Gazza M or jorginho, rice, ode midfield. merino at centre forward
Jorginho's profile would actually be good vs PSG. Hope he makes it back
Mirth Their midfielders are so nimble and quick though. I remember them owning us in central midfield when we played them earlier this season.
Could have really done with Partey's defensive nous too. Some excellent tracking, blocks and clearing headers tonight.
Mirth is there a chance of that? I thought it was a bad one? Be massive if he was fit.
Claudius Barca are the favourites but Inter are a bad match up for them. I wouldn’t be overly shocked to see the Italians in the final and i am rooting for them. Prefer a wrestling match against Inter in the final to facing Barca’s front 3
Tactics to facing Barca’s front 3
We just faced Mbape, Vini and Rodrygo and beat them 2 games in a row (and they would have barely had a sniff of the goal if not for Saliba's brain fart moment)
Anyone know when the dates for the SF are confirmed? I know we know the weeks we're playing but don't know if we're Tuesday/Wednesday.
So much of that first goal constructed by Odegaard.
Mirth I don't mind this idea.
We all know it'll be zinny in midfield 🤣🤣
Arteta's job to figure it out guys. Personally hope Jorginho is back. Rice is too good at left 8 in these big games.
It's the home game Party misses so I'd go with Jorginho.
In the semis Merino should play where he played against Madrid.
Wonder goal in the first leg, two assists in the second and won a penalty. He's doing this season what Havertz couldn't in the CL last year.
Doc
I'm pretty sure the commentator said the same thing as well.
"Nothing less than Arsenal have deserved."
Lads I don't want to take all of the credit but during the first half I said to the lads I was in the pub with I could see Martinelli scoring a late winner on a 2 or 3 pass counter from inside our own half like he did against Brighton(?) a while back, and well... manifesting.
Pepe LeFrits Keep bringing the woo if the woo can be brought Mike
Pepe LeFrits out of how many pints cometh that vision? 😉
Great result tonight, but my word I can’t wait to we strengthen the squad in the summer and add depth. We’ll be an elite force all the while Arteta is with us
USArsenal
Barcelona's front three is better and more balanced.
Regardless, we need to get past PSG first who are almost as dangerous.
Biggest concerns are Partey missing and Mendes being the strong and physical type Saka struggles against.
USArsenal Forget the big names, Barca’s attack is actually better IMO. The difference is they have a midfield and Cubarsi behind them that can consistently feed them passes into dangerous areas. Madrid’s midfield on the other hand is devoid of creativity and there’s too much responsibility on the attack to conjure up something out of nothing
Most annoying thing about the saliba brainfart is now we can’t say Real never scored against us
FEBravo hopefully puts them off him.
Qwiss that's what I said. He's always thinking, that lad. 😃
Great interviews with Saka, MLS, and Partey. Our English boys are class.
