Win Arsenal 4 - 2 Leicester City | Saturday 13th August 2022 | KO: 15:00 BST

Spirit BOMB to these Foxes. Same team as below:





Post match, Teta needs to make A-M happy and bring out the stash of Snickers & Twix for their boy Youri Michelin as a sweetener:

Got a feeling that Gabby Jesus is going to cook in this one.

I’ll say 3-0

If we had knocked Barcelona out, we could’ve won it that season and gotten Wenger that elusive CL. RVP was fit and firing, Walcott was doing well and if Cesc/Nasri’s fitness could’ve been managed anything was possible.

Surely they would’ve handled Shakhtar in the QF after beating them “on aggregate” in the group stages. A semi-final against Real Madrid would have been tough but I would’ve backed the team to get though. Then a Wembley final against a United team we played off the park a few weeks earlier at the Emirates. Huge what if moment in Wenger’s career.

I don't know.

Our young team struggled to cope with ending the trophy drought pressure against Birmingham in the cup final, can't see them keeping their composure against a prime Jose Madrid in the semi or a United team that had been in 3 of the past 4 Champions League finals.

zinchenko needs to inherit xhaka’s starting place in the team, starting from now… kt was doing fine

 

[Farzad Stoned]

I probably can’t watch match so I’ll rely on AMs astute play by play for right now

 

[BigPoppaPump]

Embarrassing.

Someone had to say it.

Doing a public service if anything…

@A__G coming out of posting retirement with a top bins finish.

He dusted off his 1999 Predators for that strike.

This stuff is fascinating to think about imo. Imagine we win the CL in 2011, no way Cesc and Nasri push to leave. The latter and RVP probably sign new contracts, then who knows what happens in that window. Does Arteta still come in, but as a Wilshere replacement rather than Cesc? Maybe we get Hazard to backup Nasri instead of Gervinho.

That one red card for RVP changed the entire course of recent history.

 

[Riou]

Would have backed the 2015 team more to maybe do something, if Giroud didn't **** up v Monaco, than the 2011 one...the balance just wasn't in that side, even if the attacking play was amazing.

Feel our real chance to win the Champions League, was in the 00s anyway.

 

[OnlyOne]

Watching the City game.

I really need an eye rolling emoji reaction for posts like those.

I’d be giving this game a miss if I was in Tulum rn.

Knocking out a prime Barca would’ve given them a huge boost. Plus if we didn’t lose at Nou Camp, we may have gone to OT in the FA Cup in a better frame of mind and not lost to a team with 7 defenders on the pitch.

Too early the party girls don’t come poolside at 900am don’t worry I know where my priorities lie but you are right

Nobody cares, Tielmans ain’t all that.

Will basically be another Giroud > Lacazette where we pay more for a downgrade on Xhaka.

 

[Hunta]

Don’t think our lads will like the heat.

3-1 Leicester ffs.

Bringing up a lot of bad memories. I’m lucky I have terrible football memory.

It’s weird I remember all the low times of the peak days but the Emirates era is cloudy.

Refreshing insight ngl it feels like a breath of fresh air.

And, that first yellow came in such embarrassing match fixing from the refs fashion. I'm still angry.
