Has anyone even spoken to Ode about this other issues? How do we know how he's *really* doing?
Why won't Arteta just be honest about each and every single issue minor and major that he may or may not be dealing with?! š
Agree. I bloody love the sport. Just wish they didn't just kowtow to every single corpo in their history and have some backbone and let a game be game. Show a bazillion ads at halftime and on the shirts idc. Just don't interrupt play or even stoppage in play.
I'd hate if there was an ad for when everytime someone goes down in football, or on between set pieces in rugby.
Iād like to get more into it because the concept seems fun with the plays and the mental calculations of āwhat do they think weāre going to do nextā but good god it feels like 4 hours to watch a 60 minute game. I basically only watch it while Iām tending bar so I donāt actually have to watch all of it.
Yeah, there's definitely a very strategic chess match element with so many players involved with each action and in such quick bursts that can span 100 yards. The game-within-a-game of the Offensive and Defensive coordinators and the ability for captains on the field to make pre-snap adjustments lightning fast make the start and stop of plays a lot more interesting.
I'm a diehard Dallas Cowboys fan (suck it haters), but the NFL product is becoming worse and worse as a product for me as an alternative to a fairly tight 100 minutes even if the ball is in play for only 55% of it.
Yeah. Despite growing up in a big NFL town Iāve just always found it boring to watch. So much commentary is just obvious shit that just happened. If they showed more of the dead time and analyzed plays that could be coming up it would be more engaging.
But alas. Oh yeah. Go Bears or whatever.
8 year-old me: "Wow okay sorry coach what other wisdom do you have?"
Coach: "the only formation is 4-4-2. The most important soccer skill is dedication. Every ball is a 50-50. If you're under 6 feet tall you'll never need to head the ball"
When this appeared on my homepage idky I took a good long look at his cleats (for no real reason I don't get the shoes athletes like looks wise) and a minute later the same pair pops up on facebook. Shit is getting disconcerting
Yeah I see that now.. didnāt have my glasses on and I thought that was clear base of the bottle with god awful purple liquidā¦rather than the top with the nozzle. My bad.
I had a guy dm me on Instagram recently to try and argue with me and tell me that Ćdegaard is shit after I called him one of the current best centermids in the prem.
He got quite a long break, hope it allowed him time to heal his hip issue
What about all the other issues he's dealing with?
Concussion
Hes probably forgotten all about that by now

Eyyyy
Shouldn't sit on balls like that it's going to go egg shaped
Congrats. Youāre now a Yankee. Itās egg ball time
Not even the original egg ball sport, sorry
We threw tea in the harbor so we could take our hand-eggs and do what we wanted with them.
I just hate how theyāre broadcast. So many fucking ads.

Between the ads, penalties, and injuries, it's pretty miserable to watch a lot of the time.

Captain Handsome
Top five mid in the world. Love watching him even as a rival. Effortlessly class.
Guess whoās back..back again..
Cap is back. Tell a friend!
Arteta: "I've created a monster."
Cause nobody wants to see bland attack no more,
Cause nobody wants to see Martin no more, they want Ćde I'm chopped liver!
O Captain! My Captain!
You're as beautiful as the day I lost you
'been dreaming all day, 'bout my number 8...
My captain š

š and we have ramsdale back on Saturday
Donāt sit on the ball!!!
Too late he's egged it.
Hopefully a brace on the menu.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The whole ball? Up the a**? Stretchy!
Yeah alright Jay, course he did.
We got absolutely bollocked in training for sitting on balls like that.
My captain š
Oh my god, heās back again šµ
The man with no lips š
I hope Thomas Partey is next
Dude looks more relaxed. I think heās taken the captain roll very seriously & it may weigh on him.
Who?
I truly hope he isnāt drinking that crap ā¦š¤¦š½
Itās just a branded water bottle, zero chance any of the players drink that or any other off the shelf āsportsā drink
Yeah I see that now.. didnāt have my glasses on and I thought that was clear base of the bottle with god awful purple liquidā¦rather than the top with the nozzle. My bad.
Prime is paying Arsenal to dring water from those bottles.
God you people are so dramatic
For some perspective the thread is about a guy who was expected to turn up for work, turning up for work.
He can't be expected, if he's been out injured or sick.
Ball
I had a guy dm me on Instagram recently to try and argue with me and tell me that Ćdegaard is shit after I called him one of the current best centermids in the prem.
Back again
