THE Arsenal v Bayern BumBoys 9th/10th April 2024

[Perryashburtongroves]

Get that out of the system and we can turn this around because we are more than capable of winning this tonight

[Natural Born Gooner]

Martinelli and Rice just passengers that half

Kiwior looking every inch a player that hasn't played in 2 weeks

Raya a Spanish Ramsdale, an absolute headless chicken clown. Not only that goal but his quick throw outs to players under pressure. He's acting like there's 20 minutes left of the tie rather than 120.

I'm not sure Jorginho is the right man to have as the pivot, too slow against a team full of very quick forwards/midfielders. This game needs dribblers for us to open them up a bit......Leo will hopefully come on at some stage and work his magic.
Let's hope Arteta will calm them a bit and make the point that there's another half and another game yet! No need to panic, play or game, stay tight and force openings, they will come. Bayern are suspect in defence just keep probing.

Trossard will have a point to prove when he comes on......

[Stuart L (2)]

Disappointing that nobody has properly gone right through Kane’s ankles, well worth a booking

Ref has been okay, no complaints about the penalty decision, we missed 2 chances to tackle.

Defence all over the shop so far, usually our strongpoint

Can still salvage a win but these are Wiley fuckers for sure

We are looking at CL experience vs CL novices. 1-0 up, their full back on a yellow, a golden chance to make it 2-0. If the same happened in reverse in Munich, I don't think they start playing kamikaze on the halfway line and offer any encouragement to us. Instead the time is killed, it takes forever to get the ball back, the dark arts start and the game drifts away. We had them where we wanted them. Now they have us where they want us and look at what they're doing now - barely giving us a kick.

A whole generation of fans inside who have waited for this match and to be honest from 1-1 onwards I could hear a pin drop. Again if its 1-1 in Munich the stadium is bouncing.

I'm not going to be over critical but whatever "it" is in Europe, we don't have it. At 1-0, Liverpool go on and rinse this lot with their patched up backline and the crowd turn up the noise. I've long since accepted we just don't have it in Europe. The next test is the impact on the league form if we cant get out of this mess

[Thynker]

They lost 3-2 after being 2-0 up at HT at the weekend

[Natural Born Gooner]

Oh great Zinchenko on

[Mr Eboue]

Dunno how I feel about Zinchenko coming on. Might have a bit more pace, but won't exactly solve the problem of Sane running into the space when he eventually goes walkabout.

[TeeCee]

Oh fuck, the slug is on, Sane can hop faster than Zinchenko can run ffs
We're in trouble.

[Thynker]

Oh great Zinchenko on

Oh Jesus Christ....
What the hell is he thinking?

[DB10GOONER]

Oh great Zinchenko on

I think we will pay a price for that.

[OneBardGooner]

Oh fuck, the slug is on, Sane can hop faster than Zinchenko can run ffs
We're in trouble.

Yup!

[madjens]

Can’t be worse than Kiwior, as good as he’s been had a part in both goals

[Perryashburtongroves]

That ugly cûnt still doing that backing in shit and getting away with it. Fucking do him in the knee.

[Thynker]

He has a huge blindspot where Zinchenko is concerned.
If Kiwior needs replaced, why not Tomiyasu?
