Absolutely useless
Tactics This is an ordinary Bayern team, we shouldn’t be going out to them.
Underestimation of Bayern at the Allianz.
Eddie would've scored that
Can play all week and not score
Haven't even really created a chance.
This is a squad building issue. Our midfield is dead, but the players we've chosen as their competition aren't trusted to do anything about it.
QuincyAbeyie it's also a philosophy issue. artetas teams are bereft of individual inspiration, its all collective perspiration. and they cannot chase leads or generate momentum once the tide turns
They’ve given up
Tactics they haven't done a hell of alot other than show the baseline level of efficiency you expect at this point of the CL
we just look cooked on a macro level.
Gazza M
Exactly, they haven't had to be impressive beat us.
Our attackers are our weak point, and it's definitely a case of the whole being better than the sum of it's parts. So many players who aren't good enough at this level.
Imagine we had an actual fucking striker. Wild.
Wasn't even offside in the end. Would have stood if he'd taken a proper touch towards goal and scored.
9 minutes left. No ideas. Not enough changes. Wrong subs earlier. Arteta has a lot to learn.
Qwiss there remain questions it's he capable of getting us to where we want to get.
We didnt spend 105m for Rice to get outclassed by plumbers like Lainer and old Goretzka
Clrnc Speaking of Rice, he's been shown up a bit in Europe for me.
Clrnc
shhhhhhh don't tell anybody, but that's a part of what it means to be a premier league team, you spend big on unremarkable players because you're a premier league team.
Clrnc he's been garbage for a while now. Cannot be the lynchpin of the midfield. He needs to be an accessory.
mdgoonah41 then we risk losing 2-0 to the unstoppable force that is bayern munchen. 1-0 looks better.
We work a lot and our effort in defending and that makes you hard to score against but it's not often enough to win the big titles. I still feel we are a club and Arteta lack what's needed to turn being up there to seriously being able to win these types of competitions and matches and I think it's legitimate to have questions about that.
Meatwad
If you've drank the PL is ze best league in the world kool aid, then you will forever be surprised in European games.
Meatwad shhhhhhh don't tell anybody, but that's a part of what it means to be a premier league team, you spend big on unremarkable players because you're a premier league team.
This is embarrassing
awooga83 no he is not.
Gazza M yeah I said earlier that I was glad we had the home game first because I trust us more to keep a lead than chase a game.
To our credit we've rarely had to chase this season, but the times we did I don't think we do it very well.
our guys know there is no 3rd leg here, right?
