That was great stuff again.

It’s almost as if moving the ball around the pitch really quickly creates more difficulties for the opposition than endlessly passing between central defenders and goalkeeper waiting to spot a pass through a set midfield and defence.

Who’d a thought it?

Oh well, Arsenal tonight...

Set pieces it is then.

just read that over the 3 1/2 hours of football, Barcelona were only ahead for 6 minutes of it

A thoroughly enjoyable 2 leg tie. But I'll be honest, I was slightly disappointed it didn't go to a penalty shootout to top it off.

Samesies. Would've been the perfect finish.

And they’ve found a new one! Long throws, which I suppose was somehow inevitable. 11 of them though? Do me a favour. Poor sod could hardly lift his arms for the last one!

Still, if the club’s philosophy is who needs a centre forward when you’ve got a set piece coach then they got exactly what they deserved.

Looking forward to hearing the standard whining and hard done by stories coming from North London’s finest today.

Well, Arteta seems to have started things off nicely by saying Arsenal are 100% the best team he’s seen in the CL this season.

So, no striker needed then I guess. Just wait for Jesus and Havertz to return - they’d have made all the difference last night, right?

Arteta is completely deluded. Inter, Barcelona and PSG are the best teams I’ve seen and Liverpool were the best of the English entries.

Why does everyone talk about a Spurs - Utd Europa League final like it's a given? I can see Bodo turning over Spurs tonight.

I can also see them beating United in a one off game

Definitely got a chance with Berg back, and it's Spurs, so anything can happen. Big ask to turn around the two goals though.

I mean that's debatable, but we're all on the same side here.

Arteta has nothing on the epic meLOLtdown Hansi Flick and Barcelona have been on against the ref in their game against Inter.

Especially interesting after they have - rightly - been critical of Real Madrid's complaints about referees this season with comments from Herr Flick such as:

We should protect the referees. They are human


And two weeks ago before the final of the Copa del Rey:

We need the referees, and we have to look after them and be careful. It's not fair play not to look after them, it's not showing them respect.
