🏆 Arsenal vs Bayern, Tuesday, 8pm

Burnwinter

Madrid are 2–1 up on City as well now

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Bring Jesus on. Martinelli won't get any change in this game. Save him for the away leg.

Think we'll need Trossard's iciness as well.

daredevil

FEBravo

Should have started ahead of Martinelli.

Clrnc

Kiwior is so bad this half. Reminds me of Gibbs vs Monaco

HomeSteak

The crowd has been shit as well. Look at that from Saka and Haverz, absymal

USArsenal

I think Tomi is gonna have to come on after the half. Kiwior is gonna struggle the rest of the game with Sane.

Qwiss

USArsenal yeah Kiwiors got to go off. I like the guy but he's looked terrible against Porto too. Think the occasion is too big for him.

Qwiss

Forgot how much I despise Harry Kane. One of the biggest cheats around, plays for the foul 90% of the time.

Mirth

daredevil not really the point is it. We’ve faced some good attacks in the league - trying to pretend we haven’t is absurd

daredevil

Mirth

We have of course, but none as good as this one, which you seem to agree with.

Don Pacifico

Kiwior at LB can't work in a high intensity, end-to-game. Hasn't got the mobility needed.

IBL

Might see Kiwi off for Tomi

MistaT

We’re barely considering our left wing (Martinelli). Not sure if that’s to keep the ball away from Sane, but it’s odd.

est

MistaT It's because Kiwior's useless going forward so it leaves Martinelli 1 vs 2.

flobaba

Qwiss not the occasion. The pace of Sane. He simply can't keep up. Should've held him once he got turned but for some reason allowed it to become a footrace which put pressure on the whole team falling back until Saliba succumbed and fouled Sane.

Clrnc

Qwiss he's just not a LB. We all praised him for being adequate but when I look back at all the matches he played well he hasn't faced a proper winger.

est

daredevil We also haven't been as shit. We've conceded two goals from players running in a straight line from pretty much the halfway line. Almost three.

The problem is absolutely not Bayern being too good. We're just shitting the bed here. Need to get a grip and play our game.

Big Willie

On the plus side, at least the forum seems to be holding up.

Panda

We do have a lot of inexperience in this competition. I think it's showing a bit with how over eager we are and less assured than in the league. Hopefully they can work through it.

I'd take a draw right now.

CPM

Panda Agree the inexperience is showing, but we can still put two or three past these in the second half. Need to settle down and make some adjustments.

RocktheCasbah

Arsenal + Europe = Shotgun + Foot.

Same as it ever was.

Don Pacifico

RocktheCasbah was hoping Arteta could channel the spirit of George Graham.

Glass half-full - still got 135 minutes to sort this out!

Burnwinter

CPM We can still win this first leg, come on boys.

Absolutely we can … we created the chances then made the mistakes. Similar performance second half but with our heads screwed on, this ends 3–2 or 4–2. They haven't looked like being able to sit and absorb pressure indefinitely

Pepe LeFrits

Agree, Bayern haven't looked comfortable at all, we should be able to score more.

Pepe LeFrits

I'd get Jesus on and drop Havertz deeper.

flobaba

What an absolute shite half of football.

Kiwior off for Tomiyasu or Zinchenko.

Some tactical adjustments needed as well to free up Odegaard. I'd also bring on Jesus for Martinelli to give us a bit of trickery/skill. Right now we are playing such a predictable and nuliifiable game, and they are less likely to make an unforced error, or leave space in behind to exploit now they have their noses in front.
