UCL Last 16: Bayern Munich vs Arsenal FC

I can firmly predict that we will not be playing as bad as we did in the first leg.
Neither will Arsenal I guess, but I think we'll win this too.

That's very arsenalesque.
Better yet: 4-0 until minute 89 when Bayern scores and knocks Arsenal out.

Will be a boring Bayern 1-0 Arsenal

Some videos and observations to preview this highly anticipated game:



Robbie claims Arsenal are "on the worst form ever"

Ty thinks both the game and the preview are "pointless"

He also thinks Ozil "should have been dropped months ago"


Ty's team:


Ramsey as 10 because he is "mo better as a attacking player"

Robbie's team:


He's tempted to go with the team in brackets because as Arsenal need goals, "you need as many goalscorers on the pitch as possible".




Wenger is such a likeable, affable and smart person ffs.
Wish he was some friend of the family with whom I could converse about stuff over dinner every couple of weeks. He is paying.
On top of that, he's fond of me, so every now and then he gives me thousands of money to have the "freedom to play and express myself".

Also, the German part might be of interest:
Journalist: "In Germany we've heard you have the chance to extend for 2 years here at Arsenal, when will you sign?"
Wenger: "I have not made a decision yet and will wait a bit, how this finishes, how the season goes. I'm here now for 20 years, I have, I believe, built up this club, it's important then that we are always successful; that's why I'll take some time."
J: "When will the decision be made?"
W: "I don't know"
J: "Ok. But you still fancy being at Arsenal, or a new challenge, could you imagine that?"
W: "At the moment my focus is on the Bayern München game and therefore it's difficult for me to talk about this."

So that he has an offer for 2 years is confirmed now, I guess.

On another note, Mertesacker by now sounds like he has adapted a firmly MLE, Arsenal fan TV, way of speaking lmao
"I don't understand the question, onestly I don't, the manager, he has got like 25 options now, you know, it's up to us to show a different face tomorrow, fam, that is really somtin we a gonna demand, you know, we literally blew it away in the second half there, you know, that's what this club is about, it's not gonna be about one single player, blood"

Also, why does Merte talks like he's the manager
"I need to make sure that we train on a high level and be focused on our next opponents. I'm telling the players.."
Excuse me WHAT?


Müller to Ribery: "Number two is German.. number one is English, make it English then it's funny!"
Ribéry: "Nah I don't understand English"
Müller: "Yes (laughs)"

Ribéry has been in Munich for TEN years and still speaks German just barely passably lmao



minutes 7:30 and 8:15 to 9:20 lmao

also, "Mr Ancelotti can you please explain why is your team in such a good shape at the moment?"
German journalists
Embarrassing.

Match facts:

Having scored the away goal, a 4:0 win suffices for Arsenal to go through.
With this lengthy preview I have ensured the danger of an upset is real.

Bayern team to play Arsenal:

Neuer - Rafinha, Martinez, Hummels, Alaba - Alonso, Vidal, Thiago - Robben, Ribéry, Lewandowski

Ribery barely speaks passable french, it's a miracle that he even knows basic german.

Apologies to Troopz for calling him Ty

Mertesacker speaks like that because all our players are taught to speak like that. That's why Ramsey is so boring in his interviews. Walcott talks exactly like Wenger. Bellerin offered more Wengerism when he blamed our mentality in the first half against Liverpool, which is what Wenger also said.

They talk like that because Wenger controls even the way they speak to the media.

No Ozil no party imo

For once that's a good team lol

Wish it was for something

Still no Lucas Perez though, Wenger must really hate the guy-- nothing else makes sense. Also Monreal

In big games, Carlo is very predictable lmao.

Good god even my Deutsch is better than Ribery (though I am fluent now) as how is it being in Bayern for years he still has not given the respect of honouring the language? Smh

Ancelotti frauding it up so far.

Lol bayern dont really care. At worst they will lose 2-0 or 3-1

Battering Bayern lmao

Stonewall penalty denied

Should be 3-0 up

Will be 1-1 in a min

What PK? Delusional PK, Ref literally had to warn Walcott for a dive & even dive didn't matter because Alonso got 100% of the ball.

But Lewa missed a sitter into an empty goal almost which Robben setup.

Arsenal got 1 goal because of Neuer error. They will only score goals if we screw up & it looks like we are ! They are defending well like a relegation team & the counters are pretty decent !

Referee showed Koscielny a yellow and then a red


Corrupt officials ruining our comeback.

Bayern looks so average too. Can't wait till they get destroyed by a superior team like Juve or Madrid

Bayern doesn't give a damn about playing well against a poverty team like Arsenal when the 1st leg was 5-1. We need to conserve energy.

The official changed it to red on the insistence on the linesman as rules dictate a clear red in case of a clear goal scoring opportunity. Arsenal have been lucky, Lewa hitting the post, missing sitters & Neuer giving them a goal.

Edit - Costa (sub) with a phenomenal goal, 3-1. And now a Vidal goal, 4-1.

Overall - 9-2 over both legs - What a poverty team !

Another Vidal goal, phenomenal pass from Renato Sanches splitting open the defense, 5-1.

10-2 over both legs - Arsenal being handed their a** again!

Edit - Alexis Sanches is laughing & enjoying as Arsenal conceded the 5th goal, he realizes how big of a joke Arsenal are & is probably gone in the summer !

Premiere league football
We would win this league every year with 20 points difference

Like Tottenham, what's the point of Arsenal in the UCL?

Thanks for making it 10-2 and sparing us the 8-2 jokes. Really kind of you.

Sanchez's reaction after the 5th goal looked like me when Roman Reigns entered at 30.
