Arsenal 1 vs 1 Atletico Madrid FT

[Nkume]

We should have taken a 1-0 to Madrid.

[ojafranpa]

Nketiah should have come in. Wenger so stubborn and scared.

Nketiah??? What exactly has he shown that makes you think he can handle Atletico Madrid's defense better than the players on now?

They need someone that can put the ball in the net bro. Not just stroking the ball around.

I know that. It's been missing today but Nketiah has scored how many goals for Arsenal and against who? There are games and there are games, Atleti at home isnt the place to throw in Nketiah imho, kid would be short one.

It's just the first leg, it's not total desperation time.

Sometimes you have to play your wild card joor.

It's just the first leg, it's not total desperation time.

First leg with a man up for 78 mins ? and you dont see desperation ? ok o

[Nkume]

Nevertheless, we can still win in Madrid.

[Gooner1]

oh well.......what happened to that send off the boys promised?
wenger is really passed it.....glad he's gojing

[SylverEagles]

Let us just get a serious Manager in that will do the needful. This junk has continued for far too long.

[ojafranpa]

Plat the slowness is the issue ..it is predictable and thats why AM LET us have the ball outside and just wait for us .

Thanks. They are too slow reason for a third striker to play.

[Cally]

Make no mistake, today was 12 vs 10.
We all know who had 10 players. Ref chose his side in the first 10 mins.

I just hope in the return leg, they find a serious ref, and this mumu is never allowed near a big game in his lfe again

Whoever you are, you're talking complete nonsense. You've gone on and on about the referee despite clear evidence that he's right. I'm sure you're likely a Man U fan...smh

[Gooner1]

Wow!

How did we tie this game?

we r sheet

[SylverEagles]

You have started smoking your stash again??

[charlie]

full time, advantage Atleti.

Arsenal must be killers in Madrid.

Ahem,...Madrid no be Moscow.
You should look up ATL's home record this year.
Arsenal is in trouble.

[theYemster]

Will you guys blame Wenger for this #$% up too>

No, it's my fu.king fault right?

Pfft!

[bonecrusher]

...but why dem play the pineapple face, Costa. Abi the guy don regress since leaving epl? He for harass and dive more against Arsenal defenders.

Still injured. Rumor is he was on the team sheet for antics, you know intimidate Kos and Mustafi from the bench lol

[ojafranpa]

Ballerin i don't think that guy can improve. All speed and no brain.

I felt we would rue these chances .Wenger is very stubborn sha ..change tactics for where ? Played the same thing for 90 mins no man change sef.

I don't get your complaint. Arsenal has dominated , they've just failed to finish. Apart from Nketiah (young pup who has proven ZERO), who would you bring on to finish??

Plat read all my posts..I had asked for Nketiah and Iwobi all game.We are dominating but we are also predictable and its about speed..

We have ..slow Jack, Slow Ozil and Slow Xhaka.. too many predictable pieces .

But the slowness has not been the issue, Arsenal has simply not finished chances and then let in the killer away goal from a stupid mistake. Nothing to do with speed.

Iwobi who cannot finish? Nketiah who has scored exactly how many goals for Arsenal?

Arsenal has played VERY well today save finishing chances. It happens.

bros, we have seen this horror movie far too many times!!! Abegiii!!

My brother, reason am well......forget say Arsene Wenger be the coach. Did Arsenal not do enough to win this one? If you fail to take your chances, that's not on the coach. There're games where Arsenal are not creating and are bad. Today was not one of those. This was Atleti in their full element, soak, soak, wait for one chance, punish. Arsenal on the other hand had to finish, unfortunately there was Laca (whose chances kept getting saved) and in my opinion, the fall guy today was Welbeck who really didn't test the goalie though he did well in wing play. Other than that, there wasn't anything on the bench.
Arsenal missed the impact of a sub like Aubameyang. Iwobi no for help, ditto Nketiah.

[bk-one]

Nevertheless, we can still win in Madrid.

Hell no....i am willing to bet on that.....would you?

[oloye]

Athletico will have their own ref...it will be over in the first half. These muppets are used to losing ,it has become part of their heritage.

waffi-weed.....slow burning for the slow learning

[Nkume]

$#% happens. It is the same Atletico Madrid team that could not hold on for 5 mins in a Champions league final to Real Madrid.

There is still a second 90 to go. We will have to do it the hard way.

Plat, they did not do enough. Doing enough is scoring more goals.

That slowness almost killed them. Arsenal simply lacked finishing ability, and Oblak was his usual excellent self.
Look, I am first to criticize Wenger usual, and to call the team out but the main thing against Atleti is to create chances and Arsenal did that. Poor finishing sure.

It was predictable and Atleti couldn't stop it.

Yes I am willing to bet.

Problem with some fans....
If you cannot see the referee unfairly influenced this game with his quick whistle especially early in the game, then I cannot help you or your color blindness.

BTW, you no know me, so take your assumptions and shove am! Manure fan ko, Toto fan ni.....
