Ake off with a hammy. Hopefully ours come through unscathed but it underlines what a nightmare these games are. Quite a good match this. Fantastic pass from Gravenberch to nearly assist a goal for Xavi, Trent-esque

Spot on. The ‘controversy’ is totally contrived.

I find Rice to be the only tolerable thing about Arsenal, he usually comes across as a decent bloke. The rest of the team and manager are a bunch of whining, diving, petulant, entitled cunts. They also have one of the naffest kits in the history of football.

That was fun.

A Klopp-style massive improvement in 2nd half. Total domination and some gorgeous one touch stuff. A couple more goals would have been deserved and welcome, but can’t complain, big banana skin successfully navigated. Gravenberch growing rapidly into that role, Dom worked his socks off.

Football’s back. Along with uninspiring away performances and abysmal refereeing.

This. Real and their fans simply won’t accept the kind of half-arsed defending we’ve had to put up with from Trent for years. Luca Stephenson, a journeyman of League 1 ability, put in more tackles against Seville than Trent has done this calendar year. He nailed that tricky winger that was giving Trent all kinds of problems . And Real have absolutely no need to tweak their team to accommodate Trent’s brilliance on the ball.

I don’t disagree with any of that. It’s going to be an interesting few months.

Agree totally. We’ve also got more goals in the current midfield than in the Klopp 1.0 team. Mac, Dom and Jones got 19 between them. It would be nice to improve our conversation rate on those many, many chances we create.

Do you mean the Associated Party Transactions claim that was supposed to be going to court weeks ago? I know it was being conducted in private, but I’ve not heard a peep about it.

Agree totally about Trent. I thought Mainoo was very good in previous games, which was a bit depressing, him being a young ManU player. But he was totally out of his depth last night.

He’s fully embraced the Real sense of entitlement, expecting a free kick every time anyone tackles him.

At least he won’t be playing in a stupid 3rd place play off at the weekend and can finally get off on holiday.

They do like to complicate things, don’t they….. ‘ Season Ticket and Membership NFC passes will not be activated for stadium entry for this game. ALL supporters will be required to download a one-off match NFC pass to their smartphone for this game.

Anybody heard anything about Sevilla tickets? Supposed to go on sale a week ago, but it’s been showing as ‘Sale suspended’ since then.
