I read somewhere today… the only song Arse can’t copy, is..
“Champions of Europe - You’ll never sing that” :0)
The difference i would imagine is that Liverpool has a strong Irish connection (and that links with all of the above).
Arsenal claiming it because Liam Brady played for them probably isn’t enough.

There’s a huge difference though in copying songs from a different country / different sport to copying them from your direct title rival. Could never imagine Liverpool fans singing “glory glory Liverpool” when United where dominating and we were the chasing pack. It’s beyond shameless.

Shushhhhh.
You’re giving them the idea to modify it to:
“Best team in Europe”

They can though.
“Champions of Europe - We’ll never sing that”

Also, we started singing it after Euro '96 when Ireland played at Anfield and the Irish supporters sang it on the Kop

Saka out for 4 weeks according to bbc
You give the average football fan (person) too much credit. I remember Leicester fans chanting ‘Champions of England, you’ll never sing that’ to us not long after they won the League.
Going through life sometimes feels like if it didn’t happen yesterday, the majority of people won’t believe it happened at all

My “PL Predictor” formula has Arsenal winning it by 1 point.
However if we do sign Isak I think that the formula will likely favour us.

Just what they need, another player who can play CB and LB.

I wonder if Arteta looks at his squad and thinks: “What would Pep do?” And then goes on to do it, minus passing the ball around until the opposing team cracks.

It’s an astonishing window from them . If this goes through it will be 7 new senior players, 5 of whom went there with the intention of being a regular and little to nothing raised in sales. And Liverpool are buying the league?

At what point does psr become an issue for them considering how much they spend and how little they bring in player sales?!

They are really going all in, aren’t they? Yeah I’d put them as favourites at the moment.
Its what Califiori was brought in to do.
Assume Zinchenko will be sold for peanuts.
Wouldn’t mind us hijacking this one. Get Flo and Jez on the dog and bone.

I noticed White was unexpectedly absent on the weekend. With his recent struggles and a history of issues with Timber and Califiori as well, I wonder if this move is in response to something new going on with White?
Regardless, I cannot even be mad at it. I am still highly skeptical of Gyokeres and think that has the potential to undermine the rest of the window, but I respect them going for it. They have lost a few players this summer but they were mostly bodies who were not good enough to provide much positive impact on games. So they raised no money from it, but a side expecting to compete needed to replace them. At least in terms of the areas they’ve targeted it has addressed what their weaknesses were. They have gone all in to do that and fair fucks to them.
I think its just an example of how the common narratives are often completely disconnected from what has actually happened. They are currently an Isak sized transfer ahead of us in net spend this summer and seemingly about to blow that gap even wider. Even if land Isak for a record fee and bring in Guehi they are still likely to be ahead of us.

On the BBC live text it said that Mr Here We Go had posted about Spurs going for Hincapie then 50 minutes later that Arsenal were interested - it’s just bullying at this point 
I don’t even get this signing to be honest. Considering they have one striker (especially now Havertz is out) and yet seem to be overstocked in defenders.
I think a few player might have said to Arteta, that if they don’t win the PL this season, they will be ‘Offski’ - Guess the Arse are just stocking up in this window in case that happens
