Are you seriously writing this with a clear mind? You don’t think that in any year in the last 80 years we wouldn’t be underdogs against Madrid? Even with exceptional recruitment we would be underdogs.
as the saying goes "there's none so blind as they that won't see"
You see just because im a supporter, im not a blind supporter and even though AFC couldnt give 2 fucks about my opinions on how the club is run it doesn't exclude me from looking at the club i support with a very critical lens. Some would call it having high standards, others would call it negativity. I dare say if a lot of fans had the same standards we wouldn't have been lumbered with wonga for so long, but of course you have to take the good with the bad.

I think Limerick's conspiracy theories are up there with Le Tissier's. Do you think the jab you got during COVID was just a ploy so the government could microchip you and track what you're doing mate. Can't imagine how painful it must be to be so paranoid every day lol

Not only is every PL ref out to get us but now it's all the European ones too

Re: Real Madrid H Big lugs quarter final first leg Tues April 8th KO 8pm
I'd suggest making the quarter final of an elite competition is maintaining a high standard. History has proven that it's not always the best team on paper that wins this competition and this Arsenal team is stronger and tactically more astute than the side that made the final in 06. Chelsea won in 2012 and were atrocious in the league. We've handed out some serious beatings in the competition this season and I'm actually glad the second leg is away as it takes away some of the anxiety.xgtdec wrote: ↑Mon Apr 07, 2025 1:31 pmI think you'll find that in my first post on this thread i said that i would come back and gladly eat all the humble pie there is on offer, so no doubt if we got a result id be at first stunned and would then come around to the fact that over 2 legs we did what was required and credit where it's due.General wrote: ↑Mon Apr 07, 2025 1:15 pmIf you’re only interested in being proven, why do even bother supporting.

Your absolutely right, i cant even count the amount of times ive been involved in banter with the lads on a team or in the pub and to keep them all quiet ive jumped up on the bar and listed out all the quarter finals we've ever made it to, oh boy does it silence the supporters of other teams like theres no tomorrow.General wrote: ↑Mon Apr 07, 2025 10:39 pmI'd suggest making the quarter final of an elite competition is maintaining a high standard.

6 of their players on yellow cards
players in question include Eduardo Camavinga, Luka Modric, Lucas Vazquez, Vinicius Jr., Endrick and Antonio Rudiger.
Plus if Ancellotti gets a yellow he misses the next game

Match Day and on my way to the Emirates.
I refuse to get drawn into any arguments.
Criticisms of the team and manager can wait until another day.
Tonight is what it’s all about - knock out football at the highest level. Time to get behind the team and the manager. Any other “modern day noise” can wait to another day.
Come on the Arsenal !
