    I’m watching the embargoed section of Arteta’s prematch presser and they are still going on and on about his Newcastle comments. That was 3 weeks ago. When he shut the reporter down on that, then it morphed into “images of confrontation” with refs and trying to link that with violence against refs down the leagues.

    This weird obsession with Arteta’s “behavior” and all the fucking moralizing is soooo tiresome. It took until nearly 8 minutes before there was a question about Brentford. Total length of presser: 8:44.

      The reason is simple they are terrified of Arteta he is what they won’t be handsome, successful top manager Spanish which is why English media are always obsessed with mocking him it comes from their insecurities IMO

      Clive said it best in the AV podcast. Arteta and Arsenal have been elected as the bad guys in this ‘good vs. evil’ narrative that the media is cooking about refereeing in the game.
