Being an Arsenal fan has aroused a lot of times when Michael Jackson could not fathom his song “SPEECHLESS” being played over and over in my room.
Well, let’s wipe our tears, boys; we still have a league to win.
Here are my thoughts, though, on Arsenal losing the Carabao cup final to Manchester City
It's quite an interesting read.

If you are here for soft consolation, this is not that post.

Having a great WordPress site means nothing if nobody finds it on Google. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝟱 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝗘𝗢 𝗯𝗹𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀:
Leaving default permalinks as plain IDs.
Ignoring Image Alt Tags and compression.
Missing XML Sitemaps in Google Search Console.
Having multiple H1 tags per page.
Not setting canonical URLs.

Good list. I'd add a 6th: the "Discourage search engines from indexing this site" box under Settings → Reading. It often stays ticked after a staging launch and adds noindex to every page. Small note on #4: multiple H1s aren't a problem on their own for Google; a clear heading structure matters more.
