5 nil ? Pleased if we do but very much doubt it . In 25 league matches they have let in 17 goals . played 25 drawn 4 and lost 4 defensively very tight.

The first 10 minutes will tell all for me, if it’s constantly stop start because the referee is falling for all their histrionic bullshit then I’ll be worried, if he ignores them rolling all over the pitch and lets the game flow I’ll be confident.
The more this game is allowed flow the the greater the likelihood we put them away.

UEFA draw simulations have shown that a manual draw for the new format would take between three and four hours and require 900 balls.
Instead a new hybrid method will be used - clubs will be drawn manually then the computer will take over and select their eight opponents.
The new hybrid draw is expected to take around 35 minutes - the same duration as the current draw for the existing format.
An English IT company is coming up with the software which will carry out the digital part of the draw. There will also be two backup software systems and the draw will be audited.

Mikel Arteta has won nine out of nine European group stage games as a manager at the Emirates Stadium.
However he’s not won a single knockout game at home in five attempts:
Arsenal 1-2 Olympiacos
Arsenal 0-1 Olympiacos
Arsenal 1-1 Slavia Prague
Arsenal 0-0 Villarreal
Arsenal 1-1 Sporting (3-5 pens)

Absolutely Rodders, if we can get our groove on, we can blow any team away...The Quality of The Ref can decide the outcome of this... If they start with their Shyte he needs to just book the fuckers...rodders999 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 12, 2024 4:41 pmThe first 10 minutes will tell all for me, if it’s constantly stop start because the referee is falling for all their histrionic bullshit then I’ll be worried, if he ignores them rolling all over the pitch and lets the game flow I’ll be confident.

Reckon Jesus will come in for Martinelli and Zinchenko for Kiwior(not saying I want Zinchenko in)but reckon thts what will happen, they're obviously going to sit on the lead, so won't be doing much attacking ,so Zinchenko won't have to defend too much.

Porto midfielder Alan Varela:
"We have two Champions League trophies. What do Arsenal have? We will go to them confident we can qualify.” [@FrazFletcher] #afc
This should be pinned to the dressing room wall

With the amount of perma crocks in the squad options are limited.
