leon I’m no fan of Arsenal but your hatred of Saka is slightly unhinged. Missing a penalty is not “criminal”

I don't hate Saka, don't think I've ever said that. He's a good little player I think.

I don't think a professional footballer should miss the target from a penalty. That is criminal if your job is a top level footballer.


Salah has done it twice twice in the last 4 league games. and he`s about as top level as it gets.

Criminal

Loafer Lol @ Saka, another crucial missed penalty on his resume there

Criminal and will possibly cost Arsenal the league, Man City aren't dropping points now

Maybe he means missing a payment on a fixed penalty notice. That would be criminal I think.

Not football ones, when I used to coach kids football if one of them missed a penalty they'd be dropped for the next game, builds character and resilience and ensures it didn't happen twice.

Won the league back to back.

I've never missed one out of 14 times, my dad never did and I'll make damn sure my son won't.

Great idea for instilling confidence and reducing the pressure on the penalty taker.

Reckon he'd score a fair few in the Championship next season if they go down.

Not one of them even acknowledged her. And they are putting this out as good fan interaction content?! :?

That makes me quite sad. She is clearly excited to see them, probably had days of looking forward to it, and they all blank her.

That is incredible and unforgivable in my book - I just do not understand how they could NOT even acknowledge her, sums up modern day footballers I suppose.

That actually fcuking annoys me, a lot more than it should I suppose.

I guess it’s not painting the whole ‘moment in time’ situation, and that signing things ‘a hundred times a day’ must get a bit tiresome for the poor loves….but….that poor girl, smiling at each of them, looking for some kind of acknowledgement or interaction from any one of them….which didn’t happen, is saddening.

Been going-on a long time with a lot of our more privileged players…a simple wink, high-five or smile back, might’ve been an effortlessly nice gesture. Memories of England players in a WC not so long back, alighting from their team bus, headphones-in, pouting faces whilst some suckers had camped-out all night to welcome them.

However, Mason Mount take a bow

And yet Jack Grealish gets a lot of stick generally, but in a similar circumstance was fantastic with the young supporter
