Turns out you can lose the Champions League final on penalties and wake up the next day and enjoy an incredibly life-affirming experience. After all these years, an Arsenal fanbase united is something to behold. Soak it all up. Enjoy every drop. Don’t forget these moments. Cherish every memory. ❤️

Kindly fuck yourself. The era in which we were born doesn’t have any impact on whether or not our club means any more or less than if we were born in another time.

That’s the worst. Because these boys are gonna get about 2 weeks to recover before playing every 3 days for another 9 months.

Then we have definitely been talking past each other. In somewhat violent agreement. Oh the joys of passionate fandom over the internet. I believe we can both come together on the basis of wanting more for our team and the fact that a happy marriage of attacking football and a solid defense.

Having a solid defensive base does not automatically translate to playing that way. See Wenger’s teams in 97/98 and 03/04. Probably not as solid, but nearly so.

I would agree most of the time. However after looking back at how we played in the second half of ‘22-‘23 I would say more definitively that it has more to do with just getting it over the line.

I just hope that we can sign the correct players for next season so we can play the kind of football that this team truly can.

I agree in principle. However, this was very much an outlier season for us against the “big six”. Of the last four seasons that we have been competing we have gone 15,22,20,19 points versus the other big teams.

While this may be true, mine may suffer just the same by us losing.

That’s where I am leaning. When I played I was a LB, and I took a couple of pens in my time. But, for the teams I played for it was always deferred to the forwards and midfielders first.

100%! I had some respect for them before this. But, the lack of backbone in our secondary players should be addressed immediately.

He stepped up. And as I said in the reply above he has my upmost respect for that.

And I respect the hell out of him for stepping up. I just would have expected more from our more attacking players.

I believe the subs could have been more impactful. I don’t believe pulling Martin was the right call. Pairing him with Eze and Victor could have born fruit. And having Gabriel taking a penalty to save us while Noni and Zubi watched was probably not the right call.

Most definitely one of the poorest officiating displays of my football supporting times. But, onward and upward. We will be back for this one.

If you look closer, there were far fewer dangerous chances they had. Our defense did their job. And we played the same game we have all season. We didn’t allow them to operate, soaked up their pressure, and but for some decent defending by them we would have not needed extra time.

Literally watched Trossard be tossed aside and then refused to give a foul for similar behavior from PSG. It was an absolute sham of an officiating display.

I disagree that we were outplayed today. PSG has immense attacking talent, and they needed a penalty given away by our third choice right back to even the match. We completely stumped the”best attacking team in Europe”.

Exactly. That is the same way we were taught as kids. Even up into the higher levels that I coached in the States, that was what was taught.

I would tend to agree that he has been relatively negative the second half of the season. But I wouldn’t still take a midfielder or winger taking a penalty over a center half.

Doing too much. It’s always e better plan to keep penalties simple and just hit it hard where you mean to.

Honestly I wouldn’t have expected that from Zubimendi. I wish Merino had been in, he would have stepped up.

Just tried to do too much with the run up. But definitely agree that Noni or Zubi should have been ahead of Gabriel in line to take that.

There was talk the first couple months that we could have broken the record for fewest goals allowed in a season. Injuries and/due to playing every three days all season cost us that.

The officiating is well beyond out of hand. PSG can do whatever they want hell they want and Arsenal touches one of theirs and it’s a free kick.
