"Arsenal fans have this skewed opinion. When they win, it's like the last week-and-a-half, two weeks, three weeks, months never happened. An Arsenal fan will go like, 'Wednesday never happened'. You know when they were all melting down and like, 'If we lose to Spurs, the season's gone and Arteta's got to go.'"
Troy Deeney, a retired striker, publicly criticized Arsenal supporters, describing them as having a 'moronic' fanbase with selective memory. His frustration stems from observing that Arsenal fans quickly forget disappointing results, such as dropping points against Wolves, once the team achieves a positive outcome like defeating Tottenham. Deeney expressed these views on 'The Football Exchange' podcast, comparing Arsenal fans' behavior to his young son forgetting an annoyance moments after it occurs. He highlighted the contradiction in fan sentiment, noting how supporters shift from declaring the season over after a loss to celebrating as if previous weeks never happened. This ongoing feud between Deeney and Arsenal supporters reflects his broader criticism of the fanbase's inconsistent perspective on their team's performance.
