Sibierski

Do think this should and will be Miley breakout moment when he stakes a legit claim for LCM spot. Think it’s easily forgotten how good he was last season, for what he came into and produced, in biggest games. If he was a top 6 media club, the narrative would’ve been in overdrive.

How long does the yellow card thing carry for? Because would it be worthwhile playing him for final minute of one of games to get a yellow card so he’s then clear of it for his return?

His performance reminded me of like Casemiro / Varane in the final we lost. Players whose legs have gone, playing poorly, but when it comes to those massive one off games, the experience overrides all those deficiencies. Think if we get Liverpool in final, we will set up and play like we did tonight. If it’s Spurs, it’ll be usual 4-3-3.

LETS BE FUCKING HAVING YS

Schar can shag my Mrs!

Arsenal are like Man City of past and Liverpool, can zip through gears and score 2 goals in a blink, so understandable. Every other side and it’s party atmosphere 2nd half.

Sloppy with ball in that half, but can’t fault the shape, energy and being clinical. Essentially had two chances, scored 2. The subs going to be so huge in 2nd half. Gordon will be fucked soon, so that change will be key. Probably can see Longstaff / Willock on for Gordon / Murphy around 60 mark, then Isak a cone up top as he’s fucked Would like to see Osula if that happens for his raw pace.

We’re so shit with the ball. Going to cost us at some point.

Isak is smashing his big bollcoks about so far.

That’s some rough shit defending.

Their directness is bypassing our midfield, so means they’re picking up easy 2nd ball. That’s what 2 CMs fails to give us.

Quite impressive as well that we have got 5 at the back, and the defence has become even slower than if we played 4

5 at the back Not a fan one bit.

What’s made the back 5 chatter be a thing? Was a proper wild play in first leg, but something we can’t be doing again for more than 20 mins tonight. Keep team same, maybe Longstaff for Joelinton if Joe not 100% fit. One thing I will give Longstaff for a game like this, his connection to the area will get his extra 10% which makes up for his lack of ability.

Many nervous shits today. Hopefully the actual team had 0 and smash the fuck out of tonight. Feels like it’ll be a massive first 60, probably be like 1-1 at best and then it’s shut up shop for final 30.

Why the big clubs keep pushing for more reforms that gives them added protection to get into UCL, because even if they’re shit in the league they can keep the money coming to maintain gap over rest long term. With likes of Man Utd / Milan / Juve currently not looking like qualifying, won’t be surprise if the push for next UCL reform is for clubs who don’t qualify via league/holders, qualify based on historic co-efficient, so those sides are protected to keep getting that UCL money.

Just looks normal.

Monchi and his burning through players. Must waste so much money this clubs on signing on fees / agent fees.

But he was never going to be a first team player. 3rd choice LCB, 3rd choice LB. Not some player with potential, he was what you see, what you get. And that was average at best.

MLS going to be hyped up loads, when Hall has been doing this all season but doesn’t play for the top sides so doesn’t get mentioned.

I really hope we don’t sit back against Man City ffs. Such a weak team these days.

Arsenal have to sign a striker

Give Amorim what he wants.

Like I’d rather lose a top star because a club has paid £100m (or OTT price), then lose one because we’ve made signings and had to accept a shit deal (like the rumoured Gordon nonsense with Gomez).
