Well done; nothing else more to say. We're in dreamland if we think you can turn over a 4-0 just like that; pride restored, look forward to more important matters.

What? If van Persie slots that chance (which he does 9 times out of 10) we go to extra time. :confused:

Wenger reveals Ox was ill last night, wasn't sure to start, but called his performance 'outstanding'.

I am Arsenal Till I Die

I cant get over his miss. Fuck 🙁

Hope the chamberlain and walcott injuries arent too serious. Cant afford to lose them at this stage of the season

Milan had an easier chance after that. What can you do.....

I hope Chambo and Theo are fine and really that's all that matters right now.

It was a heart breaker in the end but the first leg was just way too much. Hopefully the players take heart from it and continue the impressive form we're in.

Gurgen

Shame we couldn't do it after that first half, but you can't really ask for more to be fair.

Exactly, the tie was lost in Milan; forget about tonight.

I cant get over Van Persie's chip. I would expect that from a young player but not our captain. A tap in wasnt enough for him in that situation. Thats where our chances were killed.

should have just smashed it home.

Nocerino's miss was easily worse than RVP's since he didn't even have a goalkeeper to beat. Not because of RVP we didn't go through. Even suggesting that is laughable.

This is absurd. We were a whisker away from being 4-0 up and to think we could go through is living in "dreamland"? Give me a break.

Credibility restored. Probably a good thing that we're out, too. We don't have the numbers/quality to compete across both competitions.

flobaba

We had our chances. We didn't take them. They had theirs as well.

But fact is, we left ourselves too much to do from the first leg, which is annoying as fuck.

Great attempt though. Something to be proud of. As fans, we couldn't ask for much more really.

Rohit

There are only positives tonight, first one being, this performance is the exact template for us in the League.

We got tired because we had to keep going after 2-0. We won't need to do that in the League.

All Wenger needs to do is show the boys re-runs of this game and the one against Tottenham from minute 30.

How many times have you seen a 4-0 lead overturned in the champions league then Ron? Enlighten me.

RonBurgundy

Just to be clear, I'm not at all suggesting we lost because off RvP's miss. I'm saying it's ludicrous to suggest we never had a shot at going through when we were that close to being 4-0 up and levelling the tie.

Gazza M

agree with captains sentiments. milan were just as close to nicking one. we made them look pony and restored our rep. we also avoided an inevitable pasting by bartha or real. always disappointed to lose, but it's really not all bad

Rohit

To be 3-0 up at half-time against a Milan side is very commendable in itself. We did three fifths of the job, but we did really well on the night.

Harsh to criticize anyone tonight.

We lost the tie in the first leg.

We won this game 3-0 against a decent Milan side. Proud fan!

Precisely

I am Arsenal Till I Die

The players looked absolutely dejected out there after the final whistle.

They gave it absolutely everything the had today. Not one person i can criticize for a lack of effort or attitude.
