This celebration police nonsense is really irritating me and it’s only applied to Arsenal. Our fans were dragged to an 9pm kick-off midweek. We’ve embarrassed Chelsea and now we are not allowed to enjoy it. Ofcourse, it doesn’t mean we have won the title, ofcourse there are more games to play but the fundamental point of the sport is for enjoyment. Only one team wins the title each year so enjoy the good moments when they come along.

💯 agree. It seems this only applies to Arsenal and Arteta. I saw the Luton manager run down tbe touchline after a last minute win against Forest for example and was praised for his passion yet Artera does the same thing and he is over celebrating and being disrespectful to opposing managers. I think people don't like the fact that Arteta has made us a serious force and can't be bantered so they find something else to try and irritate our fan base. Ridiculous.

The irony to me is Adam’s little dig at over celebrating came after the other two blokes explained perfectly why the Arsenal fans were in a celebratory mood. Listening is a skill, Adam, but you couldn’t help yourself… Richard Keys would be proud of you!
I don’t care if Arsenal are solid mid-table, I’m celebrating beating the money-doped chavs 5-0 😅 🎉 The whole away section will be doing the Macarena on Sunday if Arsenal get 3 points.
Rule no. 1 of football - never rely on Spurs.

I think arsenal will probably draw one of these last 4 matches. Either on Sunday at spurs or at old trafford. I can’t see city dropping points. I’m an arsenal fan so of course I hope we can win out but I just don’t think it’ll happen. Next season we win the league if we add some key components. If partey had been healthy most of the year like he was last season, we could’ve won the title imo. Need him healthy or a comparable replacement for him and another cb and winger/striker for rotation.
Beating Chelsea 5-0 doesn’t count for anything 🤣🤣 give it a rest sunshine.. city didn’t beat Chelsea over 2 games in the PL & went into the fixture 8 games unbeaten.. statement victory!
I thought Spurs were in the title race?

they love hyping spurs even though they haven't been as good as villa. its astounding the spurs emphasis meanwhile villa could possibly secure top 4 and a european cup. With how much the media talks about spurs you'd think they have been amazing all season, but they have been rather average since about mid november. and if all their competitors were fit and west ham moved on from david moyes then how good they are relative to the league would be in question... are they fully fit better than a fully fit newcaste? aston villa? are they that much better than chelsea?

they are always like this. they spoke about spurs mostly and they generally have a weird arsenal bias. its almost as if they are in disbelief that arsenal is a top side in europe that generally dominates games and has in general gotten better over the course of the season. They really think the spurs bench will come on in the last 20 minutes and make a difference even though spurs may lack some match sharpness as they haven't played a competitive game in 2 weeks and are missing some key players through injury... meanwhile the arsenal players are returning from injury and finding some sharpness in players like partey, tomiyasu etc. it could be a battering and that shouldnt be too surprising given the circumstances surrounding the 2 teams.
Great show
This will only ever work one way You will never see can arsenal stop spurs title charge 😂
Nearly a hipster glasses clean sweep.
Adam ..one of the good channels to know about the strengths and weaknesses of my team.. especially the young analysts are good. Jay and Charlie are not brilliant enough they are emotional I don't know if they are biased by their clubs. Tim and others are good. Don't be judgemental explain based on facts. Anyways Good.
You boys want Tottenham to win this soooo bad don’t you !? 😂

It would be their biggest achievement for about 20 years.

Wrong. They halt themselves all the time.
These journos: I think City will drop points and there's going to be twists and turns to this seasons. Also, these journos: City win comfortably this weekend. hahaha come on lads
Id favor Arsenal just, although can easily see a 2 2 draw. Think a red card is on the cards. Havertz or Bentancur.
As a Gooner, we don't hate Chelsea, we always had some sort of mutual respect toward them: We even traded many players with them, Gallas, Cech, Willian, Luis, Fabregas, ... and Chelsea dislike Spurs more than Arsenal! Never traded with them, except Pachettino!
No amount of wishful thinking will help Spurzy today. COYGs
This is clearly a Spurzy podcast channel 😅😅😅😅
No
I hear them... but Dragusin was literally about to be snatched by Bayern, Liverpool had enquired about Van De Ven and Newcastle wanted Maddison though??
These are all pointless discussions: win, lose or whatever, City won’t drop a point till the end.
No.. no they couldn't 😅
Nope.
Jay needs some garbage glasses.
