Good half but could and should have been put to bed. We'll get chances after half-time.
We put it to bed last week
No way this lot are going to score 4 goals in second half
You had to say it

Timber having a cracking half.
He's been superb.
Him, Rice, Saliba... Partey and Merino have been solid as well.
ps: Fuck Off OhDeargod you Numpty Fuck.

I'm gonna forgive Saka, had he chipped it slightly more to the middle it would have been class but he has earned himself a reprieve ten fold for me.
We look dangerous on the break, Odegaard is trying too hard because he's back at his old ground, he'll scire a screamer second half.
The refs and var are so much better in Europe.

I actually don’t think it was over confidence from Saka. I think his arse went as he ran up to strike it. If you dink it you put it down the middle, he shat himself and tipped it to the side. Didn’t have the confidence to put his foot through it.

So far so good.
Except for Saka's abortion of a penno.
I am still Absolutely bewildered and Dumfounded That He Actually Tried That in Our Biggest Game of the Season So Far...
He must beginning to believe the Hype about being Star Boy etc...
yes...really weird.....normally takes a great penalty

My fucking nerves are shot to be honest.
Great defending and setup. Still can't believe that penalty, fucking criminal to try a Panenka at this stage, stupid stupid stupid
Need to maintain discipline now, keep it tight and hit them on the break, we do have a goal in us, if we can Nick a goal they are really up against it.
Come on you Gunners
Yep, definitely a goal in us and we've had some very good situations in and around their box, but haven't capitalised on them. It does highlight our lack of a striker.

One thing we need to keep an eye on is Raya not getting himself a second yellow for buggering about with the goal kicks.

Tend to agree with this. Said it at the time, his bottle went.

Cmon Arsenal 45mins to go.
Ancelotti will grunt and oink at them in the dressing room and tell them to dive as much as possible so we just have to be even more aware.
Saka still has a goal in him. COYG!!

Agreed Perry. I said earlier on that we'll get cheap bookings if we keep fucking about with restarts. No sympathy from me.

Mbappe really is a stroppy little prick, Madrid suits him perfectly
