Is she the ex keeper that does the Saturday show. Sadly saw a few mins of that a week or so ago. Who she was came across as a arrogant twat that thought she knew everything while spouting shite everytime the camera was on her

No that will be Rachel Brown. She was pundit in the women world cup and managed to come across more arrogant than the whole American contingent.

Course it is. Arsenal get a further 30 minutes of home advantage, which balances it out.

Not for me.

 

I personally think away goal rule is outdated full stop, but that is another argument.

 

Home advantage is nothing like it used to be when away goals were first brought in and if you look at tie as a whole they have matched each other exactly in the two results - both winning 1-0 away, then they have played half an hour on top where they drew 1-1 and just for that goal by the away team in that half hour they win the whole tie that period is decisive but if that period ended 0-0 it wouldn't have been...not right for me.

Yep, home advantage for 120 minutes in no way matches the potential of a double away goal advantage. Either have away goals only count double in the event of a draw after 90 minutes of the second leg, or do away with a rather archaic rule and once extra time kicks in, then it has to be a clear victory on aggregate.

Once extra time kicks in then for me yeah has to be a clear winner.

Do you know what, she’s brilliant in ‘real life’. She did a talk at my lad’s prize giving in school, no notes or nothing, and all the kids were hanging on her every word. Normally it’s some boring twat putting everyone to sleep but they actually listened and were interested for once.

 

She met the kids afterwards and had time for everyone, just a really warm and friendly person. Surprised that she came across badly on the telly as she’s definitely sound away from it.

Fair enough. She isn't Alex Morgan or Leigh Nicol so she can still fuck off.

I've been saying this for years, once extra time starts the away goal rule should stop.

I’m with the guy on Arsenal fan tv I wouldn’t overly blame Aubamayang as he’s the only player who seems to put a shift in. Like when everyone blamed Stevie for ‘the slip’ I always say look how many times he won games for us, literally on his own.
