It's a good time to be an Arsenal supporter. The Gunners are clinching silverware, the Champions League is heating up, and the long-suffering fans who spent years getting clowned on are finally cashing in their misery chips. Zimbo, one of the loudest Arsenal voices in the Barstool ecosystem, has been riding this wave at full volume all weekend.
A victory lap for the fanbase as Arsenal stack wins down the stretch.
The best fanbase in the world man! No one deserves this more than Arsenal fans and our players. They deserve all the love. 2 more games we gotta win! Come on Arsenal!!! ⚪️🔴⚪️🔴⚪️🔴
Part of the joy of finally winning is getting to do something Arsenal fans haven't really gotten to do in the modern era: talk noise. And the chosen target right now is Eberechi Eze, the Crystal Palace man who's spent the season as a thorn in Arsenal's side and an internet villain in Zimbo's mentions. The trolling has hit a level where Zimbo is publicly demanding the slander continue at full intensity.
The mission statement, in Zimbo's own words: Eze must be cooked proper proper.
What makes this run hit different for Zimbo is the full circle of it. He's not pretending he was always a believer. He publicly flipped on Arteta at some point, wanted him gone, and now he's eating the crow on main and loving every bite of it. That's the kind of fan honesty you only get when a team finally rewards a decade of suffering.
An on-record mea culpa for ever doubting Mikel Arteta.
Arteta deserves this! Ive said things about Arteta. 🙋🏿♂️🙋🏿♂️🙋🏿♂️ I’ll be the first to man up and say that I lost patience with Mikel and at some point wanted him sacked. I was very wrong and I’ve never been happier being wrong about someone.
Now the stakes get real. The league is essentially banked, there's still PSG looming in the Champions League, and the Eze discourse is going to follow Arsenal into every fixture left. Zimbo isn't relenting and frankly, why would he? When your team is winning and the rival is a meme, you keep stoking the fire until somebody makes you stop.
The bigger picture: a clinched league, rested legs, and a Champions League run still on the table.
Thanks Bournemouth Not only did this allow Arsenal to clinch the Premiership It allows Arsenal to rest and focus on PSG and the Champions League
Two more games. Eze in the crosshairs. Proper proper, indeed.
