Aye, noticed it as soon as the draw was made.
UCL Round of 16 - First Legs - Feb 18 - 26
- Thread starter Ronaldo's Mum Eh?
- Start date
Given the circumstances, Arsenal did reasonably well tonight. Their goalkeeper will always be prone to that kind of recklessness, Ozil was terrible and Sanogo was understandably naive. They did very well to counter that and keep themselves in the tie - up until that Muller goal, at least.
UL arse. Wenger fecked up a bit by keeping Ozil on and not playing Giroud.
How did Ozil finish that game?
there is a stat in the CL that pretty much suggests that if you lose at home in the 1st leg 99% of the time you go out.
A couple of years ago when I heard the stat it was like only 2 times ever.
Perhaps someone knows it exactly?
@Damien ?
yeah I dont do betting and dont understand odds most of the times. That explains why I thought that
Can I just say that that Bayern kit is majestic.
Is Wenger trying to build Ozil's stamina up to the detriment of the team or something? He was fecking gash and couldn't run for the last 40 minutes. Weird.
Absolutely. They, if anything, really do embody what should be identified as "the United way." That is kind of football we used to play, and that is exactly what we must attempt to resemble. Pace on the wings, directness, attacking freedom and some good passing football.
The stars look lopsided.
Never mind then
They will suffer the same inevitable fate as City after conceding that late goal. Credit to them though, like you said, they've done well considering the circumstances and had Ozil scored that penalty it would have put a completely different complexion on the game.
From Arsenal's perspective I'd be far more frustrated with Wenger than the players. How Ozil remained on the pitch was a mystery, culpable for plenty of Bayern's chances down their right-hand side.
I don't know if they'll win the same trophies of last season but their football has been great, best in Europe by some distance. It's not pointless passing at all, it's weird to think it so.
BBC: Bayern Munich made 863 passes in 90 minutes.
There was talk on the radio about Arsenal spending money on a statue for somewhere around the emirates. Someone phoned in to say there was no need because they have spent £50M on one last summer.
Cheers
Yep its a hell of a stat.
Out of the 4 games, Milan probably can do it but I doubt it.
I was sure I saw it right. Not only he's a fecking flop but as well he hates Arsene. Stay classy Wojtek.
Bayern have Kroos, Thiago, Martinez, the Schwein. We have Cleverley, Fellaini, Fletcher, Carrick.
They have Ribery, Robben, Gotze. We have Young, Valencia, Kagawa.
They have Lahm, Alaba. We have ??

Thought it was the ref he aimed it at?
How are you getting "He hates Arsene" from that?

Jesus. Baby Jesus
I'm watching the last 30 minutes of the Milan game and they look the better side, they might to it.
It's an amazing stat because a 1-0 home defeat can be overcome by 2-1. I can't believe its so hard.
We have Rooney, Van Persie, Mata, Januzaj, Rafael, Carrick, Jones, De Gea - we are not as bad as we have performed this season.
He's just been sent off by the ref... and walks over to Wenger and calls Wenger a wonkard?..
Come on.
Your post is ridiculous.
I think it was a red card, but Redknapp's reasoning for it it absolutely incredible."Is it a definite goal-scoring chance, Jamie?"
"Yes, of course it is, Robben controlled a similar ball against Dortmund last season. He's shown it before"
Yes, Jamie, what he did last season is completely relevant to this foul. He's a right prick.

And every time Ballack tries to speak Redknapp cuts him off with some inane shouted bollocks

So for another player (say Andy Carroll) it wouldn't have been a goalscoring chance ? These guys get paid to display their footballing ignorance ...
I dont know what Carragher is spitting. If the rules say obstructing a clear goalscoring chance leads to red then thats what has to happen regardless of whether it ruins the match for him or not. Cant just go around changing rules to please Carragher that twat
Muller looks like AVB without the patchy beard
Yeah!
Jamie Redknapp talking over other people has to one of lifes greatest annoyances.
Should have just said they had Pep who's already won titles and European cups, we have...
A referee... Graham Poll?.. said that, when calculating whether its a goal scoring oppertunity, you take the players speed into account. For example, Ronaldo taken out at the half way line from a through ball might be, but Emile Heskey might not (not the example he gave).
Was someone holding up a big mirror?
Pretty much. He's a moron.
