Champions League 2024-25

Saka, Sterling, Trossard, Nwaneri, still some smart fast attacking talent to cause problems.

Arsenal are underdogs but they're probably no worse than Atleti as an opponent even with injuries.

The only thing is the home and away will probably be very differential for Arsenal, if they don't take a lead at home they will suffer.

Saka could be back in time for the second leg

Martinelli played tonight also.

Real Madrid easy money over Arsenal.

Real vs PSG will be a good one though

The biggest problem for Arsenal is that they will most likely go all out attack at Emirates, which will make Vinicius/Mbappe have a field day on counter-attacks.
They'll certainly lose at Emirates, and in Bernabeu, they will have to attack out of necessity, which again, will cause them to have a high line, just perfect for Mbappe/Bellingham/Vinicius to run lol

This is hardly conclusive.

Arsenal rarely go all out attack these days so doubt they suddenly decide to do that v Real.

Saka and Martinelli will be back

Havertz is a big miss THO for how Arteta plays

Even if they won't do that, they ain't Atletico to defend like this.

But we shall see, I have 0% hope for Arsenal in knocking them out.

Arsenal all out attack?! They play like a Tony Pulis Stoke side now. Corner FC.

PSG will spank em. Arsenal? No chance

You clearly haven't watched Arsenal the last few years

if you think they will go all out to attack

They won't have to defend a lot. Arsenal will be the team having more possession with Madrid defending deeper.

Also Arteta can park an absolutely mean double-decker. Look at their defense, all CBs and a bunch of defense-minded midfielders in midfield if need be. They can absolutely knock Madrid out but maybe they bottle due to no experience.

Well, that was my opinion.
My point is that you won't beat Real Madrid by playing useless possession football, it's either you demolish them like City did 2 years ago, or you can just forget about it.
