Absolutely. And then they go ape shit when the opponent (well within their right!) decides to play on. Does my head in. Especially when it’s clearly time wasting tactics to boot.
Griezmann flew in with a reckless challenge and the ref didn’t even give a freekick to Arsenal. He then got up shouted at Welbeck and then flew over to the ref. How he does not get a yellow at any point is ridiculous.

Also zero European competition in 22 years for Wenger, which is more shambolic than anything else when we talk about a supposedly elite manager.

Out with all the drama of a damp fart.

Rather fitting end to his career with Arsenal, all flash and no substance.

Same old Arsenal. Feel for Arsene but he doesn't deserve to win this, his players were cowards in and out of possession.

I feel a bit for Wenger, but they didn't have a decent chance when I watched (second half).

Atlético are as cnutish as their neighbours though, I would've loved to put a good tackle on Griezmann if I was an Arsenal player at the end.

Useless defence, no urgency in our play and a lack of quality upfront.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

The players could have given more of an effort. The new manager will have to get rid of a lot of them, starting with their defence imho.

They could have played for 24 hours straight and Arsenal still wouldn't have scored. Atletico are a fecking solid unit. I wish we were as solid in defense.

Simeone is a clown. Proud of our effort today. I just hope Atletico lose the final badly now.
You guys didn't create anything. A lot of possession but only in safe areas. Didn't take enough risks. Atletico created the best chances and looked the more dangerous team today. At the Emirates you were unlucky but over 180 minutes they were better than you.
