How often when something goes against PSG do they implode? There's a mentality problem at that club that rears its head consistently.

Yeah and they've dropped off a little further which has actually made them more vulnerable not less.

 

Did the ref just wait for VAR to look at it and then make the decision? No 10 minute wait or having to watch a tv screen?

 

Would be great if we can get a third goal here. Getting close.

 

Yeah PSG still haven't regained any of their composure.

Game goes against them and they can't handle it.

 

So poor from PSG. It was obvious that Guardiola wasn't going to change much second half - he always plays these away ties very cautiously, something that's proven to be his downfall a fair few times in the last decade - but PSG had to play higher to take advantage of the fact that City had no one to stretch their defence. Falling back just played into City's hands.

Then the inevitable temper tantrums when the game turned.

 

It’s going to a Chelsea/City final and I’m going to absolutely hate my life for that evening.

 

!!!

 

ETH and Southgate seem to be the most wanted by Levy

 

lfgggg crew

 

If it’s Southgate I genuinely don’t know what I’m going to do.

 

fuck!

 

Finally watched the Asif Kapadia documentary on Maradona. Highly recommend.

 

BT Sport have confirmed they're in early talks to sell off their sports portfolio.

BT Sport confirms sale discussions

Rumours that DAZN is interested, which would be very intriguing. That's exactly what I want and what could stop me illegally streaming every game. I don't wanna pay £40+ a month for a BT package, plus a TV licence, to only get a few relevant games a month. I'd be much more likely to pay for a streaming service like DAZN if they use similar pricing to what they've already established abroad.

 

Alaba to Madrid almost done according to Fabrizio. I hate how good of a pick up that is for them.

 

Our first team may be shite but Arsenal have one of the best academies there is right now. Hale End is unbelievable.

after Smith-Rowe and Saka, next season you’ll see and hear a lot about Miguel Azeez who plays as a CM and is an absolute baller. Alongside that expect Balogun to get game time up front, and Kido Taylor-Hart to start featuring out wide. And that’s not mentioning the two 17 year olds Omari Hutchinson and ESPECIALLY Charlie Patino, who looks astounding.

I’m super happy we are bringing these players though and if we can get our act together in the transfer market we could have a much more positive future. They won’t all make it, that’s just how it is, but I expect a lot of them to either make it or become good sellable assets.

 

I have no excitement for tonight. Just pure dread we're going to be humiliated by Unai Emery.

 

I think it might be quite funny but also depressing.

2-0 to them first leg, 1-0 to us in the second. Enough to look like we had a chance, without actually having one.

 

Depends which Arsenal turn up tonight. I reckon we have a decent chance of an all English final.

 

Pepe starting up top is certainly bold.

 

Playing football the Arsenal way

 

Granada currently beating Barcelona in the game in hand match (it would be their first ever win in Barcelona) and Koeman got sent off so he won't be on the sidelines for the next two matches, which are Valencia and Atleti.
