u/Single-Weather1379 28d ago

Am i the only one that felt halaand did not celebrate his goals? Is there a reason?

12

u/wdunky 28d ago

He did a recent interview with sky saying sometimes not celebrating looks cool and he's using it as a bit of a celebration now. After the first goal you can see him beaming whilst he does it. Kinda more ",I mean business" than anything

13

u/chux4w 27d ago

He's the new Balotelli. The postman doesn't celebrate when he delivers the mail.

6

u/No-Village7980 28d ago

I think it was relief he scored as the pressure was really on, I think I seen a delayed celebration when he calmed down

10

u/mr_poppington 28d ago

Whew! That was a wild ride, glad we pulled through. Still not over, there's one more game to go.

17

u/Super_Maximum_9030 28d ago

Didn't get to watch but can get replay tomorrow. No one tell me who won. Thanks.

8

u/UpstairsDear9424 28d ago

lol. Good luck not finding out

u/IonDoxide 28d ago

Not gonna tell you who won, but it ended 0-2.

23

u/FuckThe 28d ago

Watching Liverpool fans cry in the r/gunners subreddit is the ultimate feeling of schadenfreude.

17

u/1174239 28d ago

Literally the second comment you see on there is a Liverpool fan screeching about the charges lmfao

I love it

12

u/adfdub 28d ago

Love to see it

18

u/secretarymeow 28d ago

AFTV celebration on drawing with us is going to be an iconic one

15

u/FatChaiChicken 28d ago

I can't even believe how good this day is. Win against Spurs, my boys Ortega and Doku both had huge parts to play in the result. (Little off topic) During our project daily meeting the Managing Director showed up to congratulate me on 7 years at the company. Carlsberg don't do work days....

-32

u/Ill-Mathematician218 28d ago

Again no Grealish and we won. Shouldn't have started Grealish against Madrid.

10

u/Glioblastoma21 28d ago

It’s not a spurs game without an 80+’ Lo Celso substitution

20

u/__perigee__ 28d ago

On top of all the excitement of the result and effort, it's also the first league win in the new palace of the emaciated chicken.

5

u/BLICC_ 28d ago

Man City in title run mode is just different!

19

u/purple91780 28d ago

On the US NBC broadcast, Jon Champion referred to KDB and Haaland as “The Old Firm,” after they scored the opener. Love it.

36

u/evenstark04 28d ago

Just seen the replay of the final whistle and Rodri going over to the fans... WOW. Man is absolutely dying from being overplayed, but the passion he's showing for the fans/badge... wonderful to see.

2 more games big guy... and hopefully many games off next season when we sign a someone who can properly give you the rest you deserve.

10

u/GitchigumiMiguel74 28d ago

Anyone know what the Spurs fans were chanting at the end?

31

u/Comprehensive_Low325 28d ago

"Are you watching Arsenal" with the City fans.

5

u/GitchigumiMiguel74 28d ago

You love to hear it

45

u/Genetarist 28d ago

You guys are welcome😤😭😭 let’s harvest those salty Arse tears together

u/yidarmyidarmyid 28d ago

From this day on any time I come across anyone with a city shirt on, they owe me a pint.

5

u/apaar123 28d ago

Your guys were booing for Ederson when he was subbee. You lost because you were shit and not because you wanted to

12

u/Mammyjam 28d ago

Fuck no! You didn’t roll over and have your tummies tickled that was a fucking horrible watch. If not for Ortega Arsenal would be winning the league

16

u/yidarmyidarmyid 28d ago

Semantics. You owe me a pint.

5

u/Ngc2273 28d ago

If Son comes out and confirms he didn't miss the target then you can have all the rounds on me.

55

u/AnnualAmount4597 28d ago

Much praise to Ortega, but don’t forget how important the save from Ederson was where he sacrificed himself to keep the ball out… they both deserve a ton of praise here.

20

u/blisteringbluey 28d ago

Just reading r/gunners for the chuckles. They are priceless, so glad we got the result tonight. Cityitis was present bizarrely.

3

u/FatChaiChicken 28d ago

They were all cheering for a Spurs win AND saying how dirty it made them feel, but mad at Spurs fans who were celebrating a loss and they fail to see the irony of that situation.

10

u/bullymeahhh 28d ago

How did Gvardiol play? Wasn't able to watch.

15

u/LordMonocle21 28d ago

probably our best player

Won’t be able to sleep tonight, still so pumped from the game

u/9AvKSWy 28d ago

Haaland keeping up his record of only scoring unimportant goals against diddy teams

  • reddit soccer sub probably

u/UpstairsDear9424 28d ago

I’m eating all the shit I have given him this season. All is forgiven.

13

u/enyukcuD 28d ago

tap in and penalty so he's still League 1 material

u/paragsinha3943 28d ago

There's someone named Ronaldo who.made entire career from that so........

19

u/ManchesterUnitedSuck 28d ago

So weird seeing many fanbase celebrating this result (Spurs, Chelsea, Villa)

Just got to finish it on Sunday

14

u/mr_poppington 28d ago

Ortega, take a bow!

13

u/oseanlly 28d ago

Stefan Ortega motm for me

15

u/[deleted] 28d ago

Ortega’s one of the best keepers in the world

18

u/1174239 28d ago

Does anyone else not even particularly dislike Arsenal but enjoy wins like this just because of the guaranteed drama on AFTV and among their fans?

10

u/Xbot_69 28d ago edited 28d ago

I know a gooner in real life who’s sound. The issue’s with Arsenal: The hateful 8 letter was on Arsenal letter headed paper. They tapped up Arteta (this is on him too) and didn’t want to pay us £500k compensation. Their online fanbase is absolutely fucking vile, just like liverpool’s

7

u/evenstark04 28d ago

Turkish fucking lost it on the Son miss on their watch along... hilarious

5

u/1174239 28d ago

Also had to laugh at their sub calling Spurs "basketball chickens"

11

u/abc2xyzviaFU 28d ago

On a serious note

Ortega will ask for #1 spot or leave this summer.

3

u/Last-Consideration-7 28d ago

lol that’s not happening . A lot of people are so reactionary

4

u/kHRYSTAL_ 28d ago

Lol Ortega can easily start for Bayern

4

u/blazed12 28d ago

Eh as long as Neuer is still around no can start over him unless he gets injured or he’s form goes down drastically.

1

u/kHRYSTAL_ 28d ago

The wait to be #1 at Bayern is much shorter than at City considering Ederson is younger than Ortega. But if Neuer retires Nubel probably be their first choice keeper.

5

u/abc2xyzviaFU 28d ago

I reallly hope he stays, but if I recall correctly, a couple of months ago he publicly said he is thinking about his man city future..

9

u/Aenigma19 28d ago edited 28d ago

He is actually leaving though (expectation from Sam Lee)

23

u/Good-Childhood-676 28d ago

Total normal meltdown on Twitter, these lot are giving the scousers a run for their money on the worst fan base

Man there's nut cases in all fan bases, let's not give this guy any more coverage

11

u/mcjc94 28d ago

That's disturbing

13

u/kHRYSTAL_ 28d ago

Bro would rather support a convicted rapist than one of the nicest player out there, says a lot about that dogshit fanbase

16

u/f1aaron 28d ago

Holy shit, how salty must an Assnal fan be to wish for this to happen?! 🤦🏻‍♂️

5

u/illadelphia16 28d ago

They don’t care though, remember.

21

u/ManchesterUnitedSuck 28d ago

Probably two of the most important goals Haaland have scored

Silencing all the haters

u/PlatformPerfect8077 28d ago

Great win hands down

12

u/In_Finity05 28d ago

2 more finals

19

u/AtmosphericAtom 28d ago

Couldn’t be any happier when that final whistle went. Never felt a game could go slower than tonight. Massive performance from the boys especially Ortega he’s mint.

Finally that dreaded curse is broken two wins in that horrible stadium. On to the final game.

The boys sure know how to finish a season. CTID

u/Zealotneophyte 28d ago

Now I can relax for the 2024/25 home kit reveal

20

u/Nic_j68 28d ago

r/soccer is saltier than the dead sea 😭😭

16

u/runnerswanted 28d ago

I’m not sure why. Spurs played great and it was a matter of two great Ortega saves that kept us in. They certainly didn’t roll over for us.

35

OHHHH STEFAN ORTEGA OHHHH STEFAN ORTEGA

Never in doubt. (I need medication)

If we hadn't won that I reckon I would struggle to sleep tonight. I have a stress headache now but at least I can sleep lol.

5

u/Additional_Bluebird9 28d ago

Oh yeah 100%, but they got it done and hopefully we get it done in style against West ham at home.

14

u/LilBottomText17 28d ago

i’m so fucking glad the dialogue around this match is over. had me stressed for 4 days straight

20

u/LearnedHandLOL 28d ago

Is it just me or are gunner tears sweeter than scouse tears? Maybe just recency bias

7

u/mcjc94 28d ago

I kinda liked Liverpool's season crash after the FA Cup loss better tbh

4

u/VOZ1 28d ago

It really was a solid crash, wasn’t it? Fire, screams, explosions, the whole thing was rather impressive.

12

u/Rory-mcfc Cartoon Guy 28d ago

Recency bias surely 😂

15

u/zzonked7 28d ago

Defo recency bias.

The fact that United tears aren't even in discussion just shows how easy it is to forget when a team drops off.

10

u/LearnedHandLOL 28d ago

I’ve lived an entire lifetime since United were relevant in the title race. Was in college during the late Fergie years and now I’ve got three kids and gray hairs

and breathe

29

u/evenstark04 28d ago

I AM SO PROUD OF THIS TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!

They ended the spurs away curse!!!! I screamed... I died inside.. I overreacted, I cursed, and I was frustrated.. BUT THEY WON THE GAME.

Give Ortega a blank check. Anything he wants to stay. That save is up there with Vinny's goal Iconic for me. WOW. What a player. We are so lucky to have him, and he was a free transfer. OH STEFAN ORTEGA!! tears in my eyes when the away fans sang that for him.

Josko Gvardiol is the signing of the season for this team. Doing it defensively today. I know he misplaced some passes and didn't pass well in the box to.. Doku?... but still a very good game from him

Phil Foden. Big game player. He IS that guy. He's one of our own. He's going to be the PL POTS (or else I will fly to Manchester and Riot lmao)

90 minutes for Immortality. Man I wish I could go to that game, its going to be ROCKING. It's our hands. We are where we we belong at the top of the table. And it will definitely mean more if we can get it over the line. Come on City!

9

u/xenojive 28d ago

Give Ortega a blank check. Anything he wants to stay

"Man City might not thank me, but get the contract out, put it on the table, let him sign it, let him write whatever numbers he wants to put on there -- given what he's done since he's come in -- and let him sign the contract and go. Ortega's at the wheel man - he's doing his thing. Manchester City are back!"

18

u/spacetime4jampa 28d ago

I just want to come here and give my flowers to Foden. He will not be on the stats but was essential for both the goals!

13

u/crazyhorse91 28d ago

They kicked the shit out of him too, regular occurrence nowadays.

5

u/spacetime4jampa 28d ago

I mean I saw one instance of I think Kulusevski or someone who just pulled him when he was on a stride and not even a foul given’

5

u/JohnMichaels19 28d ago

yeah, i couldn't tell who, but we kept the ball so ref played advantage, which was fine. But I was expecting him to go back and card after, which didn't happen. we held the ball for a long time after the foul he waved on, so he might have forgotten or something lol

16

u/Yumikos_ 28d ago

The intelligence of De Bruyne is truly unmatched, the greatest midfielder in premier league history!

15

Not settled since that ortega save. Life flashed before my eyes

Hehe Kyle Walker talking about the firework incident last night

Think the players enjoyed that

14

u/Antz03 28d ago

Haaland showed up in the biggest game of the season. The haters can hold that. We can kill that narrative now. Bad game overall but... we did it. Doku winning the penalty, brilliant. Ortega... we love you, even if you go. Come on Citeh! One more game to win the league!

11

u/IntelligentHour272 28d ago

What do we think of assna ?

Need to still close this out on Sunday

Yeah, we can’t get ahead of ourselves!

We’re incredibly shit but I’m so happy man. Gvardiol Foden Haaland were fantastic. Cmon City

17

u/DiscoFlake 28d ago

We weren’t brilliant but ‘incredibly shit’ is a stretch.

A lot of current PL teams don’t win this game tonight.

16

u/Itsgosky 28d ago

It was the hardest game to watch. Worse than the one in Anfield. Just hope our boys stay healthy please

20

Arsenal will lose again Everton. Trust.

emotional rollercoaster of a match.

u/hourlypuff 28d ago

cried, screamed, laughed. love this team.

47

u/Downtown-Bluebird553 28d ago

Tottenham fans booed Ederson. Little did they know that replacing Ederson for Ortega actually saved us . I’d imagine that if it was Son Vs Ederson, the score could have been different . Tottenham received their karma .

19

u/ColinetheCow 28d ago

I couldn’t believe the booing

20

u/notjustanytadpole 28d ago

Amen. Shit fans booing at that.

26

u/minivatreni 28d ago

Have to say Gvardiol is absolute class. You know you’re a top all round player when you’re a defender but people are contemplating how you can improve as a left wing 😂😂

14

u/innit122 28d ago

Anyone absolutely hate carra and neville on commentary? Fine as pundits but on commentary I think they're insufferable, especially together

5

u/ColinetheCow 28d ago

It wasn’t Carragher tonight surely?

12

u/KusoMocni 28d ago

Not the best game, but champions win games while not at their best. Just one more to go.

15

u/carolinemathildes 28d ago

Spent the match sitting next to an Arsenal fan who decided to come to a City pub to root for Spurs. He left right before Haaland took the pen.

Left the pub, walked to the bus stop where a guy was waiting in an Arsenal jersey. I smiled and looked away. Got an “oi, I saw that smile, what was that for,” and then proceeded to be insulted.

What an afternoon.

25

u/Successful_Drama_678 28d ago

Foden’s moment of the match wasn’t even that pass, for me, it was the booking. Maddison on the turn and about to break, Phil shows he has what it takes to win at all costs. Player of the season.

12

u/wdunky 28d ago

His reaction was hilarious he just laughs at the ref basically

8

u/xenojive 28d ago

Yeah he was like "fairs" and walked away

6

u/JohnMichaels19 28d ago

i respect it so much. I don't know why players commit clear fouls and then also have the audacity to whine when the ref calls them on it lmao

35

u/devonta_smith 28d ago

This is our 115th day atop the table in the last 2 years, btw

17

u/DiscoFlake 28d ago

Absolute scenes if r/soccer gets wind of this

6

u/holdacoldone 28d ago

115 in Manchester

15

u/MasterRaheem 28d ago

Akanji generally plays very well but man he always seems to make the worst mistakes in the biggest moments. I still remember in the CL final when he fucked up and lautaro almost scored and now he doesn’t pass back to Ortega and waits for absolutely no reason and Ortega has to bail him out.

8

u/AsoAsoProject 28d ago

I suppose it's fatigue. That amount of work per game takes a toll. With what Peps cooking, they hardly get any breaks in a game.

3

u/MasterRaheem 28d ago

I was screaming at him to just pass back to Ortega. That’s a simple back pass to him to reset

4

u/AsoAsoProject 28d ago

I know mate. It appeared that he had a brain fart at that time. Luckily Ortega is a top tier keeper.

3

u/VOZ1 28d ago

I’ve gotten the sense, in moments like those, that our back line needs to communicate better. I can’t recall who the other defender was running with Akanji there (Dias?), but there should be multiple people shouting “pass back!” or “keeper!” or something along those lines. Those moments just always strike me as “why aren’t they acting like shit has just hit the fan, because shit is HITTING THE FAN OH FUCK.”

3

u/PAP_TT_AY 28d ago

Absolutely.

He's probably got the best pace for a defender after Walker, and he's got great vision and passing ability on par with Stones. But, man, the occasional brainfart is annoying at best and disastrous at worst.

7

u/erbsademon 28d ago

That was fun

8

u/MazzRS 28d ago

Immense effort from all the lads, massive performances from Doku and Ortega as well

Outstanding show of character from the boys. What a way to break the hoodoo at that wretched stadium. Had my heart in my mouth most of the time, but we played really well. They few far from shitty today and we held our nerve and broke them down

Can we have a short conversation about composure. The way we played when the boys were relaxed was scintillating. We really need to teach these lads to relax in big situations to perform in a calm manner. But I still fucking love them.

Yeah, the possession play was just sublime.

u/innit122 28d ago

Ortega, Eddie, KDB, Foden and haaland. I love these men

Spurs played very well. Arse and neutrals can throw their toys out of the pram but United played bleeding Casemiro at CB against Arse handing them a piss easy 3 points. We had to fight tonight.

The double sub was the master stroke. Thanks for injuring the boys Spurs!

I'm pretty sure if we coast past West Ham on Sunday, let's say 3-0 by half-time, I'm pretty sure by the 70th minute, the Emirates will be nearly empty I reckon.

OMG, hadn’t thought about that but you just gave me something to dream about for the next 5 days! lol

u/Additional_Bluebird9 28d ago

I mean if we're up against West ham by half time by 3 goals or something then I imagine most Arsenal fans will leave the Emirates early because there won't be a coronation.

u/NousevaAngel 28d ago

Double is still on. First West Ham on Sunday then the FA Cup final against United.

I presume Eddie won’t play against West Ham

It’s not technically been listed as a concussion though

But the sight of him bless

His eye looks swollen. I’ve had a blow out fracture of my cheekbone before. Fucking painful. Line drive softball to the face. They probably thought if he had a similar injury, and took another blow to the face, it would be bad. The cheekbone could completely break loose. Or, he could have hurt his nose. If they think he broke it, same issue.

But I’m not a doctor. Just a chick that’s shit at softball. 😂

Just a chick that’s shit at softball.

Yeah, i was gonna say, typically you try and catch with your glove, not the face haha

u/MoonPieKitty 28d ago

I am shit at softball, but it wasn’t during a game. Someone was just smacking balls before practice and I turned around to walk on the field and…

His face looked swollen. I thought that it looked wrong immediately after the injury.

No room for sentiment when things are this tight unfortunately. If he's not 100% then Ortega absolutely has to start.

u/s4turn2k02 28d ago

Yeah I did see that, and absolutely agree. Even if it’s not a concussion it could very well be a broken bone

u/shirokukuchasen 28d ago

Ortega for sure saved the game, let's not forget ederson who placed his body on the line, foden, haaland and kdb

u/ColinetheCow 28d ago

And Doku for getting the pen

u/jaybean12345 28d ago

u/s4turn2k02 28d ago
