Look at the post # and timestamps. If anything it probably is the Super Ignore script. Oh well.

Can't wait to see how our new signings fare.
Think I'm going to get a Can jersey.

Dortmund also beefed up and got enough good players.
Reus,Gündogan,Kuba and Subotic are as good as back.

If the Emirates Cup does then yeah.

yeah it's probably clashing. The super ignore is removing posts and the live thread script is trying to put them back (it's grabbing the page in the background without any extensions modifying it so those posts exist). If you disable super ignore it seems to work fine

He isn't good enough for United but that doesn't mean he is bad.
5-10th is right around his level.

You are settling for the community shield bro. Show some ambition
While the two smaller ships of Brenton and Arsene fire their cannons at each other Pellegrini and Jose sit in their massive fuck off yachts laughing and drinking some bubbly
We actually beat good teams though innit.
Roma, Madrid and Liverpool.
Nobody stops the Gaalacticos.
Firstly, finishing in the same league position is (partially) tied to the fitness issues which are being addressed by the club. Whether it happens, who knows. But something is being done. Podolski, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Ozil, Wilshere, Walcott, Ramsey and many more were all out for long periods of the season. Any club would struggle with that. And despite that, we finished on a higher points total than the previous season with only 7 points being between us and the top.
You have cherry picked the criteria which suits your argument and simply ignored the changes in the club over the last season. That have, for me, indicated another phase in the club's history. Some issues still exist, like the mental fragility you mentioned, but the club has undeniably come on leaps and bounds since the 2012/13 season. And even then, the squad displayed great fortitude to clinch fourth place on the last day of the season.
Simply saying "lololol fourth place Arsenal" is quite reductive and ignorant of the overall situation.
Is this Wilbur?
Sal said we won two trophies. Which we did.
...not sure where you are getting a lack of ambition from.
Chiriches or Dawson will be your new CB.
A new era? We'll have to see about that
You've spent some Puma dough which you haven't done for a few years granted, let's see in May whether it works out before we start talking a new phase
Potential is there but don't be counting chickens which have barely even hatched
FA Cup? More like Fucking....Arse Cup
lolz premfaces lolz bantz

Now we just have to distinguish between meaningful and shitty trophies. Like winning the CL and winning the FA Cup.

We even beat the Emirates Cup winners too in the last friendly.

No :lol. I just don't think it's really worth classifying it as a trophy because it's basically a pre season friendly
Would you really say van Gaal has won a trophy already? Same thing really. Two trophies in a few months like Salva said is misleading I think really
...
nobody mentioned anything about how we will do this season.
The discussion centered entirely around signing players.
Last season we didn't spend Puma dough.
Misleading who?
relax. it's banter m8.
Well, we did see in May when we won the FA Cup.
Pointless argument, anyway. "New era," "new dawn" is obviously interpreted differently by different people.

I predict arsenal will finish fourth
Pls.
There are enough micky mouse pre-season cups that no one gives a shit about.
Community Shield is certainly part of it.
Really rockin' the boat there.
Already accepting United will finish fifth?

This page is hilarious
Just bantz innit, who gives a shit

Not really.
Different trophies exist in different brackets, sure, like the CoC and the Champions League. But at the end of the day, they still "count."

Reus to Atletico is fake right?

IIRC, they broke the Thiago to Bayern transfer last year when it looked like Utd were gonna get him

Please no.
Its only done when he's holding their shirt in a press conference. Highly doubt he moves.
Imagine he actually moves to A.Madrid. So many bigger clubs would have missed out on the signing of the summer.
There were rumours that Dortmund may sell to A.Madrid so he doesn't go to Bayern but I think it's just twitter BS.
If they hire Gandalf, maybe.

Doesn't really matter if they're reliable or not tbh.
Gandalf would be a nightmare signing, nobody would be able to pass.
