Who do we want? I’m praying @Rex Stone boys Atleti preoccupy themselves with Man City. We don’t want any business with them but I’ll be honest XL Bully Mik vs XL Bully Diego would definitely be a tasty affair

Which one? Anyone moral victory where they were even trying cos they were up on aggregate?
This guy, should have , called it a day . After being, used like a rag doll by Eder in the Euro 2016 final ffs.No Koscielny this time around to basically hand them the tie.
Bayern were use to playing clowns like Koscielny and Mustafi or slugs like Mertesacker. They won’t know what hit them with Saliba and Gabriel with midfielders that actually help in defence. Really should beat them we’re better.
It shows me how low Arsenal standards are for players since he’s rated so highly.This guy, should have , called it a day . After being, used like a rag doll by Eder in the Euro 2016 final ffs.
Most of Kos' errors came 2016 and on, when his pace was going and the team was falling about... before that he was ridiculously solid considering how we played defensively in the 2010s.
He left poorly (something I blame more on Raul for going back on a promise to left Laurent leave) but overall a very fine servant to Arsenal football club.
Helped us win 3 trophies, more than I can say about our current bunch
Rauls fault he did that ****ing googly eye thing?He left poorly (something I blame more on Raul for going back on a promise to left Laurent leave) but overall a very fine servant to Arsenal football club.
I know this is a dig at me no matter how you dress it up...you f*cking tw*t
called his own family alcoholics in an interview. Given how you're online beefing your dad it makes sense you still rate him
Don't blame me for your guilty conscience, mate
They concede many chances and leak goals, it should be Arsenal vs Arsenal UCL heritage as we have a huge mental block in this competition. In reality if Arsenal are mentally focused we should be slapping this Bayern team home and away, I am more confident Away from home then at the Emirates after watching us these last two seasons. Hopefully we don't get another Porto away game of no shots on target.
Tel, Musiala and Muller are players we should be watching out as the first two are dynamic dribblers and Muller has a great football brain and is experienced UCL vet, Kane dives and doesn't score much open play goals vs Gabriel if you think about it.
Maybe Gnabry too since he tends to turn up for Bayern in the 2nd half of the season unlike Sane.
Really Kos showed us who he was in his first season ffs.
Should’ve never been forgiven for that League Cup final calamity.
If not for the sporadic errors, he could probably be called the best pure defender in the world at his peak. But yeah, errors are too important in that position.Tbf to Kos he did get a lot better and became a very good defender although nowhere near world class.
When was the last time we had a good away performance in Europe? Four away matches this season, one win vs the worst Sevilla side ever, one draw and two losses. There's 0% chance we're slapping Bayern away from home.They concede many chances and leak goals, it should be Arsenal vs Arsenal UCL heritage as we have a huge mental block in this competition.

To me it looks like Arteta has a bit different approach for European games, a more pragmatic one. Play for a minimum draw, but try to nick in a goal or two. Which is wise in my opinion.When was the last time we had a good away performance in Europe? Four away matches this season, one win vs the worst Sevilla side ever, one draw and two losses.

I don't disagree with what you said and I do believe we can win there. There's however nothing to assume we'd slap or dominate them especially not at their ground.To me it looks like Arteta has a bit different approach for European games, a more pragmatic one.

Bayern is a great team no matter their reputation this season. The hope especially in the away game lies in that Arteta hasn't faced such an opponent yet.
Arsenal has usually been the favourite to win, and at Allianz Bayern likely won't just let Arsenal have the ball. Or what do you think, does Tuchel dare to do such a tactic at home?
So what is different, is that Bayern's defence has made mistakes this season, and no way I rate Dier as Bayern level starting CB even if he starts there now. Arteta can ruin them in transition compared to the other opponents who let Arsenal have the ball.
Bayern wasn't very impressive in the group phase matches. In 6 games they had 12-6 goals for and against.
