Get Lacazette or Pépé off and bring on wonder boy Martinelli. |

Nobody up front is making any runs. There is no obvious attacking pass available. Jeez. 70 mins and not a single shot on target. |

Don't worry Arsenal. You have all the time in the world. Your chances of scoring are greatly improved by making the same exact passes to the same exact players in the same exact areas and the forward players in the same exact area. |

Great skill Pépé, but totally ineffective. Perhaps try a shot next time eh. |

Pépé has to learn when to stop the tricks, step overs and fakes and just pass or shoot the damn thing. |

Pépé gets a bit more of a footballing brain he will be dangerous. |

Ha ha. Torreira marking Ba at the corner. Nuts. And now there’s 30 more minutes of this entertainment. Yawn. |

I'm never convinced by Arteta's substitutions. Why Willock and not Martinelli? |

How ridiculous putting Torreira to mark Ba in the corner. Ba wouldn't need to do much if the ball comes his way. |

Really poor tonight. All the worst attributes in the team. Passing too slow, too many touches, no off ball movement, no tempo. I’m still smarting from that ref decision to not send their guy off in the first half. Might not have changed our ability to be woeful tonight but playing 10 men for 70 minutes has a huge bearing on the tie |

Worst 90 minutes of Arteta's time by some distance. Woeful. Let's hope we can claw our way through somehow. |

It is evident that at least 2 defenders will crowd out Pépé when he has the ball. Why don't Arsenal have a tactic for runners to offer Pépé an out-ball? Twice there, Özil preferred to hang so far back than to run forward to receive a through ball. |

About time we take Lacazette out. He had been ineffective tonight. |

Martinelli for Lacazette. |

Well Martinelli has made a difference. Creates the opportunity for Aubameyang. |

F me. How did Aubameyang miss that! Weirdly we could have clawed it back right at the death. Sums it all up really. |

Got exactly what we deserved. Not a shot on target until the 76th minute at home against mediocre opponents is simply not good enough. Sorry but we are lacking quality all over the pitch. That's no CL football for another season then. |

Aubameyang misses a virtual open goal from 4 yards. He scored that 999 times out of 1000. The perfect storm of a game is complete. Awful ref call to not send their man off Slack defending from set pieces Dominate possession but no goal threat Miss a sitter at the end Don’t deserve to save anything from this absolute mess of a season. Terrible performance |

You saw that coming somehow. We scored and I knew it. In all the elation where’s the party pooper saying get the *%^@ back! let’s keep it out! 5 minutes lads if you lose concentration I’ll have you on a plate. |

I think playing Aubameyang out wide is just nuts. It's not like Lacazette is pulling up any trees down the middle. |

Terrible performance Would you rather lose now or in the semis or final again? Because that’s what would have happened. Apart from anything the creaky defence guarantees it. At least we know where we are. I mean, that’s somewhere along sh*t creek, but at least we know... |

Such an annoying way to go out on the away goal rule when one team has 120 minutes to score them and one has 90 minutes to score them. Some will say we had home advantage for longer, but I’d always rather play the second leg away. Too much of the old Arsenal today, very lax attitude, no tempo, no energy....dare I say it they thought they could just turn up and go through. Just when we were all getting positive about the season again we’re reminded what a massive mess this has been and we’re a long long long way from getting back to being a serious team |

Terrible performance Like he missed a penalty at Spurs last year and that cost us CL these season. Nothing and I mean nothing has changed under Arteta. That was a disgraceful performance and make no mistake Arteta was totally outthought by the other coach. The moment he went for safety with picking all the experienced players over others we started behind the 8 ball. Like Wenger And Emery when they started protecting their job over picking the form players. |

Not just that that defence is poor, but our midfield is always so tentative. Özil, Ceballos and Xhaka cannot make fast attacking plays. They are always looking to pass sideways or back, especially Xhaka. You see the forward play from them only when it is backs to the wall time. Frustrating that this style of play continues from the Wenger days, through from Emery, Lundberg and now Arteta. We are just too slow in our attacking play. And Pépé is over-doing things. And his tricks and flicks are not working for us. |
