I cousin in Norristown (you familiar?) I converted to a Gooner, many years back, went to the Brentford game. Had a wonderful time. Bought the ticket off some site and said he thought it was going to be 50/50 if it was legit. lol My Company has a box at the Linc...I'm hoping to get a couple of passes for the game. It'll be a full house...no doubt in my mind Should be a good dress rehearsal for the 2026 World Cup games scheduled there |

By pure coincidence Conceicao also accused Pep of insulting him when City knocked Porto out in 2020…..and accused Tuchel of insulting him when Chelsea knocked them out in 2021….just a coincidence though so hardly relevant Conceicao is a serial clasher. |

I think they are beatable and definitely don’t know how to sit in, defend and frustrate Bayern - better than Barca but an up and down season. Like Barca we owe them one. Kane coming to the emirates. Man City - we’ll likely have to beat them to win the CL but they’d be decent favourites in a knock out format. Would rather avoid them and City draw Real Madrid Real Madrid - a glamour tie, they have top class players everywhere, would prefer not to get them just yet! PSG - feel we could beat them, look what Newcastle did to them in the group stage. As with most of the teams at this stage they’ll have the CL knock out experience over us Athletico/Inter - tie in the balance. Athletico would be another Porto. Fast paced prem football has recently suited playing against Italian teams but Inter are very very good, they would be tough. Dortmund/PSV - tie in the balance and if we drew the winners it would be the one tie we’d be made very clear favourites for Not a bad assessment Rich. Wouldn't mind PSG or Barca. Bayern, just to kick a smug Kane to the kerb. City just to show off they could be beaten. Will be awaiting today's game results. |

According to David Ornstein, Benny Blanco or as he is mainly known by, Ben White, has signed a new, improved, long term contract. Previous deal was till 2026. Announcement expected later this week. |

This summer will really be as much about the outgoings as those coming in. There are 5-6 first team squad players who will likely leave |

Inter had won 13 games in a row, Atletico are having a poor season by their standards, just shows how hard CL knock out games are. Games can be decided by a small moment or a bit of luck. The last 8 is now a who’s who of heavyweight European teams. |

Ball was in play for less than 50% of the time played in the Porto game, yet only 1 minute of added time in the first half and 3 minutes in the second were added. None in extra time. Weirdly we had a first leg ref where everything was a foul and a second leg ref who let so much go but both still managed to help create a stop start game that Porto craved |

He wasn't playing advantage. He was allowing Porto players to get away with time-wasting and small niggly fouls, particularly pushing our players off the ball from all angles. |

I feel badly for Wilshire. His manner of playing was sure to bring in more injuries than most pros. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Z8WWLrt8AWw |

Watching the highlights of the Porto match again, Raya was a tad fortunate to get away with his second save. He was off his line and had taken a full pace to his left before Galeno even got to the ball. Also worthy of note was that Rice covered the most distance of any player in the match at 16.3km. No real surprise I suppose but second at 16.08km was Havertz. Ode was third at 15.8km. |

This is all that it says about the keeper. Raya met those conditions. When the ball is kicked, the defending goalkeeper must have at least part of one foot touching, in line with, or behind, the goal line. |

Fair enough Chaps. You may be correct. I formed a different opinion both on the night and when I saw the replay from which the stills are taken. There may be other angles that make things clearer. |

If Southgate so desperately wants him in the squad as he says he does then he must find a way to fix things and build bridges. Players simply don’t decide to not represent their country on the eve of a major championship just because they feel like it |

De Bruyne pulled out of international fixtures because of a ‘groin injury’. Just pull all our players now, have no shame doing it. City do this every single international break. They’ll have a fully fit 11 for our game no doubt |

Ben White has excused himself from a call up for England during the break. After all, why be bothered with a meaningless friendly. |

Have to admit that when Benny pulled out the first time, our family group (multi-generation, mullti- ethnicity) thought it was because there was about to be a tell-all expose in the media. Some thought he was about to be ‘outed’, but we all agreed pretty quickly that would be a MASSIVE positive for him, the Club and for the massed ranks of the support. Can’t believe Clubs haven’t spotted the potential. It will be HUGE for whoever gets there first. |

I have to say I’ve only just watched Southgate’s press conference and that’s *%^@*** hysterical, blokes lying through his teeth. Honestly Benny has gone up in my estimation. Thing is if Steve Holland tried to mug him off in front of the other players it must have been bad but for him to turn the call up down takes massive minerals. I think that’s proper class. I wonder why they made it public. Probably because it would have been inexplicable to the general public |

Looks like us vs Bayern Munich And not if, but when w go through the winner of PSG vs Barcelona in the semi. Keeping with recent years I feel if we go to the finals we will play an English side. I'd hate that. Aren't we home first in each? I'm not a worried about Kane as I used to be. We have our best defense since Sol Campbell.. |

Bayern Really thought with the way that the first 2 quarters came out that that would dictate the semi final pathway which meant athletic or dortmund would have been our semi final opponents......that would have been perfect. Alas not to be Semi final would be city or Madrid if we get past bayern At home first in both games if we get through. Always prefer 2nd leg at home. Oh well anything from here is a bonus |
