Atletico v Arsenal | UCL SF 1st Leg | Weds 29 April | TnT Sports

Doc

Need to go full domination and physically batter them to a pulp, because we sure as hell ain't outplaying them

FEBravo

At least Martinelli has a good record in the CL. Yes I’m grasping at straws!

Dom

Any kind of draw will do. Wouldn't fancy this group to overturn a lead.

Gurgen

Fuck me that attack again. Fuck me.

Don Pacifico

Set Piece FC FTW

Claudius

Hopefully we can just swap on Saka, Trossard, Eze early.

I am fine with most of Arteta’s ideas but, if Trossard is fit enough for 90, would prefer to see him on left over Martinelli. I think Hincapie is a one man army and doesn’t need Martinelli’s covwr

USArsenal

Claudius and doesn’t need Martinelli’s covwr

Disagree with this completely. He's a warrior, but he can't defend 2 at all times.

Claudius Hopefully we can just swap on Saka, Trossard, Eze early.

That would mean we're chasing the game. I'd rather not chase it early. Just keep it 0 at the back and pray we get something from a corner.

Feels like we're gonna see the total opposite of yesterday, get ready for a msm onslaught that's already been building up since yesterday.

RowJimmy

Haramball here we go!

Madueke needs to do something noteworthy today, going backwards in a big way at the moment.

USArsenal

Im praying we can find a goal from somewhere. Set piece, penno, someone up front finally stepping up, a flub, anything. It would be nice to see Set Piece FC get back on track. Its been MIA the past few weeks. (Eze goal v Newcastle aside)

Don Pacifico

USArsenal Its been MIA the past few weeks. (Eze goal v Newcastle aside)

Which is why there were a fair few people who were worried about our reliance on set pieces earlier in the season. We saw the same thing happen last year as set piece goals evaporated come the business end of the season.

Optimising set pieces is a sensible tactic but our attack needs more ways in from open play (and better practitioners).

Panda

Yeah Trossard being dumped in favour of Marti and Madueke who aren't exactly doing anything of note is odd.

Don Pacifico

Panda must be fitness related, surely?

Panda

Don Pacifico Have no idea. He's hardly making it off the bench either. Seems like he's getting the Eze treatment lol.

GooneriC

We will have to go long between the fullbacks and CB , hope that the Gyok can hold the ball up , hope that we get to the second ball and hope for the best from Gabi and Madueke . If we try to play tippy tappy sideways/ backpassball we will get beaten.

I'd take 0-0 away in a CL semi..

Irishgunner

I think Zubi is actually our key man here tonight - real lack of progressive passers in our defensive players

USArsenal

Ahhhh decent chance.. Looks like GarMart almost got in Hinc's way on that cross
