As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
18 years ago we didn't kill off these *word censored* and it cost us. Tonight, I think we might well have done. Fucking great effort. Well done, boys. Well fucking done.
I hate having a pop at the support especially when I’m not not there myself but the atmosphere tonight was non existent until the Auba goal and 5 minutes before half time and 5 minutes before the end half the stands emptied.
I just can’t get my fucking head around why people who do that in any game let alone a European semi final

Because they are cùnts. I've spent 30 years following Arsenal home and away and in Europe been to hundreds of games and I've never arrived late or left early and I had further to travel to get home than a couple stops on the fucking tube. Fuck them.
The defence was its usual shambolic self but the front 2 were outstanding. Think we will score out there but are more than capable of conceding 3 or 4 also. This tie is far form over and it will be a massively nervous night next Thursday.
Just coming back from the game.
What a great night!
Was in the Clock End which was absolutely mental pre match with smoke bombs going off, people dancing on the bars. great stuff!
Lacazette and Aubamayang missed quite a few but that’s what they do. Anyway 3-1 is a good result. Koscielny was my man of the match, he was immense especially as he had to basically carry the defence with the German mascot walking around next to him.
A word on our support in the stadium. I was upper tier tonight where there were literally hundreds of empty seats. This for a supposedly sold out fixture. Any season ticket holders who either didn’t turn up or sell their ticket are complete scum in my opinion. Absolute disgrace. As for people turning up late/leaving early pathetic. Fuck off and support another sport

Think we may have done enough tonight. Can see us scoring out there to cancel out their away goal. Hopefully we get at them from the start like they did to us tonight and kill the game off. I think the character of our team is stronger than Valencia and getting the first goal next week will deflate them.
Please can Emery get keown in to coach the defence,? Whether he'll make a difference I don't know but at least he'll be off the BT Sport punditary roster for when Arsenal play.
