🏆 Arsenal vs Bayern, Tuesday, 8pm

Thought Saka had made the foul too much from the replays we got initially but just seen a different one at the end there and it looks a penalty to me.

Think we've blown this tbh. Can see us shitting the bed over there in the second leg.

Clrnc

Liverpool got the exact same penalty and not a single soul at the weekend said Elliott kicked AWB

Qwiss

Anyone saying that's not a penalty is absolutely clueless.

Mirth

Qwiss it's like you don't see that given every other weekend.

Except when it's against us it's all 'well ackshually.....

TambourineMan

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert Villa play Leverkusen on Thursday night so they'll be just as jaded, if not more jaded than us on Sunday.

Claudius

Nervy first half. But we settled in the second half. Good reaction from the team and the manager.

Result not surprising. Bayern team is filled with elite players. When Musiala, Sane and Gnabry attack, it’s a lot to handle.

Pepe LeFrits

Pepe LeFrits first time I've ever liked my own post. I stand by it

Not a great night but we've much chance of winning in Munich as we do at home tbh

IBL

Those saying it's not a pen look at the side angle where you see Nueuers extend his leg out when Saka moves the ball past him.

So what? Neuer stuck his leg out on his path to impede him. It’s a classic case of winning warranted pen.

The only thing id say is our guys need lessons on how to go down, because there’s no need for him to make it so obvious.

Saka really didn't sell it well, bless him. It could've been made to look like the relatively clear cut situation it was. But I'm not going to criticise him for being a bit shit at diving.

Qwiss

That would've been varred in the PL too. Officiating in the CL is somehow worse than the PL

Gunner89

I thought the performance was quite poor

They hit the bar too

Ref was absolute dogshit and hopefully someone does a number on him but the errors were just awful

The irritating thing is the referee - Atrocious

Mirth

Gunner89 Performance was ok - we had some good moments and in terms of ability and tactics we had the edge. Inexperienced cost us

Burnwinter

It was, and we were a bit lucky that wasn't a goal … though to be fair if it had been any better directed, Raya likely would've stopped it.

When the stats shake out they're going to suggest we'd have had a deserved win if we hadn't gifted them two goals.

Segway

This game was also a reminder that Kane is still one of the dirtiest cheats in football.

Qwiss

Mirth these lads would've told you it was RVPs fault for having his foot high.

QuincyAbeyie

daredevil did you think Liverpool's pen vs United this weekend was wrong as well?

daredevil

QuincyAbeyie

Only saw it once, but that wasn't a pen for me, either. Anytime a player is dragging his leg or throwing his leg off at the opponent to create contact, it looks off and unnatural, even if the contact is coming. Better to get taken out cleanly rather then to embellish the contact.

goon

Anyway, thanks to the shitty away goal rule being scrapped, it’s not a bad result. Staying even in the tie is never a bad result at this stage.

Can’t wait for the second leg. This competition is going to make men out of us.

Jesus was superb after coming on. He’s built for the CL.

CPM

Burnwinter Yeah, if the referee can see you sell the contact by sticking your leg out horizontally from your natural trajectory, it's a lot harder to get the call.

Claudius

Burnwinter he’s paid to be a footballer. Not an actor. The ref and VAR should’ve caught that. Ref probably wanted to go have a cuppa and a shit.

Pepe LeFrits

That game really highlights the importance of sports psychology for me - Bayern showed a bit more in the 2nd half but really they weren't any better than a lot of PL sides we've faced this season - but we were a lot worse. We did a lot of things we'd never do in a league game

goon

Pepe LeFrits

It’s crazy, especially on the big stage. We’ve seen shit the bed repeatedly in the CL for years despite being arguably the best side for a while.

On the plus side, Villa should feel like a low pressure game.

CPM

The referee was pretty good tonight I felt, and if anything came down on our side quite a bit in the first half.

Qwiss

CPM bollox. Aside from the clear fucking us over for the penalty he let Kaimer away with loads. Just before the pen Davies should've been sent off. Kane was constantly fouling and being rewarded with free knowledge cos for it. Ref gave them everything.

Segway

CPM Absolute nonsense.
