There are certainly more interesting matches every round but it still feels like the results don't really matter. Last rounds should be different but I'm firmly in the team meh when we are not participating compared to groups of four teams.

Trump also won.

Feel like this is just way too premature, just a rough patch while missing their best player.

But Havertz is really good?

You didn't believe few days ago.

I look at xG more than most here but find your posts completely unnecessary here. We dropped down a bit after taking the lead and Arsenal had no idea what to do outside set pieces and that one cross to Rice. Very much a match where eye test>xG or stats as they had no idea how to break us down. 0.59 for that header seems way too high in any case.

Their total xG was 0.67 on your graph. Do the math genius.

I have no doubt we could’ve created more xG if it was needed. Dropped back a bit in the second half and it was as comfortable as it has ever been.

Was it fuck? We scored and nullified them completely after that.

Really good, didn’t put a foot wrong all match.

Stunned we could beat Arsenal without Emil Krafth.

Arsenal without Odegaard are really poor. That second half while chasing a goal was diabolical, no idea what to do at all outside the corners.

Longstaff has looked really solid and confident.

Really quiet here by the way after a win compared to the double digit pages after Sunday.

I mean that's right after the bad loss of possession by Isak. Has nothing to do with the midfield setup ffs. Edit. Like Vlad had already commented.

Get in!

I thought he was good although should've done better on the big chance. His touch, ability to carry the ball and shooting are majestic. Certainly has been a wasted career so far but I still love to watch him play as a neutral.

Yeah, I never understood the 'we were awful' narrative about Sunday. They had their chances today but still feel like we deserved to win this more than they deserved on Sunday although I'm hardly neutral.

Wouldn’t mind one of the bigger teams left at home. Rather face Liverpool or Arsenal now at home than in the final.

The one Kelly blocked was a good chance and then the Felix miss. Can’t remember much else from second half?

Thought it was a very professional performance. Pressed high early and got couple of goals. Chelsea had few dangerous counters mostly from us stupidly losing possession. Dropped back and it was quite comfortable despite Chelsea having couple of decent chances. Some really good individual performances (Krafth, Tonali, Joelinton etc.) and better from Willock and Longstaff. Pope not being able to catch anything is weird and Gordon once again appeared a bit sulky at right and all our good stuff came from the left.

Nah, he was garbage before Eddie and absolutely pointless signing. Glad it’s not true anymore though.

I was confidently placing him in my worst ever NUFC eleven before Howe.

I have no idea how he looks this good now on very limited minutes.
