The gulf in quality to whom? To Bayern? Who we narrowly lost to? Or what gulf are you talking about?

Yes we are not the world best team and even the world best team can loose against this Bayern side. They are still have a great team and Tuchel knows how to play knockout games.

In the end it was fine margin. If we make it 2-0 in the first game it takes another turn. It was an even game in the Allianz Arena. First half we were the better team not many can say that.

Now we need to win our next game and than it's just hope.

I can’t enjoy anything after this last week. We must all suffer.

In all seriousness, Mikels fine margins means he wants the team to be 100% efficient at both ends at all times. It is not possible to win trophies this way.

Getting up early at 5am vs Munich & 1:30am in Australia against Aston Villa to lose both is really disappointing compared to our previous 2 months winning by good margins consistently.

Our biggest issue for me is our squad depth. Poor old Saka gets criticised tonight & vs AV but he's hardly been rested for months, Ødegaard has the same issue. They are still only quite young so we have to accept they can't keep going consistently all 90 minutes for months without being fatigued. We have a bit of depth on the left side to rotate between Martinelli, Trossard & GJ to some extent.

We have a very young & inexperienced squad compared to Man City & Bayern, look at the depth they have compared to us to rotate around. Havertz is Artetas main striker but he's not a proper striker & he gets 90 minutes per game like Saka does. We need a proper CF or striker to take advantage of our chances we make. Nketiah & GJ are nowhere near the level of Kane/Haaland for example.

At least we recruited Rice, he got us on our way a tad bit to the next level a bit at least, it will take another season or 2 yet imo for us to be competing at the top level as long as Arteta & Edu still recruit another top class striker & depth for RW (Saka) & Ødegaard etc. Our RW depth is only Nelson then ESR, Viera with Ødegaard. We need more world class depth then those guys. A big squad clean out is needed in other words.

Ok, but these are other kind of "fine margins" I was talking about. Yes there are other ways to play with more risk but this doesn't mean we are gonna win trophies.

If City win the PL this year they have won it 7 time in the last 8 years and one year Liverpool won it with they're best ever team playing out of their. So at the moment to win the PL is super hard and to win the CL is always super hard. These kind of trohies we wanna win and last two years we are going (more than) in the right direction.

look I thought I made it clear, on the attacking front , we just lack that craft and a little bit of quality . You basically just said it yourself. We have struggled to score against not just Bayern but Porto as well . There is just more guild craft and quality in the CL and it exposes our attack which relies a lot of the time on the press and set pieces.

Still utterly dejected and disappointed. It really was a horrible mentality we displayed, once again. Too many players hide when it matters, or they’re simply just not capable of stepping up for these moments.

Cannot see anything other than a capitulation in the league to follow.

Say better luck next time, or we will come back stronger or literally any one of a hundred other messages that don’t make you sound like a eunuch.

No wonder we have mentality issues. Starts at the top 😤

Arsenal Quotes

In 1997/98 we became English champions as I had set myself three missions to carry out which I felt were essential. One: to have an impact on the result and the team's playing style. Two: to foster the player's individual development. Three: to strengthen the structure of the club and enhance its global influence.
