...why are BvB giving up 3on1 counterattacks? Do they not care about avoiding losing by brutatily in the R16 or what???

You've conceded only 4 goals in Europe. Only Real Sociedad (2) and Dortmund (4) have conceded same or less goals. You're a top 5 team in Europe IMO.
In an one off game, may be there is a chance. Arsenal doesn't have the squad depth to compete at both front.

*cough* Bullshit *cough*

If City get back to their level it's curtains for everyone else. Otherwise, it's wide open and Arsenal might very well win it. Right now they're the best side in the world

The CL offside VAR is magical, why is this not just implemented everywhere, how can one tournament have specialist technology to itself?

So much better than leaving it up to idiots who don't know if they're checking on or offside.

That was also exceptionally kind of Leao to stay on his feet.

Highly doubt that.
Why? They’ve given them a tough battle whenever they’ve played in the last 12 months. Don’t think Arsenal are particularly special, certainly not to the level where they’re certainties to eliminate Newcastle.

The CL is a glorified FA Cup set to music

Must be frustrating watching 37 year old Giroud spearhead your attack on the counter. He can’t run or carry the ball at all.

Zaire Emery is the best 17 years old midfielder i have ever seen.
So incredibly calm and clever on the ball

In our current form we wouldnt have a chance against last seasons City. But this years City wouldnt have a chance against last years City either.
City will likely get closer to last seasons form come the knock out stages. Sure this time last year Arsenal was top of the league.

Arsenal are the only ones.
Knowing Arsenal they'll get knocked out by some team they are expected to beat

Who is this guy on the goals show with a hardon for Mbappe? He's insufferable. Screaming every two seconds like some YouTuber. Can't stand him.
