“Young Arsenal team” narrative being wheeled out by the commentator now, they’ve spent a fortune mate.
They have but they're also quite inexperienced when it comes to this stage of the CL.

Declan Rice is like this bloke I now play 5 a side with, wins the ball so well and cannot get it off his big gangly legs/body, very effective player

Are Madrid playing their diamond tonight?

Out of possession they look like a flat 4-4-2 with Bellingham and VJ pressing up top but in possession I can’t actually work it out and Bellingham is ofc not a striker so I’m a bit confused by it
Who knows, they are all in their own 16 yard box.

Very slow and one paced from Arsenal. Bayern are struggling to get through Arsenal but when they do they are hitting them at pace.

I'd love to see one of these set pieces land on Dier or Kane's head.

Of course the excuses will come. Virtually every fucking team in the league is young for goodness sake. Their season is on the cusp of being about as relevant as ours this year.

And yet half of our fans in here never saw what he provided to the team.
It was also criminal how he was ignored by England managers because they were too busy trying to cram Gerrard, Lampard and Scholes into one midfield, instead of picking players that could work together.
Bang on mate. And 100% with England.

Carrick alongside scholes and or Lampard / Gerard' would have been a perfect cm.

One of my all time best cms at spurs.

Real are just sooooo good at game management in big CL ties.

Edit: I disown this post.
