Doesn't surprise me.

 

[Spurger King]

Perfectly happy for the gooners to waste their time in this tournament for a little longer.

 

[LSUY]

Why are Arsenal so jammy?! Lost track of how many late goals they've scored this season.

 

[Marty]

Papering over the cracks.

I want Arsenal to get through so they aren't in the EL. Preferably, they'd finish 4th in their group, but that won't happen.

Agree. Get them through the group, draw them with Real, Bayern or Barca in the round of 16, they get thrashed, lose confidence. Hunky-dory.

And qualify for the top four yet again.

Well done Gerard. That's what you should do after a 3-0 loss at home

Classy. Hope RM absolutely batter them at home.

The last thing I want is any of the English Champions league teams dropping in to the Europa with us so I take some silver lining from Arsenal winning tonight in as far as I am happy for them to come second in their group and end up against a powerhouse who will dump them out later but leave us with less domestic rivals in the Europa (I hate the notion of us losing to an English team in the Europa)

Arsenal on track to having their usual season, last 16 Champions League, difficult March period, "will the make 4th this time?", they scrape 4th on last day, rince, repeat.

 

[riggi]

Classy. Hope RM absolutely batter them at home.

Unlike the bellend at half time

 

[haxman]

RTE pundits slating Balotelli. They're spot on too.

 

[Grapo2001]

1 clean sheet in 18 games for pool. Wow.

 

[ClintEastwould]

Agree. Get them through the group, draw them with Real, Bayern or Barca in the round of 16, they get thrashed, lose confidence. Hunky-dory.

You'd think so but every time they crash out of the CL they go on a league run

 

[Mr Pink]

What is Jamie on about it,....it was Kroos, not Rodriguez who played that pass, for the first goal.

Balo can do whatever he wants though, I'm loving him. He's gonna bring that club down.

 

[worcestersauce]

Brendan Rodgers interview makes me think he saw a different game to me, Liverpool were magnificent in the second half apparently, maybe Real didn't take a breather ready for their weeknd game after all then.
I guess he doesn't have to say "we got our arse spanked tonight" but good grief, a little recognition tfor the opposition wouldn't hurt would it?

 

[Phantom]

The scum have been scoring late goals for years it isn't something which is new or even really papering over the cracks.

 

[only1waddle]

Souness talking sense on Balotelli while the two Jaime's make excuse's and sit on the fence, no change then.
