Arsenal v PSG

Re: Arsenal v PSG

I dread to think what sort of football Arteta would get a side full of ordinary players to play if he was ever in charge of an EFL team. I didn’t think PSG were up to much on the night, but they should have won it without the need to go to penalties or even extra time.

Arsenal are very good at what they do. Unfortunately, nobody wants to watch that shyte.

Arteta would probably employ the same style and tactics if he was at an EFL team with ordinary players, i'm pretty sure of that. Isn't he one of the 'Guru' managers, even though his football (apparently) is shit?

Yet probably everybody on this thread, including you did watch it. ??

It was still interesting to see two teams with 100% opposite football philosophies face each other. I couldn't watch it every week though!

I agree. PSG were very average and bereft of ideas.

That would be doing Arsenal a disservice, it takes a lot of hard work and commitment to turn a team into a modern day Wimbledon.

I like him, he seems to be a nice person, I just disagree with his football philosophy.

Re: Arsenal v PSG

I was not able to watch it, or even listen on the radio. However I was keeping up to date with the live text and live match stats on the BBC and it seemed, to me, looking at the stats, how very similar it was to quite a lot of games involving the City this last season. We were up against a lot of teams whoÂ’s only intention was to not concede, and it was made even harder if one of those teams managed to score the first goal.

However, as frustrating as it was at times, City played entertaining football and as a lot of the opposition teams were mostly filled with limited, but honest professionals, we mostly won, which made it all good.

If the same scenario is played out next season, it may be harder to break that type of opposition down. I am looking forward to seeing the improvement in our style that BBM surely would identify we need.

Except of course their 60,000 in the Emirates & the 100,000+ on their ST waiting list (who have to pay to be on the waiting list). My cousins have 8-10 ST which they’ve had since the 70s are constantly under pressure to sell theirs. Less than 1% on the waiting list got STs this year.

They'd probably watch paint dry too if it said Arsenal on the tin
