2-2 on the night
if it goes to penalties do you think Cech will be subbed ? :rubchin:
:roll:

If it ends up 2-2 on the night then we would go through 4-2 on aggregate

Personally I think whether we go through or not depends on if we score and get the away goal. I will predict an exciting 3-2 defeat :barscarf:

Do we need a new post/subject for this or should we just use the home one & add on to it ??? Lose 2-1 but go through on away goals. :D :D :barscarf: :barscarf:
I thought we won the first leg 2-0 ???

Have those cheats at UEFA chalked off a goal :censored:
Sorry about getting my goals tally wrong - must have been the great 1-0 away win against Watford 2 days ago still on my mind. Promise to do better next time I'm allowed to start a new topic. We'll score 1 and go through on the away goal rule. :D :D :barscarf: :barscarf:

I just have this feeling this is our competition this year. I think we'll not only go through tonight but we will win the game too. :shock:

1-2 away win to Dick's red and white army.

And if Kryten Features pulls up injured in the warm up (please God PLEASE) then we win it 0-2.

Depressingly the TV options for this are those anti-Arsenal *word censored* on BT, or Virgin Media(in Ireland) with footballing guru Brian Kerr offering his opinions :banghead:
I don't know why they keep bashing us for whatever we do. Won against Napoli and they still found shit to say. We demolished scums 4-2 and Rio Ferdinand fucking said 'Arsenal were the better side but not in a confident manner' WTF.

That's why most of the games I watch are on NBC or B/R - Americans though naive, thy don't throw shit away at their mic just for the sake of it.

Having said this, I don't know how to feel at all. We will go through but the score is as good as any prediction. Want to say 1-2 but could well be 2-1. Thanks fuck Papa is back.

From BBC:

Arsenal head to the Stadio San Paolo holding a 2-0 advantage from the first leg at Emirates Stadium.

But manager Unai Emery says the Gunners will not play a containment game and will instead press for an away goal that would leave Napoli needing to score four times.

"We know 90 minutes here can be long, but we want to play this match not thinking about the first leg," Emery said.

"We want to play thinking to win, thinking to score, thinking to push, thinking to stop them.

"Thinking also tactically to be together and thinking when we have the space to attack the space.

"They have a lot of players with a big quality to push against us and give us a lot of problems but we also have the players to fight against them with our quality."

Arguably the best team he could pick....except of course for his love child, the hapless, helpless, useless passenger known as Xhaka :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
