    Arsene's era might be over

    I know ppl won't care but that guy was an institution for 21 years

    True, makes no sense to extend his contract and Arsenal really need fresh air.

    The one coach for 5+ years thing doesn't work anymore imo, the tactics and nuances of the game just change too quickly nowadays and you need a coaching change from time to time in order to keep up with the game.

    I will give credit to Müller.

    He just finishes it when the opponent is already lying on the floor, possibly dead.

    Costa is so bad at crossing, f***. Basically our only player that's able to consistently dribble into the box, but his final crosses & passes are so incredibly wack and waste the possession.

    We da f****in last-minute assassins, amazing spirit.
    PS: Can't believe no one guarded Robben, every Hertha player positioned within 5m of the goal and left him completely open. Complete blunder.

    Indeed. Great late goal, feels like a win and I'm fine with that draw. Just don't understand Ancelotti. Why would you bring Xabi Alonso down 1-0 and Coman so late. Coman landed us that free kick, could've done so much more if played earlier.

    Feel like he brought Xabi in to orchestrate our possession, we didn't take care of the ball up to that point and relied too much on the wingers.
    Happy for Coman, he needed a confidence boost.

    Oh look, Pep trying to play out from the back with a Keeper who can't pass and no midfield.

    Great idea against a dynamic attack like Monaco.

    Pep can't adapt to his players and opponents anyhow, it's embarassing.
    Overrated as hell, only wins with Messi or owners that fulfill all of his transfer wishes.

    Had some minor hopes Leverkusen would give Atlético a fight like two years ago, but that one is probably done.

    At least the English teams continue to be big fun.

    Shiat, this game is wild. Falcao redeeming himself.

    11 goals in the two games that are on right now, crazy.

    This is fun. Goal-lovers dream matchups.

    Leverkusen standing in their own way. Some things never change.

    Entertaining football in both matches tonight, too bad the results went the wrong way.

    That game could have easily been 6-4. Crazy game.
