Champions league
0-1 is not the worst scoreline to take into the 2nd leg but we had so many opportunities to level it. :snoop:

yeah i mean we went into the mighty Bernabéu and scored a few goals

if partey played today at worst a draw he would have marked dembele on that shot he scored

Arsenal had nobody in the attack that made me even raise an eyebrow. That's why they aren't winning the league.

That said 1-0 isn't the end of this. Definitely need Neves to play well again and Donnarumma made a couple nice saves.

Arsenal got nothing for Dembele or Kvara
We missing key players at every level of the field

Merino up top went from a science experiment to saving our season. Im ready to call Partey our most important player

Coward won’t do it
The fact he made ZERO tactical subs until extra time is completely unacceptable. I could even accept waiting until the last 10 mins to make a tactical change… but the 90th minute?

He has no faith in his bench and too much in the starting XI.

Martinelli needs to be dropped next game. I would say Odegaard too but the captain will always be immune.

Same issues all year. Saka FC, left side inconsistency, no forwards, no midfield cohesion once Partey isn’t sitting in the middle.

We can still do something but I have to admit it’s unlikely they don’t score more at home.

It’s disgusting we spent as much as we did on the midfield and neither Havertz nor Merino can play there :dead:
