I'll admit Arsenal are a very good side, i can see them challenging for the title for sure next season and in Europe. Just hope they continue to miss out.

Challenging, maybe, but not seriously.
They have reached their full potential this season under Arty IMHO.

Without FFP, NUFC would have taken their spot in the Top 4.

I still think that's not improbable this season :)

I'm not so sure, i'd like that to be the case but they have a lot of quality in that side, Rice and Partey are one of the strongest duos in midfield there is and seem to be improving, i really rate Martinelli, Saka is class and defensively strong - they could have scored 4 or 5 last night

Points total has gone down and they’re scoring less goals. The manager is to blame with his negative tactics

Rice has had a good season, but Ødegaard is a shadow of the player he was a couple of years ago. Martinelli is on course for fewer league goals over the last TWO seasons combined than he managed in 22/23. Their attacking potency is in steep decline and that's why they've drawn too many games

FFS, could have, would have, should have.. they didn't though did they.! A 2 legged tie and they lost both legs, that's not unlucky that's not good enough. Fool.

Trust me I celebrated PSG’s win and never ever want Arsenal to win anything ever, but I always play fair and they have a very good side that look one of the best in the world at the moment , I’m hoping that defeat might set them back.

Exactly! You don't become the best team in the CL or even the team that wins it by anything other than the goals you score and the goals you don't concede. Rice and Partey were not strong enough to prevent PSG scoring 3 and could only help the Gooners to score one. Rice was culpable for one last night. Donnarumma made several good saves and Arsenal's forward line managed only one goal whereas PSG managed two from midfield. None of this was good luck for PSG or bad luck for Arsenal - it's simply that PSG were better at those things required to win matches. Arsenal were not the best team in the tournament when it mattered, last night. Whether they ever have been is a matter for debate anyway.

Incredibly big ask for them to actually win title , Man City will be much better , Liverpool will still be strong and Chelsea will also likely be contenders- Arsenal I feel will be competing again and hopefully missing out again.

Anyone familiar with GAA will (maybe) appreciate that!

Yep. A county with a strong gaelic football tradition, yet their last All Ireland title (the holy grail in gaelic football) came in 1951. I think they hold the record for the longest losing run of finals. 10 of them!

Both my parents are from Mayo; my brothers follow GAA and end up being disappointed every year.

Eleven finals lost since the ‘curse’ of 1951.

I could have won the lottery but I didn't..
There is a reason we call them Bridesmaid FC
Saka will improve if he gets that inner ear problem sorted..must be hard trying to play football but going dizzy when you see the penalty area or feel the pressure of an opponent nearby
