The Tottenham Stadium might get there with their end, if they can copy the BVB Yellow Wall, but I doubt it. The Emirates will never have that atmosphere. The atmosphire was like that at Highbury very rarely. The Anderlecht final was on a different level, but the number of games the next level down from that weren't that frequent. It was called the Highbury library after all. I've no doubt part of the reason was a convenient rhyme. But let's not exaggerate the atmosphere. |

It may have taken a little longer than most thought he would need, but it shouldn't really be a surprise Klopp has built a formidable Liverpool side. He needed to build 'his' team and implement his tactics. What he did in Germany is evidence he can win trophies against much bigger rivals. |

Yes, Babu, but that rival, singular is an effing giant of a rival. He wasn't beating Ajax or Porto. LFC has won everything but the PL title. That's their goal. In fact, I'd be surprised if the fans had a choice of winning the league or the CL this season they'd probably take the league by a comfortable margin. That said, with all the 'clutter' at the top of the table with as many good sides as I've seen in my relatively short time as a fan (late 90s), LFC has distinguished themselves, even over MUFC which takes some doing. They may end up winning nothing this season but with how they look, I can see them winning the title in the next 2-3 years I reckon. He's no Brendon Rodgers. |

The media would go mad over Liverpool finally winning the league again since '90 and it would be almost unbearable with the sentiment but I'd never want Man Utd to win the league again in my lifetime. They were top dogs when I got into football and even though they were never quite as dominant after 2003, they still won titles and another CL, so they have had enough. I'd rather City, LFC or even...cough....spit...the scum to win it than Man Utd. Good points on Bayern, they own the bundesliga though. So financially dominant over the rest of the league, its the SPL on a bigger scale. |

Babu, are you sure you weren't in the Director's box, eating your prawn sandwiches and berating the waiter for bringing you a 1977 Burgundy vintage when you explicitly requested the 1990 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Romanee-Conti Grand Cru? I had a client years ago in Los Angeles who gave me VIP tickets to a Los Angeles Lakers game. It was the worst. I was in an enclosed box, had to watch the game on the TV in the VIP room because I couldn't really see the court. As for Arteta, when he was being touted as a possible replacement for Wenger there were a couple articles about how much Pep rated him and he would make suggestions to Pep that changed matches (from the bad to good for the pedants  ) and then recently how he is not upset about losing the job. Like many others, at the time, I wondered what he done to be considered for the manager's job other than he was a former captain and Pep chose him as an assistant.

Barcelona already had Messi, Iniesta and Xavi on their books. Do you think taking over Barcelona is comparable to taking over the post-Wenger Arsenal? Moreover, do you seriously think Arteta is comparable to Guardiola? |

I was only 1.5 out on my predicted 11. Giving myself the half for hedging by bets between Aubameyang and Lacazette to start up top. Only other one wrong I had Xhaka and Emery has gone with Elneny. Leno, Lichtsteiner, Sokratis, holding, Monreal, elneny, Torreira, iwobi, Mkhitaryan, Welbeck, Aubameyang First starts for 3 of them Smith-rowe and Nketiah make the bench |

Indeed, what does it say about Arsenal, that Gazidis wants out to an AC Milan that have be stagnating for years and sound like they will (also) be hamstrung financially by their owner(s)?. I actually think he did a reasonable job, given that constraints the club were (are) put under by the wiggy f*cker and his favouritism toward Wenger's bs 'moneyball' model. A half empty Emirates in a crap Eurovision league game against a team no one has ever heard of...... kind of sums up a Arsenal under Kroenke, oh well at least it saves me money and there is no sign of that changing, I won't be lining that crooks pockets. |

Aubameyang 1-0. That’s how you counter attack. Edge of our own box, Mkhitaryan travelled with it, quick ball to iwobi on the left, early ball across the box to Aubameyang on the back post clinical finish |

Not easy against a mass defence, but a good counter attacking goal has eased the pressure and I'm looking for a couple more after the break. |

Arsenal should get a couple more goals in the 2nd half. Good to see fast counter attacking play. Aubameyang is warmed up for more goals. |
