Match Reaction v Villarreal (away)

[McNamara That Ghost...]

:lol:

Still in with a chance, somehow.

Which we will of course fuck up.

[Gooner23]

Arteta 2 Arsenal 1

Really bad night for the manager.

[Letters]

Of course.
And I’ve always been a bit scared of playing Utd in the final anyway so over to you, Emery.

[Marc Overmars]

Very much in our hands but can you trust this lot to turn it around. Absolutely not.

Even if we get through I’m sure United would turn us over with ease anyway.

We need to be put out of our misery once and for all.

[KSE Comedy Club]

Total shit show.

3 strikers all on the bench.

:doh:

[WGC Goon]

With our home form and toothless attack I think we'll fall short

[Chippy]

With our home form and toothless attack I think we'll fall short

Hopefully, could not stand to see us get thumped by the Mancs in the final.

[Mac76]

i think we will get through but Moan U will make us look silly in the final, like Chelski did before

[selassie]

With our home form and toothless attack I think we'll fall short

me too, besides as others have said, we’ll only get embarrassed in the final anyway.

[Bumble]

it could have been worse

[IBK]

Arteta stunk the place up last night. It wasn't really down to the players. A mixture of trying to be too clever by half and being too stubborn to see it and change things as the match progressed.

I can't see us turning this around at home - as I think Arteta will still try first not to concede an away goal and it won't work. But if we do go through - with Auba/Tierney/Luis back in I'm not sure United will roll us that easily. We know that with our best team available we can play well. The worry is that without key players we are a mess, and that's compounded by baffling team decisions. It would be great if Arteta could just say that he got things wrong - that would be a little comfort at least!

I’m not sure I fancy us against anyone in the final, tbh. We’re not a powerful, athletic squad and we tend to run out of stream badly by the end of the season - it’s becoming a pretty consistent theme each year now.

We’re also going to be relying on far too many players who, for one reason or another, know that they might not / definitely won’t be here next year, so the closer we get to any transfer window, the more the giving-a-shitness level is going to drop.
