Amazon Prime Video’s All or Nothing: Arsenal is a fraught excursion into the English Premier League
Years ago, I lived in London for a summer. The apartment I shared with another student was in a house that was a bit gloomy, often in shadow. That’s because, close by, was the looming Highbury Stadium, home to Arsenal Football Club. Yep, we are continuing our communal soccer education today.
The backlash, including street demonstrations, was furious. The owners reversed course. Further, England’s defeat at the Euro tournament final in London came when young Arsenal player Bukayo Saka missed England’s final penalty shot. First, he faced vicious racist abuse, then he became a symbol for the forces of anti-racism.
The All or Nothing cameras follow Arsenal’s squad away from the pitch to examine the daily challenges faced by elite athletes throughout a demanding calendar of high-pressure competition.The supporters are disgusted, they boo the players at half time and leave before a match ends. The young players are on edge, unused to the abuse. Arteta, who was captain of Arsenal as a player, becomes reflective, never varying his approach to positive energy. You begin to feel sorry for the man.
