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

[Letters]

I'm not giving up on this yet. A tough task yes, but stranger things have happened.

Exactly. I mean, I'm married. MARRIED! (Sorry to disappoint).

Let's go for 2-2, win on away goals.

Let's drop Xhaka for this match. The guy's a liability and there's every chance he'll cost us at the most critical moment. Time to take steps to prevent these "almost" outcomes and, clearly, a prudent measure is to bench this guy. I'd bench Mustafi too, another raging liability.

Wenger won't do it though. And we'll end up paying the price.

I don't care what the score is as long as we win. Not sure what your first sentence means though.

Its only disappointing for your missus tbf

[Xhaka Can’t]

He used to but he hasnt had a really good game for about 6 months now

So, you’re saying he’s overdue!

I read ya.

Welbeck

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

At the game I thought Welbeck was fouled just before Aleti's goal. Just watched the replay for the first time on tv and I still think it was a foul on Welbeck and I think he actually played well in the first leg. Yes he missed a chance but he wasn't the only one.

I fear Henrikh is no more likely to be a direct goal threat than Wlebeck is and Welbeck is good in the build up play too. I don't think the choice (if one needs to be taken between them) is a actually a clear cut one.

It was a foul, clear as day.

Trouble is, Welbeck dived 3 times before that trying to win a FK - so when he was actually fouled, the ref didn't believe him and waved play on.

We need players with brain cells for this game

That rules out Welbeck

Maybe he was fouled, maybe not. But what was he thinking when he took on 4 defenders anyway? Where was he planning to go? You know exactly what would have happened, even if he was successful. He'd have checked back and then laid it off. So why take the risk at all? It was idiotic play. It's not the first time he's lost the ball high and put us under pressure.

Of course if Kos wasn't in complete moron mode it wouldn't have cost us so dearly. But our forwards have an extra responsibility to ensure our defenders aren't caught out because we all know what our defenders are capable of. Calamity.
