No team is easy at this stage. I just would rather not face the favorites.

I hope we get a decent draw tomorrow.

Look who is talking. What were your comments for your team built and designed to cheat. Your players dived 16 times against Juve at Wembley, but all you did was defend all dives like you always do. Don't even try to compare or drag Arsenal through the dirty diving mud your Manager openly accepts and your players do with regularity every game.

What Welbeck did is no different to what your players do every game. Your players do worse, so spare the sanctimonious drivel.

Contact in the box is not a foul, but going down theatrically to win a pen when there is hardly any contact is in my view cheating. Unlike you I will never defend it. Never!

The Milan player ran across Welbeck's line, he felt the slightest of contact and went down. I do not condone it, I disagree with it.

Welbeck did what other strikers do against our defenders. Should the Milan defender have gotten a red card? Didn't Kos. get red carded against Munich at the Emirates?
Our players need to do this more. Dele Ali does it all the time.
Arsenal was the better team over the 2 legs and deserved to win.
On to the next game.

At what point did he start playing this role? because I took a break before the Milan goal, and resumed watching when Xhaka scored. He played well at the end after Ozil and Mkhi went off. At the beginning, we was playing advanced role, and didn't appear to do much (substantially). Granted he was not hiding...

Wenger must be as clueless as Slowloco to leave Mo on the bench and keep such a technically and athletically challenged donkey like Chacrap on the field instead .... any opposing coach with any brains just needs to instruct his players to bait Arsenal players to pass the ball to Xhaka and then press him hard ... he will almost unfailingly panic and turn the ball over ...

Such a poor and limited player ... yet El Neny who is miles ahead remains on the bench ... it’s a clear case of bias against an African ... if El Neny was Spanish or South American the difference would be clear :curse:

My view is simple. Players who dive are cheats. Alli cheats. I don't support it but I can't stand hypocrites either. Wenger and yourself should comment on this. Welbeck dived. He is a cheat. Pires used to dive as well.

2nd half, but he did not do his job covering for Ramsey in that 1st half. But Wenger had to get up twice to give him instructions to hold a deeper position. Wilshere plays better from a deep position but he is not disciplined. He thinks he is a number 10.
