Superb game. 2nd best CL semi ever.

When you put great players on the pitch, you will always have a chance of getting a great semi.

[D.Boon]

Great viewing. That Sommer has been the 2nd best keeper in the CL this season.

Yamal is one heck of a player. Needs to work on his finishing though.

Ideal Salah replacement

Nah a bad shout for “name written on the cup” merchants these

[Zoob]

Those were 2 amazing games. Don't know about anyone else, but I feel exhausted after watching that. And the save from Sommer near the end there was phenomenal.

We should probably pick him up now before anyone else realises his potential.

Right here and now these two can’t defend for a carrot

Arsenal dont play like Barca, they dont take risks in their attacking play, their attacking play is predicated on Saka from open play, and thats it. Thats why Inter struggled containing Barca but its not something that Arsenal can currently replicate, they arent going to change their patterns of play ans take risks and change their mentality to replicate Barca, if they play Inter.

Thats why the defending today is not an actual representation of Inters ability because usually they defend well, and there arent many sides who can play like Barca can. Its also why I brought up the previous game, Inter didnt struggle against Arsenal the last time they played like they did in these two games. That doesnt mean that they are going to beat them for sure, but Arsenal arent this untouchable side that Inter cant crack on their day

Inter also have pretty much the same side from their last CL final, that experience will count for something as well (same as it did for us in 2019)

Well, quite - I’ve seen Inter play twice in a week and they’ve been awful defensively both times.

They beat Arsenal last Nov 1-0 courtesy of a penalty. Arsenal were missing Rice (their best player by a mile this season) and Odegaard came on as a late sub after 12 weeks out injured. They were also denied a pretty clear pen.  It it was 7 months ago. Means little.

Moreover I just want Arsenal out so I can watch the final in peace
