treated him disgracefully. Your anger should have been directed at the owners, not wenger.
>>
>>158574584
The goal of a manager is to win not build a stadium.
>>
>>158574605
Thats the most arsenal thing I've heard all day. His transfer budget was impacted by that stadium move, thats the reality.
>>
>>158573164
bc they're fake tough guys
>>
>>158574610
Idek what you’re arguing at this point. MY point was Arsenal were constantly criticized for being soft. That’s a fact. Now they aren’t and you dipshits criticize them for it. Total hypocrisy. Beautiful football at times. Great. But not the point of the game. Getting beat 8-0 by your title rivals is unacceptable.
>>
>>158574668
They werent soft you pleb. They were inconsistent due to the sheer amount of youth players in the squad. Your owners were the problem, stan and his son.

You clearly can't even remember it. You'ew a newfag. Probably only started supporting arsenal about 5 years ago lmao
>>
>>158574679
>They werent soft you pleb
Buddy…yes they were. It wasn’t just inconsistency. It was a decade of going out in the RO16, 4th place finishes, and getting battered by rivals. It was actually very consistent in that way. You’re under 24 years old and a fucktard (just while we’re at it).
>>
>>158574668
>Getting beat 8-0 by your title rivals is unacceptable.
>can't even remember one of most iconic results in PL history
Confirmed newfag
>>
>watch big match featuring Arsenal
>it’s the dullest semen slurper around
And then a few weeks later I make the same mistake as I’m treated to yet another slurper
>>
>>158574707
>ignores the salient points of my argument yet reinforces it by nitpicking
Oh wow they scored 2. I was thinking of the 6-0 loss to chelsea. Another stat that backs up my point. Keep going tho you’re helping my argument.
>>
>>158574703
Listen son, I remember those prime arsenal sides under wenger. You started supporting arsenal 4 years ago.

Arsenal were operating under tight financial constraints because your owners refused to put their hand in their own pocket, stan wouldnt sell his stake, and wenger had to go with youth. At the same time, manchester united, chelsea, real madrid, barcelona, milan, bayern etc were particularly strong sides. Yes there was an extended period without success, but there were reasons for it. It wasnt because you were soft. You were inconsistent and lacking quality, maturity.
>>
>>158574733
>it was budget constraints!
Lot of teams under that that aren’t soft. They were soft.
>>
>>158574729
>Oh wow they scored 2. I was thinking of the 6-0 loss to chelsea.
So you can't even remember the correct result. Again, newfag. An actual fan would remember the correct results in both cases because it would be seared on their brain, such was the level of humiliation.

>>158574733
>It wasnt because you were soft. You were inconsistent and lacking quality, maturity.
Don't forget the infamous "Top 4 is a trophy" quote: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2012/feb/19/arsene-wenger-arsenal-fourth-place

For a manager of Wenger's status and achievements to say that is pathetic.
>>
>>158574767
You’re only reinforcing my argument
>>
>>158574778
I'm not arguing on that point. I'm arguing on the point that you're talking shit because you only started supporting Arsenal post-Wenger.
>>
>>158574803
Okay go ahead. Despite you being wrong on that I really don’t give a fuck and not what I’m trying to argue. Keep seething while your club descends into its banter era. Guessing you’re a mantroony and thus likely brown.
>>
>>158573164
because the players, coach, supporters, owners, everyone associated are major league faggots
>>
>>158573185
>people loved wengers arsenal
They loved it in the same way we love /mug/. If they ever get to the top again, people will remember fondly the Amorim/Carrick good times.
>>
>>158574903
Exactly. The latter-era Wenger revisionism/whitewashing is just nostalgic for rivals because they always beat us back then whereas now they get embarrassed leading to cope, seethe, and dilation.
>>
Arsenal looked a more dangerous team in 2022–23 when they were scoring 3-4 goals every game for a good spell. The current team is more consistent but with a lower ceiling.
>>
>>158573185
No they didn't. They mocked Wenger's team for being incosistent, soft, could win 5-0 against norwich one day, and 1 month later lose 3 games in a row to Crystal Palace, Swansea and Stoke
>>
>>158574725
Arsenal matches are for the true patricians, like 90's Serie A.
>>
>>158573164
People hate them despite not being beautiful or pretty to watch they have found a way to win games. Now that their useless teams are losing against them they can't accept the banter era is over.

These cunts didnt watch Arteta when he was trying to find his niche till he found what suited from free flowing Odegaard find a player football to Kieran Tierney crossing to now 1-0's with Rice, Cala, Gabi and Saliba defending.

The sad reality for these lowlives is that there is no proper way to win matches in football. If you think 1-0 wins bore you there are many other teams to watch. I watch Getafe last season because they were uniquely entertaining doesn't mean I like their style of play but it worked.
>>
>>158574929
Opposition fans treated wenger with more respect than his own. You should be ashamed of that.
>>
>>158573185
playing like scumbags is irrelevant, they just don't have any memorable moments in big games under arteta in europe. their only achievement was to trash real madrid. they didn't do enough to make you want as a neutral to be excited by a match up involving them. it's all about emoshuns.
>>
>>158575354
Wait I thought I didn’t start following Arsenal until after Wenger had left?

The first half, yes.
The rest, Wengerball was fucking catastrophic in terms of results.
Boring or not, outside of his first couple years Arteta has made them super consistent in everything minus domestic cups.
>>

It’s just data optimised football
>>
>>158573164
Everyone give a shit. That’s why you see social media flooded with opposition fans talking about them. Content creators spending their whole days making videos of the win lose or draw. Talk sport and sky sports doing whole segments about them.
Only on here, to my knowledge, do you have some kind of restbite for them where they can talk to eachother without getting abused.
>>
>>158573265
Some scandals during Herbert chapmans days and plus they moved house before which is kinda bad in a sense that people used to support their local teams.
But the modern fans just hated arsene wenger because he looked like a fucking faggot and was French and cringe. On top of that they went invincible.
Nu-fans are all black and plastic so not really worth paying attention too ifqh
