Ty is the most deluded football fan of any club that I've ever seen.

Milan are playing Arsenal in the Europa league.

Imagine the meltdown on Arsenal Fan TV if Milan eliminates them.

Imagine the meltdown on here if Arsenal eliminate AC Milan.

And you all must watch this:

Atletico has sold both Carrasco and Gaitan to China

Makes sense for Atletico to get that money but surprised Carrasco agreed to it.

Espanyol has just beaten Real Madrid (no Modrić, Kroos or Christina, but still...).

Milan just beat Roma 2:0. Unbeaten in 2018 in all competitions, 12 games altogether, 8 in the league. 7 points behind 4th placed Inter before the game against them next week.

Lazio beaten and Milan is through to the Coppa Italia final vs. Juve in May. Also no goals conceded in the whole competition so far (not counting penalty shootouts). And Chiellini is suspended for the final

At this point, Arsenal is just sad. Unless you're Robbie from AFTV, he's probably close to buying a house made of gold.

 

[Dr. Eddies Wingman]

If Wenger doesn't quit (or get fired) after this season, I don't understand a thing. OK, Al-City are good, but Arsenal are really, really bad. They are now 10 points behind Spurs, and more or less out of the race for top 4 with 10 games to go. They depend on both Chelsea and Spurs having a proper collapse.

 

[The Flash]

Don't really give a shit at this point. The Board doesn't, Arsene doesn't, why should I?

Barcelona drew with Las Palmas yesterday with an amazing performance by Paulinho!

Look at those stats. Messi and Ronaldo, move aside, there is a new sheriff in Balon 'd Or town.

 

[The Flash]

He's been surprisingly stellar this season though.

He's been surprisingly stellar this season though.

Yes, until mid January. He is also apparently carrying a small injury and has been playing football for 14 straight months because of the Chinese league.

But I don't understand why he has been fielded yesterday, because he was dog shit. 0 positional awareness (Iniesta had to cover for him in the pivot role sometimes...).

Jose Fonte has joined them at the same club. Together, they had a dream introduction to Chinese football by losing 8-0 to Hulk and Oscar's team

 

[The Flash]

Arsenal down 1-0 to Brighton. Hope they lose 5-0. It's going to have to take something drastic for Arsene to be sacked.

2-0. It's working for you so far.

Fiorentina captain Davide Astori has died in his sleep this night. Heart attack apparently... All Serie A matches postponed today...

Kinda bummed out Milan-Inter won't be played but totally understandable. At least Milan will be rested for Arsenal, I'd be scared if I were them. If the powerhouse that is Brighton is beating them, Suso will tear them a new one.

 

[The Flash]

Look, we have enough quality on the team to handle Milan. We watched Suso when he was 6 years old. But transfer business is tricky, the money coming in has ruined football industry. We had to pay the debt for the stadium. I intend to see out the rest of my contract.

I read that in his voice, good job
