Champions League Final 2026 | Sat 30th May | Paris Saint-Germain v Arsenal

24.7% possession, not even 200 completed passes... Is that really a good effort? Feel like you'd have wanted to make a better showing of yourselves than that.
We were playing PSG and for all their possession it wasn't like they had a ton of chances. If we'd gone toe to toe we'd have been ripped apart. We didn't lose the match (obviously apart from pens which is a lottery) so if it had gone the other way and footballers paid £200k+ a week actually manage to hit the fucking target from 12 yards then the dastardly plan might have worked.

I'd imagine heavy investment in the summer plus we are guaranteed CWC qualification unless 2 different PL sides win the CL in the next couple of years and neither of them is Arsenal or City (the 2 PL sides with the highest English coefficients).
 
The CS game in Cardiff I must admit I was not looking forward to as their fanbase is unbearable.....I am looking forward to it now.

Eze went too soon re his bottlers comment and it has come back on him, should have stayed humble.

Gabriel providing the other miss was just wonderful, told my lads at HT that he will miss a penalty as he's an arrogant prick.
 
Some teams call winning the community shield a trophy? So the “bottlers” ain’t even the best team in London ‘cos palace have won two trophy’s as apposed too the bottlers single effort, “2nd again ole ole “ :)
 
Just to point out our new manager is the only man to outplay and take apart this PSG team. I know it was a club world cup but he still did it
True, I know it's easy to deride that competition, but PSG beat Bayern and destroyed Madrid on the way to the final against the Chavs, so they did take it seriously.
 
One of their prime attacking talents Saka completed only 4 passes during an entire 120minute long game. What a pathetic side they are, possibly the worst showing in a CL ever?
 
I think it says everything that we’ve just had, by our usual standards, a season of bang average performances, yet we still ended up with more trophies than any other side in the country.

Your lot have just put a gargantuan effort in yet still needed 250 set pieces, shithousing for half an hour every week and a helping hand from the officials every week to limp over the line with 85 points. You’ve won a poor league and will not be considered a great side or remembered by anyone worth their salt.

Your performance tonight was pathetic. It was like watching a league one side coming to the Etihad in the fa cup and sitting with 11 behind the ball and hoping to blag something from the game. You looked completely out of your depth and it showed with your 2 shots on target.

You’ve a long way to go to be even thinking about trebles.
Excellent post.

They don't have the mentality. Celebrating throw ins and corner with 10 matches to play tells you everything about them, absolutely desperation
