I can't remember too many matches where you go from the high of RVP's penalty to the low of Eboue all but ending that title challenge.
Good call, had sat down after celebrating Adebayor's equaliser just in time to see Kolo give away that pen.I raise you this game. The OG Liverpool heartbreaker.

I’d started typing out a text to all my Liverpool supporting mates and deleted it before I’d even finished

Ade celebrating on his own, instead of running to Theo immediately...ffs.
Kolo lightly brushes Babel, pen...Kuyt grabs Hleb's arm, play on
These last couple of pages... sheesh. Talk about needing a trigger warning.
I've mentioned this multiple times, but that '08 CL tie takes the cake for me. I had legitimate hopes for that CL campaign (although in hindsight we were probably nowhere near United and definitely not near Barca), whereas I never truly believed we would win the title in '11.
That Theo run I'll never forget, it was like it was in slow motion. Was shell shocked at how we just threw it all away minutes later, yet that's become the theme for us for the past decade plus.
Was that when Eboue was racially abused by the whole of the Emirates?
Dark time in our history.

Yep, just edited as you replied. I'd confused that season for the year after where we were thoroughly defeated by United in the SF, who in turn were thoroughly defeated by Barca in the final.We’d have faced Chelsea in the semi finals then Utd in the final I think.
Considering we won 1 game out of 5 against them that year we probably wouldn’t have ended up with the trophy but that quarter final was too cruel.
Two years after Paris as well.
So same line up? Same formation? Probably will drop Pepe for Saka. Same result? Hmm their front 3 against our back 3. This could be fun.
Even though it only lasted for 12 seconds, that Theo run was undoubtedly his peak as an Arsenal player.Even though it lasted for 30 seconds that Theo run was arguably my peak as an Arsenal fan.
AMN has to be at RB there otherwise that's what I want to see too. Cedric and Bellerin don't have the pace/agility to be dangerous.Probably.
And yet I see Saka and Pepe causing major problems for Robertson and TAA if they both start on each flank.
Arteta needs to weave AMN, Willock and to a lesser extent Nelson more and not just in cameo roles in random utility positions.
Just wish he’d try
————-Saka—Auba—-Pepe——-
——Ceballos—Xhaka—-Willock—-
Tierney—Luiz——Mustafi—-Cedric
——————Martinez——————-
We’re continually running out of steam in 2nd halves because we have no legs and can’t get up the pitch.

I am so done with all these wankers.
