It sometimes feels like paying all this money for TNT/Sky is excessive. Not tonight.
It's almost as if when the Spurs go marching in there's nothing at all to worry about except secondhand embarrassment

So so glad I turned over after the Arsenal game. What scenes!
I wrote about the new record 'Higanbana' from Norwegian post-metal band Sundrowned

Do you think City should have just gone for it? 😉
Looked like he was physically uncomfortable before the break, so maybe everyone should wait and see
He didn't look comfortable (physically) just before the break
Looked like he was grimacing before the break
Grimacing just before the break so that's gotta be it
You're probably right. I feel I pay enough for Sky to be able to opt out of his co-comms
Instead we have a Gary Neville masterclass in saying the thing he was always going to say if Arsenal failed to take three points. It's exhausting.
You're dead right, James.
Fully agree
That's literally how the game was won. Very even contest. Excellent strike that will fly into the stand on almost any other day.
Agree to disagree mate. I just feel the "didn't go for it" thing is so reductive. It's a nip and tuck contest that should've ended in a draw but for a one in a thousand free kick.
Yeah with a lower xG and a once in a blue moon worldie. It was an even match. This narrative is nonsense.
Oh but Gary Neville says it's a mentality problem. Their mentality rocketed that ball into the net from 30 yards.
I like you Elliot, but the disrespect for Madueke is not a great look. Cracking a string of jokes at the expense of a guy that looks to be on his way to the club feels nasty rather than funny. You have a pretty big reach across the fan base and it just feeds negativity.
Absolutely. He's an absolute gift. Unshakeable and brilliant.
11 - Arsenal registered 11 shots on target in this match; the joint-most on record (since 2003-04) by a team in a UEFA Champions League knockout stage game against Real Madrid (also 11 by Liverpool in March 2009). Onslaught.
Love this from you, Tim. Seeing it after the Real Madrid demolition just sweetens it further.
Was Jude Bellingham even playing? Just a glorious night all round.
Did that YouTube money buy you a home cinema? 😁 WHAT. A. NIGHT.
Just so proud of them tonight. What a pleasure that was. And a privilege.
What a proud night for the Arsenal. Superb to a man. It was a privilege to watch that performance. #ARSRMA
2 - Declan Rice is the first player to score two direct free kick goals in a knockout stage match in the UEFA Champions League. Precision.
I would understand being blocked if I had been abusive or unreasonable, but it just seems weird to block anyone who disagrees with you about football.
Blocked too for agreeing with Andrew that it was a run of the mill trip by MLS. Odd behaviour from Glendenning.
The kind of trip that's been the stock-in-trade of certain Man City midfielders for some time. That kind of cynical, counter-attack-ending foul has been so common that it's fair to call it run of the mill at this point.
