Europa League 2018/19 Final Chelsea v Arsenal

[TheChosenOne]

Arsenal getting Sporting Lisbon so far

Plus a nice little trek almost - 3,000 miles each way - to Qarabag

 

[TheChosenOne]

Nice. Vorskla is only a 3500 miles round trip. Ouch. Shame

 

[Shadydan]

A lot of travelling for Arsenal there.

 

[Marty]

Lots of travelling for Arse and a fair bit for Chelsea too. Both got fairly boring/easy groups though.

The Red Bull derby + Celtic and Rosenborg is a fun little group. As is Olympiakos, Milan, Betis and Dudelange from Luxembourg! Talk about an odd one out.

 

[ERO]

Celtic and Rosenborg will play each other in both Champions League (qualifier) and Europa League this season. Has that happened before?

Chelsea were on 82% possession a short time a

They just said the chelsea chairman went into the away end at half time and gave all the chelsea fans a packet of crisps each.

"A fantastic gesture" said the other commentator. It's A gesture, I dunno about a 'fantastic' one though.

Does seem a bit odd.

Okay so not at half time, just before the game instead. It's a nice thing to do, but the commentator was making out he was a saint for doing it.

 

[TheChosenOne]

I don't even like crisps, never have. So presumptuous.

What a load of shit teams

Chelsea playing a lot of first team players. Sarri not rotating too much

 

[Gb160]

Another full house at the Emirates I see.

It’s brilliant seeing them in such a terrible competition.

You guys are watching Arsenal? There are much more interesting games going on like the RB derby and Leverkusen's match where Kai Havertz and just put them up 2-3 with a nice shot with his off foot.

I didn't watch any of it tonight - I saw Arsenal were 3-0 and going on a massive ego trip win but that
touch of fragility showed itself again.

And before anyone mentions it - yes we seem to have it too - although we do it mostly against the 'notable' teams.

I live about 10 minutes away from Sporting's stadium and they were making a right racket right. I may have to pop down in a few weeks and let the local mob know what DT and Robbie were saying about them.
