UEL Round of 32 2nd Leg: Arsenal (1) v Benfica (1) | Thursday February 25 | KO: 17:55 UTC | BT Sport

[AberGooner]

Once we went 1-o up tonight we where asking for trouble with how negative we became. That's on Arteta as I can only presume that's part of his tactics. Of course from their a silly error and great free kick and we are up **** creek again. Made this a lot harder than it should have been. Thank **** Benfica are terrible.

Who’s fault would that be then you derp

The fixture list?

Arteta has done a number on you mate.

Reduced to rubbing it in people’s faces after that 180 minute slog. The bar gets ever lower.

It looks to me like he's done a number on you. "Fans" upset that Arsenal win and remain in the competition because they dislike him so much.

No one is rubbing it in your faces. It's just almost unbearable to see "fans" cheer against their team. Like.... somehow you think us doing worse will make us do better faster. Which has never happened.

Arteta has done a number on me?!

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

Arsenal just won a hugely important European knockout game in dramatic circumstances and you people are furious / upset? And I’m the one he’s done a number on?!

Absolute state of it. Am I still posting on an Arsenal forum?

You are posting on an Arsenal forum, only not everyone is as short-term oriented as you appear to be. We are all pleased with the result, that goes without saying on an Arsenal fan forum.

So how would you have handled a loss? Would you even have bothered watching the remaining league games?

Up the Gunners y Nada Mas

Glad we got there in the end

 

[say yes]

Benfica had 4 shots total on target in both legs ffs.

Arteta has done a number on you @yousif_arsenal !!

Benifica absolutely bossed us! SO ANGRY they couldn’t finish Mikel off. Ruined my week!

 

[freeglennhelder2]

As Keown said. Big shout out to Leno for not getting sent off!

 

[Beksl]

This result feels like when my wife on leathery Saturdays put the keys of my handcuffs on the table, 2.5 meters away from me!

This result feels like when I logged back to AM after a few weeks and see your friendly face that still isn't a trusted member.

If you think cheering against Arsenal and us getting knocked out of the EL is good for our long-term, I hope you never become CEO of a company I am invested in.

It just happened to Chelsea. And it was an actual, proper club legend, too. Pay attention.

I didn't cheer for us to lose today. Arteta is in the safe zone for this season.

I don't ever want Arteta to smile. I HATE IT. I even want us to lose so he doesn't smile.

 

[say yes]

Trusted members getting angry at people for being happy Arsenal won.

Absolute peak Arsenal-mania.

How long until I get my first death threat from a mod @hydrofluoric acid ?

 

[Ind0Gunnerz]

There are still some weak teams in the next stage.. but knowing our luck, likely we will draw a tough one

Would never happen under raul and emery. Club is finished!

Yo I’m as happy we’re through as the next man but to pretend like that wasn’t an absolute slog is mental stuff.

Borderline delusional bro.

@American_Gooner
Told you Aubemeyang would get a brace bro. Top, top quality

...

I'm leaving. I'm so angry, I need to go hug someone.

 

[Finesse]

Credit to Auba. If he finished like this a week ago we would never be here. Willian played excellent in his lil cameo. This team needs games like this and moments like this to build their belief and go over the line. It was calling for some kept players to take charge.

 

[Hleb's Sirush]

Those who knock Aubameyang... wonder who else would have got two goals to save the show.

He literally had 3 chances and put them all away (one was disallowed) but when he misses a chance again some people have the cheek to moan at him. One of the few players in our team who consistently performs as one of the league's best in his position.
