If Arse win the Europa do they take the team finishing 4th s spot in the CL?

No. Five English teams go into the CL. Same as this year.

[Jairzinho]

Sort it out Lazio. Going out on away goals as it stands.

 

Some great football this week.

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

Come on CSKA. Do it for Putin.

[aRdja]

Watching the Leipzig and Marseille game, plenty of goals.. but the quality of football on show is pretty poor IMO.

[polymerpunkah]

Arse get one back, very good goal, to be fair.

 

CSKA now need two to take it to extra time.

 

76 minutes in.

[Captain Turdseye]

Booo

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Volley.

[aRdja]

Bruma is a brutal footballer.

[Harry Squatter]

Don't want Arsenal winning the Europa League and getting back in the Champions League the massive shithouses. They always go out in the last 16 anyway.

[A_S]

So is Primeira Liga still 'bottom of the Championship' standard when the 3rd place team can push one of the very best teams in Europe over 2 legs? You know, like the narrative suggested after Liverpool wiped the floor with Porto.

[Red House]

Said it after the Dortmund game but this Salzburg team is definitely one to keep an eye on. Seen we've been linked to Berisha.

[Jairzinho]

Liverpool/Marseille double still alive.

 

My word.

[Aventus]

If Arse win the Europa do they take the team finishing 4th s spot in the CL?

Only if we win the champions league aswell as finishing outside the top 4 ourselves.

[A_S]

55 goals across 16 quarter final ties in Europe. That's got to be close to a record.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Doesn't have to have been played to you by another player. If like Neves you flick the ball up and hit it before it bounces, it's still a volley. Agree with you about what a half-volley is.

Trumo knows.

 

Volley-deniers are worse than no-beaners.

[3 Stacks]

Niko Kovac will be the Bayern manager next season. 

[A_S]

Is Khedira almost jostling Buffon towards Oliver, even accidentally? It's not like he went full Ederson on him, but maybe he should have. 

 

Bumping into a ref in amongst a huddle of players = straight red

 

Running 30 yards to deliberately and repeatedly push a player in the chest = a single yellow

 

Apparently

I fear this will happen. Wenger knows he is not getting top 4 and entry into the CL that way. May as well concentrate on winning 3 more games in Europe to achieve that. Worth the gamble after all.

[Heinze]

Haha

 

There was one moment where one of the commentators was saying that CSKA was the worst team to play at the Emirates and Alexi Lalas (some yank cunt ex footballer) responded by saying "other than Arsenal".

[Jay86]

Take it half of you have never played a proper game of heads and volls. That’s not a volley and you’d have had to go in if you claimed that, it bounced!

[Jose Jones]

It didn't bounce after he flicked it up to himself though did it?

Some of you sick puppies probably have half volleys on your fry-ups.

[WhiskeyJar]

Arsenal got Athletico
