    Atletico Madrid v Arsenal (03/05 BT Sport 1, 20:05)

    I think this is going to be another instalment in glorious failure.

    I'm sure we'll find a way to pub a goal, sit back and conspire to lose the game.

    Expecting glorious failure but it's really all or nothing, the players just have to raise their game to levels not seen before.

    I’ll be shocked if get close to them tbh.

    The Jan transfer moves went as well as possible for the future but was really boneheaded in respect of ensuring we had a squad that could challenge in Europe.

    We should have kept Giroud until the end of the season.
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.

    You just know he'll start with Welbeck and Xhaka = game over

    Honestly I'm still holding out some vague miracle even though the odds are that's it all over.


    Just one early goal and then it's all too play for.

    Our season boils down to 90 minutes

    We need to sit back, put 11 behind the ball and hold tight to go into HT 0-0. Then 2nd half grow in confidence and get a goal. Then retreat and do an Atletico on Atletico

    No that's dumb. Tbh them scoring a goal doesn't change things as we need to a score a goal ourselves to progress. 0 - 0 and we're out.

    All out attack from the first minute and hope to get an early goal. Then sit back and hope to punish Atletico when they have to come at us.

    All out attack from 1st minute?

    And get countered 4 times and be 4-0 down

    We are not good enough to keep it tight and try and nick a goal.
    We need to be a bit bold. A score draw is fine, 2-2 would see us through.
    Come on Arsenal!!

    I would start Mkhi ahead of Welbz, he has more guile and we need to be a little bit clever with how we attack. Welbz throwing himself around won’t make a difference because they relish that kind of battle.
