I understand how you feel about using the conjunction "but" in the beginning of the sentence.

Actually, I split the sentence because I thought it would make your point clearer. I also used to be advised against the use of But in the beginning. Although, it comfortably serves a rather direct aproach to make your point.

Anyway, in case you are uncomfortable with it, you can always change it with either of the adverbs: nevertheless, moreover, still, anyhow, on the contrary, and so on. Otherwise, I understand why you avoid using it.

That's about it. Feel free post me a link to your next article about Arsenal. :)

My final connections piece is out - I have solved two big questions within the world of wrestling through mathematics: Why landing in the middle of the ring is the safest place, and whether the draft has limitations.
I hope you will find time to read this, as this article is one I am really proud of…
