While I'm watching this game, I just keep thinking about all the players who Arsenal aren't able to call on: Big Gabi, Concerned Gabi, Kai Havertz, Tomiyasu, Calafiori. It's not just who's available today. It's who might have been available during the week so that other players could have a rest.

Everything in this game has been such fine margins. Maybe a slightly better or slightly more rested player would have been enough to make the difference.

OTOH, even without reinforcements, next season should go so much better as long as there isn't another injury crisis. And "so much better" than finishing second (hopefully) and making the CL semifinals... That's promising.

[–] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Can't discount the fact that we really need more attacking options, which the board really failed to deliver on in the middle of an injury crisis. I'm not sure if this is because our director of football decided to up and leave in the middle of the season, and we are just waiting for the new guy to come in to implement their plans. Rotation has always been an issue, even if players were healthy...modern day managers including Mikel rely on really the same few players because of such a rigid system they play.

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

ok we need to sub lewis-skelly off and put cala or tierney on

[–] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah why aren't we subbing fresh legs? That's one thing I like to criticize about mikel is why not make changes. It has to be at the same minute mark every time

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

It just seems like Arsenal is outplaying PSG, but PSG is getting all the luck.

It sure is different having Merino as #9, Rice as left 8 and Partey at #6 though. Imagine if Arsenal had enough depth that a single suspension didn't disrupt the entire team.

[–] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.funami.tech 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

It's do or die time.

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

RICE YOU LEGEND. GOOD TACKLE.

Myles is not ready for this man.

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

one must wonder how many goals we'd have scored with Ollie Watkins up there.

[–] sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm so confused. WTF are we doing? Why are we trying to cross to no one? Why can't Saka beat anyone and why doesn't he even have a shot on target? It's nowhere near good enough

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago (14 children)

Saka is repeatedly beating people, but PSG is sitting very deep so as soon as Saka beats one person there's another one in his way.

SAKA NO YOU NEED TO GET IT THERE

[–] VirgilMastercard@reddthat.com 3 points 1 month ago

Getting that familiar sinking feeling like we're just not going to score at all in this game. Banging on the door but just can't break it down.

[–] VirgilMastercard@reddthat.com 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And off goes the game. Transfers to look forward to now.

[–] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Look i care about the conclave but couldn't it just have been a ticker scroll?

[–] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I haven't been nervous all season for a match until today...

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

These are the nights we dreamt of. Let's fucking win it.
