If you haven’t seen it already AFTV is great viewing tonight. The post match interview outside the Emirates is comedy gold.
If you could harness the delusion there as a power source north London wouldn't need to trouble the National Grid.

We really need to stop being slow out the traps . I'm not sure if it's by design though.

Fantastic point in the end .

When did we last come from 2 down away vs a "Sky6" side to get anything , you'd be going back decades , may not have ever happened .

Shout out to Bogarde great performance, Unai clearly likes him.

Our two goals were also both masterpieces, a lovely diving header and a well controlled volley , both from fantastic crosses .

Only downside the injury to Onana and the worryingly poor performance from Maatsen.

United with Coutinho’ debut wasn’t that long ago (but yes, they’re few and far between - we’re good at giving them up though!)
That was at Villa Park , I said away , possibly decades ago , if ever .

That’ll teach me for skim reading and trying to be a smart arse 🤣🤣

Got to say, looking back at the 2 goals we conceded, Emi was very poor for both of them.

Not sure I see that. They’re both from close range and if it doesn’t hit him in exactly the right place he’s never stopping them.

Hasn't been at his best this season in all honesty.

Just looking at the table and our goal difference is f**king awful. It's all so tight points wise this season that it could really make a difference in the end. A couple of thrashings wouldn't go astray in the coming weeks.

Those Digne and Cash crosses were pure filth. We have the best goalkeeper in the world.

Pretty sure we discussed (last season) how often goal difference is a decider when it comes to CL qualification.

Spoiler for Hiden:
Not often.

Yes you are right, but its goals conceded that’s the problem.

We obsess with goal difference every year and it hardly ever makes a difference. I do like correcting the mathematically-challenged who like to insist that it's "worth a point", though.

Can anyone tell me what happened with Cash? He seemed to end up in a pile in the floor off the ball and needed treatment for a bleeding mouth.

Digne has been one of our players of the season , we looked much better once he was on . Maatsen had a troubling 45 mins .

Impressive comeback despite playing against 12 men & the 5th official Arteta. The sense of entitlement from those fuckers is nauseous.

When the ball comes into the box we need to attack the ball instead of waiting. Tielemans was man of the match. Bogarde there's a player in there & bringing him on in a game like that is a big indication that Unai thinks so too.

While it wasn’t a win like last season ultimately them throwing away two points could have the same impact. That once again Unai Emery, the man so many of them still ridicule, has fucked them over, the massively entitled tarquins in royal fashion in their bid for a title.
