PSV vs Arsenal 12-12-2023 KO: 17:45

[HCZ_Reborn]

A cowardly lineup from Arteta in a game which is completely pointless

Why are Saliba, Gabriel, Jorginho, Trossard and Havertz playing?


Doesn’t matter what happens in this game. Why are we risking our first choice centre back pairing

[radford78]

Got to agree there, particularly Gabriel and Saliba???

Unlucky from Elneny.

NKETIAH!!!

Assist by Nelson

[HCZ_Reborn]

We are winning the wrong game

[Marc Overmars]

No idea why Saliba and Gabriel have been risked for this but let’s just hope they come out unscathed.

Trossard shot saved right at the end and Kiwior sends it wide.

[Mac76]

I wasn't able to see last night's game but was pleased to see Ram and others given a start, but agree with people here that it felt a little risky playing btoh Gabriel and Saliba at the back

Glad Nelson got an assist too, looking at the highlights I thought Ram was unlucky with their goal, he almost got to it

[HCZ_Reborn]

I thought 1-1 was about right, on balance of play if anyone deserved to win it was them. But defenders aside, given the side we put out not a bad result albeit in a game that was completely insignificant for both teams.

We got the job done at home as far as this group is concerned and the only blip was the away game in Lens

Despite that, competently got through the group. Still the possibility we could get drawn with a tricky opponent (Napoli, Inter, PSG) but could just as easily be drawn with Copenhagen
