Again I think nwaneri with Odegaard would be a joy.
How do we make that work. Merino and Rice as a guard behind them?

Martin Tyler going on and on about corners. Just shut up.

OK, well we're 3-0 up against Monaco (granted, at home) and we are missing literally 7 defenders and our CM is being played out of position. I think that's respectable. This will move us up into like 5th or so i think, yeah?

USArsenal 4th

Nope. We are 3rd. Satisfying night of football

USArsenal and it could have been another 4 goals. Good game.

Havertz with a strong cameo. Pity Jesus couldn't work his way more into the starting CF reckoning by finishing one of those chances ffs. He's such a dreadful finisher but most of our players are.

Merino quite neat in the second half.

Raya with uncharacteristically poor kicking.

And yeah, Trossard man. So disappointing.

goon

good thing we apparently did not need them tonight.

Fuuuuck Monaco and fuck Giroud for that loss a decade ago.

Was in a box for this 1! Different experience but still very enjoyable! MLS great pass for the 1st goal. He can take Zinchenko's place in the squad next season.

Very happy with the win. Would be great to avoid that knockout round in Feb. 1 more win will do it

I was surprised at the number of empty seats. Almost felt like I was at a league cup game. Upper tiers and club level seats had plenty of bald spots. It's surprising since there was a lot to play for in this match.

I couldn't be arsed to wake up to watch, just saw the tail end cos it's when I usually wake up anyway.

A little bit ennui, a little bit bad timing.

banduan you missed a good performance. Lots of promising performances. Saka was special. Declan’s distribution was excellent. And Kiwior, MLS, and Jesus made claims for more playing time.

Dom the game sold out, I know because I applied for and didn't get tickets.

Claudius and Jesus made claims for more playing time.

Qwiss Dom the game sold out, I know because I applied for and didn't get tickets.

There were a ton of tickets on ticket exchange hours before the game. So sold out but loads of no shows.

Qwiss If you want to score open play goals, you need to create open play chances. And Jesus consistently made good runs that gave him opportunities to scores goals. And then he created the Saka goal.
If I compare this performance to what we have seen in other games, it’s a big step up and means he can step in for Havertz if he maintains or betters this showing
