Champions League 2024-25

Arsenal had two really big chances. Gotta capitalize on those at home.

But from what we have seen today, PSG can only mantain their intensity for 30 minutes or so. After that they fell back and Arsenal couldn't do anything because of their ineptness and Saka ballhoging in the final third.

 

[serghei]

Yeah, PSG showed good discipline in the pressing area. Didn't gave Arsenal any easy chances, and Arsenal just lack players with top technical quality in small spaces.

PSG didnt have control of the game in that second half.

They got some chances as Arsenal had to commit but Arsenal were the better team up until final third.

 

[Birdy]

Arsenal missed 2 big ones, PSG missed 2 big ones

A draw would have been fair

 

[te amo barca]

Arsenal just lack attacking quality. Martinelli and Trossard are not elite players. They are still midtable EPL level players. Merino, as a striker, is decent but not a natural threat. Only Saka is world-class in that front three. They need some serious acquisitions.

 

[malvolio]

This PSG is a scary side. Give no room to breathe. The way they were pressing and closing down spaces into added time.

They prone to brain farts, like any other team. Donnaruma can be world-class tonight and a clown tomorrow. Should be a cracker of a final if we meet them.

PSG pressing and midfield rotations impressed me today.

No idea who is playing DM for them, because everyone was there.

Well I do, but the point remains

Nobody can press on the entire pitch for 90 mins. PSG dropped their lines quite deep, but applied pressure in the last 30m well.

 

[mc_lovin]

Saka is world-class

That's generous.

 

[JamDav1982]

Arsenal had a front two of fucking Trossard and Odegaard more or less.

PSG were not great.

 

[Horatio]

They prone to brain farts, like any other team. Donnaruma can be world-class tonight and a clown tomorrow. Should be a cracker of a final if we meet them.

donnarumma still due a disasterclass.

Could happen against us

 

[M3ls]

I almost fell asleep in the second half...

PSG didn't really show anything after the 30th minute, except for moments where there were probably offsides.

And Arsenal played as if they were winning the match.

 

[FCBfan22]

Arsenal's play in the final third kinda reminds me of a mid-tier national team. Slow passing, ballhoging and general unawareness what your teammate that has the ball is capable of and might do.

 

[Givenchy]

Arsenal aren't coming back into this tie. Without a striker and relying on set pieces at this level isn't going to cut it, Madrid were just abysmal.
