We haven’t competed in it for ages. It’s been refreshing to go into Europa league games knowing we have a chance of not only winning the game but also the whole competition, as opposed to the CL games where we pick off the shit teams in the group stages and wait to get thrashed by the big teams at the business end.

What has he won them and look at his record in up finals too.

I have to say I wouldn’t be that fussed if Liverpool won it either. I find their fans funny rather than annoying on social media and the ones I know irl are decent. I’m glad City are not winning it, the hyperbole over how good they are would have gone into overdrive.

United and Tottenham would be the two to induce vomit.

Yep. The Europa league is to us gooners what the championship is to Aston Villa fans.

Who do you want to win the fa cup tie between them?

Neither.

United - don’t want spurs to win anything

Fuck no. I don't give a fuck really about what most fans say but the disgusting frothing at the mouth from ex-Liverpool pundits is nauseating. I have to say though generally whatever shit outcome it would eventually be none of them are nearly as irritating as they used to be

We all know the Europa League is the watered down version of the CL though. Yes we might seem to be doing well in it but it's just not as satisfying as doing it at CL level.

I'm just a very jealous fan tonight. We should be doing what the likes of Liverpool are doing right now. They were languishing in 6th/7th a couple of years ago ffs and look where they are now. 

Wenger has really fucked us.

I wonder if this Roma result is, finally, a turning point to a long decline of the Messi era at Barcelona.

Yay?

It will be Roma v Liverpool in the semis. 

Roma will win that tie though. They're the better team even if Salah plays for Liverpool now. Nainggolan will be back in match shape too.

Dzeko was absolutely unplayable.

Yeah, great player. He's been playing the best football of his career at Roma in the last two years.

city have kind of skated by with me in recent years, because they generally play good football. but fuck them and their petro-dollars. i'm glad they got exposed

Whenever I see upsets like this, Roma, Liverpool...I think about how many times we played Bayern and Barca. Not once did we get past them, you would think that in 8 ties like that, we would make it past them at least once...but no, the law of average dose not apply to us. Just shows you how past it Wenger is. Can't make it in the Champions League with a team that has no tactics...

Came on to write the exact same thing. Was watching Pool and Roma last night and thinking wow - we have more expensive squads than these guys but would have no hope of ever going against these big teams over two legs and overwhelming them as we saw last night. 

And if Kroenke was an actual football fan, he'd see this and end this nightmare.
