6666 Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 3-4-3. Ramsey, Ozil, Lacazette & Aubameyang all start. Very top heavy, maybe too top heavy. Torreira will need to be on his game. Might work out if we're planning on playing on the counter but if it becomes a battle for midfield dominance it's going to be difficult without another midfielder willing to stay in midfield.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted April 11, 2019 Subscriber Posted April 11, 2019 Beautiful passing move and Arsenal lead through Ramsey.
Guest Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Got a bit lucky there because there was a foul in the build-up but that's football I guess
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted April 11, 2019 Subscriber Posted April 11, 2019 2-0 to Arsenal. Torreira shot deflected off Koulibaly. They've turned the crowd noise right down on this stream which is annoying.
Guest Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 2.0 I remember the last time we played Napoli at home. The first half we were as good as I have seen us play since 2004
6666 Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Turns out Napoli aren't actually that good. Dominant half so far.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted April 11, 2019 Subscriber Posted April 11, 2019 Really good half from Arsenal. Probably need a couple more in the second half to pre-empt the inevitable horror show they put in in the away leg.
Guest Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Napoli really going for the away goal so need to go careful
Guest Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Robbie savage "he has to go with his left foot, he has to go with his left foot, he has to go with his left foot" We get it Robbie. You think he should have gone with his right foot

Guest Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Thought that had gone in and started cheering. Good job I'm not in the pub I would look like a right tit
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted April 11, 2019 Subscriber Posted April 11, 2019 Arsenal would surely have taken 2-0 at the start of the night. It could have been even better but if Arsenal just score once in Naples, Napoli would need 4, so Arsenal are in a great position really.
...Dan Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Delighted with that. I think that's the kind of game we'd have conceded a late goal in in the Wenger days. One goal in Napoli should be enough.
6666 Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Could've and should've won by more but I definitely would've taken this before the game.
Guest Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 I watched this. Napoli missed so many golden chances, probably closer than the second half chances Arsenal had. However, I hadn't seen such a poor Napoli side since the Rafa Benitez days. They didn't play well at all, Arsenal clearly deserved victors of the match. The San Paolo is always tough though, nothing said and done.

True Blue Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 Good result for Arsenal and tbh i didn't expect this. Should advance into the semi's.
The Artful Dodger Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47909511 Arsenal fans now at the racial abuse game, the Hampstead Heath tweed shirt wearing muppets won't be able to keep their smug sanctimony any longer
