Ah well at least we have the Super cup to look forward to

 

[give it to gordon]

Over emotional arsenal ready to shoot their load early again and finish 4th.

They do seem very emotional, that cost them last season and already showing to much emotion.

Dont in the least be bothered we all start slow. Pep knows what it takes

 

[dhruvblue]

Unlucky but those penalties need some practice. It's not a new thing. We have been shite at them for a while

 

[Sheik Battle and Goal]

Arsenal.. bless

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

Looked the better team. Phil really should have sealed it for us. Never mind, it means f all. We lost last season and won the treble. Where the fuck did 8 minutes come from though - even with the new rules.

I keep thinking back on Phil’s missed goal in Chumps League final and if one of Inter’s efforts towards the end went it the treble…

Then I wake up in a cold sweat and phew relax.

 

[Stato]

This fucking sucks. Just like Chelsea with the champions league in 2021 we’ve given arsenal fans something to live off. They’re gonna be even more unbearable than they were before.

The way we presented ourselves in this penalty shootout was a disgrace. Seriously.

FFS calm down, it's a glorified friendly, not the Champions League.

 

[FatedBlue77]

Haha arsenal better be thanking us. We made it possible for them to even play this competition let alone win.

 

[coolcity]

Only question I have is where the hell did they get 8 minutes extra time from? Even under the new rules that's a hell of a stretch.

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Really disappointed.

Foden should have wrapped it up.

Took an absolutely wank goal to take it to penalties, too.

 

[Leeky]

Not arsed, but I would like to know how they got 8 minutes of injury time, 6 subs, 1 goal and 2 minutes at most for an injury to Odegard, just going to be another farce of an excuse this season

 

[Blue_Lightsaber]

Not the least bit bothered by it.
Hope Walker is okay and there are no other injuries.

Rodri needs to work on pens LOL! ;)

 

[bearcityblu]

Won't be many people leaving before end this year if you can get 12 mins injury time in a friendly. Not in the slightest bothered about losing this.

 

[bluemc1]

Little lad crying needs to toughen the fuck up lol

Is this satire?

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

By the way, if that second half merited 8 minutes, imagine what it'll be like when there's actual time-wasting.

We're going to see the first 20 minute injury time.

 

[DTKOAG]

Should of wrapped it up in normal time
But funny watching Arsenal celebrating like it’s a major trophy.
Embarrassing Arteta.

 

[citymad]

Ahh well. It is what it is.
Draw was probably the right overall result and Pens are a lottery.

Am I really arsed, not really.

Thought although they had moments we were totally in control of that game. At times we were toying with them. They had a lucky break and our penalties were shit. Let the weird fuckers have their day we’ll just spank them next time.

 

[wolviedinho]

Arsenal celebrate like a team that have won fuck all now for 20 seasons.

City just off another remarkable season. All about perspective.

Feel embarrassed for them. The underdog narrative for a team of their size is bizzare.

 

[blue whippet]

Annoying to lose but overall I thought we were the better team. Considering it was only our fourth pre season game we did ok. Pity about the goal we conceded, not much you can do about two deflections on a shot. Should have taken our chances better when we were one up.
We really need to practice penalties, both taking them and saving them.

 

[deano ou812]

Bar some poor/unlucky finishing we would have comfortably won that,the deflection was cruel but better happening in something like this than a cup final or crucial league game,we will move on and concentrate on bigger things ..
