<p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Tony Doe delivers the post-Villa therapy we all need after that gut-punch 2-1 loss.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">One bad night doesn't collapse the project. The media and AFTV want meltdown clicks, we're not giving it to them.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">The real issue? Sometimes it's us: the overreactions, the toxicity, the instant player-binning. A major trophy will quiet most of it, but perspective has to start now.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Ødegaard isn't prime De Bruyne and never will be. The captain still owes us big moments, and that 15-goal version is in there.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Lukas Podolski still bleeds Arsenal and says "something big can happen this season" under Mikel Arteta. When a World Cup winner talks like that, you listen.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Arsenal Women showed the men how: grit, depth, and Olivia Smith running the show for Player of the Match.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Tony's wife is now more invested than he is, and the kids have "North London is calling" on repeat.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">One loss. Champions League next. Reset, refocus, we move.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Come on, you Gunners!</span></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
