    No tactical nous.

    We play one way and one way only.

    And if that way fails, we continue to play it.

    Wengers weakness, well one of them is that he has too much belief in his squad of players to come good so that he doesnt concentrate on the oppositions weaknesses and how to exploit them or their strengths and how to counter it.

    He fully believes that if we play our way then we will succeed. Worked domestically til 2005 but never in Europe

    We'll never win the CL under Wenger - forget it. We're too weak mentally. We would have missed all our penalties tonight. The days of strong characters like Vieira, Henry, Campbell and well over.

    For some reason, even though I think we are lacking little bit mental strength and desire, I think we would've stuck the pens away tonight. Or any other night.

    Anyway - irrelevant musing.

    But when he goes ultra deffensive he gets panned.

    Where we get RVP sent off for no reason,chavs get messi missing a pen. Says it all really.

    We're in it and if tonight's game (and in fact Chelsea's entire CL campaign) tell us anything it tells us we can win it even if by sheer fluke. If Barca had finished like Bayern in our final we've have a CL win under our belts now. We didn't get embarrassed in that match like the chavs were embarrassed tonight. Very slender margins can make all the difference as well as outrageous fortune.

    Well we were pretty much outclassed in Paris albeit cos we had ten men for most of the game. DOnt think we played much better in Paris than Chelsea did tonight to be fair.

    Of course it's very fine margins and a lot of luck. But where Chelsea had Drogba netting their only chance in the 90th minute to stay alive, we had Bendtner. As has been the case for a long time - 2 or 3 players at the Arteta/Podolski level on top of what we have...that's it. That'll do it. £35m - that's probably our price for success. It's maddening we aren't taking that final step.

    Good point, well made.
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.

    But at least the final was good to watch tbf this was rubbish for what it was. The Europa league final shat all over that one.

    And we played with 10 men Chavs had 11 so they had no excuse not to be out classed.
