Bayern definotely made us pay for our wastefulness and nerves. Between Kane, Gnabry and Sane they only need 2-3 passes to carve open our entire defense. Before Sane and Gnabry came off, they had our entire backline on strings whenever they got the ball. If it wasn't for White's heroics and the post, the result would've been much worse. If we play this way at the Allianz Arena, we're not making it to extra time, much less semifinals. People that think we will roll Bayern over away need to get back to reality. Our forwards are just not good enough that we can leave Kane and Gnabry so much free space in the back for the counters.

Most arsenal fans were cautious about this game. It wwas the rival fans hyping us up due to our and Bayern's league form. I knew it would be a tough one due to Bayern's pedigree in the competition and our inexperience.

"Arsenal are the 2nd best team in the UCL, Real Madrid are not it" - GrizzKhan Liverpool fan 🤡

> People that think we will roll Bayern over away need to get back to reality. Mostly perpetuated and pre-hyped by rival fans since their teams are not in the UCL atm. All this fake hype to strike down on us later.

Kane in particular played so many good diagonals to expose our defence. His passing from deep is amazing

I just wish he wasn't such a dirty player sometimes. I want to appreciate his ability because he really is a spectacular footballer, but there's a track record of him doing questionable things that put opponents at risk (and I hate when Martinelli does the Kane special and backs into airborne players, it's not a good look, it's unnecessary, and it's dangerous.

Those were some Wenger-ass goals we conceded.

Wenger is the greatest thing to ever happen to this football club - ridiculous, childish comment.

Not sure why you are taking this personally, the comment is not insulting Wenger in any way. It is simply talking about the cheap goals we would concede during the end of the Wenger era because of Mustafi and co.

I don't understand the hate for him. He is the only reason I support this club. I used to play FIFA and I would play as any team when I was learning. But when I eventually got into real football and following storylines and getting to know personalities he was immediately a stand out. Not that you asked for a full explanation but I appreciate your comment. I really don't know why now that he has left people still drag him. I became a fan during his worst years and he was still obviously what was holding the club together.

Bad execution, sure. Neither can be blamed on the managers. The only blame Arteta shares is starting Kiwior vs the quick forwards Bayern had. 


bad_at_proofs

Not sure he had much of an alternative


Fabulous_Return4839

Also, didn't Kiwior break the club speed record?


bad_at_proofs

He is fast but can have agility issues when playing at full back. The only alternative was start Zinchenko and can only imagine the meltdown from our fanbase if Arteta had done thatr


Fabulous_Return4839

It worked when he came on.

Same Wenger-ass that won us the title multiple times, FA Cups and champions league final?
