Shared that................... with utter glee!!
....and relax. A few more chess pieces to move nicely (us getting third, scousers losing final) and then I'd be very satisfied.
If we every drop into this tournament again though I want us to go blood and bluster to win it. Goons got all the way to the semis without really playing anyone difficult and could quite easily have drawn Marseille or Salzburg instead. United the year before too, won it without playing anyone of note.
Its a tough trade-off though. Arsenal are out of CL - again. Man United had to win Europa to make it back to CL.....and relax. A few more chess pieces to move nicely (us getting third, scousers losing final) and then I'd be very satisfied.

Fickle. Had he disagreed he'd have been a ****As I was writing this Jermaine Jenas on BT started saying pretty much the same thing.
Looking at Atletico tonight, Arsenal were getting the ball into the box putting on pressure and Atletico gatting the ball with last ditch defending, and then it dawns on you that it wasn't last ditch and there was absolutely no panic, the ball comes fizzing across the six yard box and they wer completely comfortable, you could almost see them thinking right I'll just flip this up and over almost casually, just so comfortable.

They hold their own consistently in a league with goal machines Barcelona and Real Madrid. Their problem is that they don't score enough goals themselves, which usually costs them in the bigger competitions (CL/La Liga). If they could remedy that, they would be an unbelievable side.Looking at Atletico tonight, Arsenal were getting the ball into the box putting on pressure and Atletico gatting the ball with last ditch defending, and then it dawns on you that it wasn't last ditch and there was absolutely no panic, the ball comes fizzing across the six yard box and they wer completely comfortable, you could almost see them thinking right I'll just flip this up and over almost casually, just so comfortable.

1st shot on target I think - took them 117 minutes.Yes get in Marseille!!
Yep, exactly.I think with me it's 50 years of seeing Arsenal snatch a spunky something in the 98th minute with a large touch of controversy that kept me in a mild state of anguish.
Don’t say anything lads, remember you’re live!
Always been rumours about how Wenger likes the back door optionI reckon Arse went for the back door option as well
