Look at the intensity Atletico played in this game. That's how you win in CL as well. When was the last time we saw that much hunger from Barcelona? maybe one game vs PSG.. Otherwise we don't have the hunger.

You won't even even 1/2 of that intensity from Barca in a European competition these days.

Look at Griezmann's performance today, didn't score, but won MOTM performance just due to his intensity, pressing and running.

Like I said in the Griezmann thread, his effort today >>>> the entire Barca team in Rome.

Arsenal play some nice on the eye football, not sure why you find that so funny. fans stopped going to the stadium most likely due to the ticket prices.

well if ticket prices were a problem, people would've stopped long back..the truth is arsenal have been dire for quite a while now, capitulating to not just the top teams but also to the bottom teams..hence the fan discontent and protest as well asking wenger to go ....and the truth is wenger has in general over stayed his welcome for a top team which arsenal should be but aren't for quite a few years thanks to not just the owners but also the coach...

they have the highest prices in the PL iirc. its likely the lack of silverware thats causing the exodus. agree Wenger should be gone, possibly 3-4 years ago.

WEll ticket prices also would've made arsenal fans quit a long time ago..its been quite high for a while now..

plus corection..wenger's tactics have been outdated for around 7-10 years now ..he would've gone way back had he managed some other club :D

I called it months back that Arsenal would not win this competition if they met Atletico.

maybe but they were in the CL and Wenger was guaranteeing top 4 saving his ass. as soon as that diminished the ticket prices should of been dropped. imagine paying the highest fee in the country to watch a top 6 team playing in the Europa league :lol:

okay okay 7-10 years, we can all agree the guy should be long gone :cheers:

anyways i guess this means Madrid vs Atleti in the super cup

Congrats to Marseille for going to the final. Atlético shoudn‘t have too much problems winning it, though.

Everyone knew that Arsenal didnt stand much of a chance against Atletico over two legs, they needed to avoid them until the final, and then maybe luck past them in one game.
