One day Arsenal will grow wings, but it's looking less and less likely that it'll be this season.
Heading into this campaign, Arsenal fans had every right to feel confident. Sure, they had fallen short for the previous handful of seasons, but with new signings such as Martin Zubimendi and Viktor Gyökeres locked and loaded, something felt different.
It was a relatively slow start to the season, and Liverpool was doing its best to hold onto that Premier League trophy. After a couple of months, though, Liverpool's frailties were exploited, and Arsenal was allowed to climb to the top of the table.
It's a position that the Gunners have maintained, and they are the favorites to win the Premier League. Nevertheless, the cracks are starting to show, and Arsenal fans all over see this downfall soundtracked by Radiohead.
Now is the perfect time for Arsenal fans to get dramatic with Radiohead
On social media, clips are circulating of Arsenal's demise against Man United yesterday. Of all the clips, one band appears to be trending in the choice of backing music, and that band is Radiohead.
In many ways, there is no better song to match the feeling of being an Arsenal fan than Let Down by Radiohead. It hints at helpless optimism, the sense of coming painstakingly close to achieving a goal, and giving it your all despite external forces going against you.
And, as melodramatic and hysterical as it sounds to say that, as a fan of a team at the top of the Premier League, Let Down by Radiohead perfectly describes being an Arsenal fan right now.
If Arsenal finished their dinner and got the job done when they should have in recent matches, they'd have an easy run to the Premier League title. Instead, they now face an edge-of-the-seat battle against a team that has won six of the last eight Premier League seasons.
Man City is the external force working against Arsenal this season, and Arsenal fans are left with the bitter taste of regret. It could have been so much easier walking to the Premier League title, but now they must sprint.
In truth, Arsenal is not playing like a team that deserves to win the Premier League. Their record against the big six is atrocious this season, and just like every season, Arsenal hasn't shown up when it matters the most.
Obviously, it's a different story in the Champions League, but hey, if there's any fanbase that can handle a heart rate spiking title race, it's the Arsenal fanbase.
