You mean the 80's. You probably could've got genuine Levi's in the 90's if you could afford them. Anyway, what's wrong with Levi's?

Yeah, I'm black and have white friends. None of them would call me nigga. That shït just isn't normal.
That's true. If anyone was going to say it, I'd have expected it to be Bellerin.
Yeah, if he did say it that’s unacceptable. Don’t think Welbeck would be cool with it either, so I’m giving Monreal the benefit of doubt.

I'm hoping it's either not what he really said or there is some sort of inside joke between the two of them. And if it's the latter he still shouldn't be yelling it out like that.
I hold Nacho in very high regard, just below the likes of Henry and Giroud so desperate for an explanation here.

I think this is like the Suarez incident a big misunderstanding
'Is the word “negro” the same in Spanish as it is in English?
No, absolutely not.
Am I a racist?
No, absolutely not.'
~Suarez
As Monreal is Spanish I think he said in a friendly way as the word means something very different in Spanish then it does in English it doesn't really have any negative association.
'negro and negra are commonly used to refer to partners, close friends[21] or people in general, independent of skin color.'
That's assuming he said Negro and it was just misheard as the words are similar.

I think it was still the case in the early 90s. I remember reading about it as a child. There's nothing wrong with Levi's at all. I'm just saying that they have a certain fondness for things whose best periods are behind them.

I agree with some of the sentiment on here; winning the EL is definitely worth more than top 4, especially for us because of our lack of European pedigree.
If we win it all, we'll remember this trophy. Top 4 on the other hand would quickly be forgotten about.

Just saw the game. Some unnecessarily nerve wracking moments. I was struck by how much Özil avoids heading balls. Welbeck and Elneny put in a shift and we’re rewarded. As a team, I think we put ourselves in danger when we’d sat back too much. Press this CSKA team a little more, and we would’ve had an easier game. There was a point in the second half when Elneny was sitting back so deep he was virtually a CB. That allowed CSKA more space in the middle. I liked Golovin too. Iwobi’s miss was criminal. All in all, we came back from two goals down, and that’s should help our confidence, given our recent positive results.
Wellbeck scored a normal goal.... that's actually surprising

No I'm serious, I don't think Monreal would ever say anything to cause offence to his own teammate he seems like a chill bloke.
Country: Australia
Don't think he called him that , you don't just randomly say that . Would have been a reaction from Welbeck .

He has a point. Another relatively recent unusual linguistic fad in Spain is the comandeering of the word "gorda" (feminine for fat) in an affectionate sense when it is traditionally derogatory.Pull the other one

Stupid discussion. You can’t hear what he says, sounds just as much like arriba arriba to me.

Elneny was comfortably our best player on the night, followed by Danny and Aaron. He did the defending, the running and the pressing for two players, and was only guilty of a single mistake.
Jack was atrocious and needs to shipped. Iwobi should've taken his place far earlier, even though he's not good enough either. Özil and Laca lacked energy and drive, then they also lost their focus and desire as the game went on. They were shocking towards the end.
Mustafi, surprisingly, put on a decent performance, while Bellerin wasn't absolutely naive defensively which is encouraging.

It's an non issue for me. It's debatable whether it was said or not because of the sound quality, Spanish or English, what did he actually say etc.
But.
You never know the situation between friends and the context. Monreal could barely speak English that long ago. It's not something he's just going to say randomly. For all we know, Welbeck could have taught him the phrase for a joke and they say it to each other all the time. In that case, Welbeck wouldn't react negatively or have any issue with it because he's the one that taught him it.

If Welbeck isn't fussed then neither am I as Danny was the person it was aimed at. I highly doubt it is anything more than a little bit of banter between mates. Probably not even that

Look at those passing stats from our defenders ffs no wonder why we're always under pressure. Disgusting.
