Only after extra-time.

So if it stays as is it'll go to ET.

WHAT

already two goals`?

by Jay29 Wed Jan 24, 2018 8:29 pm

Can already tell we've got our tactics wrong tonight.

3-4-3 worked so well against Chelsea for us because our front three could press onto their back three and stop them playing out.

Tonight, Iwobi is tracking Moses, leaving only Ozil and Lacazette against their back three. Chelsea finding it far easier to play out and dominate the ball.

That means only goals scored after ET count then, right? Not like, if it stays like this it goes to ET, then if it's still 1-1 after ET, Chelsea win (because they scored an away goal previously in the game)

If it's still 1-1 after ET Chelsea go through on away goals.

Wilshere is back

Can't believe Chelsea haven't battered us tbh. Horror show performance from us.

Wenger's gotten his set-up all wrong. Lop-sided defensive shape, and midfielders constantly moving away from the ball in possession.

Chelsea just need to line midfielders across the halfway line to stop us playing.

5 midfielders but getting outplayed by Bakayoko and Kante

Saw him lay a nice ball to put Ozil through and I'm jumping on the hype train, get discount tickets anyway as RG is driving it so why not

Xhaka is awful lmao.

Is it me or did Lacazette lose a solid 8-10 points of pace when he left Ligue 1? legit thought he was an 85 pace player but he seems closer to 75.

by CBarca Wed Jan 24, 2018 9:20 pm

Never seen luck like this before Laughing

Always knew Xhaka was the new Neil Webb.

by Jay29 Wed Jan 24, 2018 9:21 pm

Both our goals tonight were works of art :coffee:

Good thing for Arsenal fans is that the Haribo cup final is played before the end of the season so Wenger won't be able to save his job by winning a meh trophy after finishing outside the top 4 again this season
