Bayern are cruising along in neutral

 

[Fergie]

Abate pls.

 

[Hixx]

Andy Townsend stop saying "GO ON!" you fucking cunt. You're commentating not fucking cheerleading.

 

[PowderedToast]

ox looks like the only one that gives a shit

 

[wedward]

Arteta to play another 60 minutes on a yellow?

Flamini will come in for him.

 

[Judderman]

FUUUUUUUUCK

 

[Meier]

Jeez, that was really impressive by AOC. He was so poor last season so it's nice to see that he really is playing well as of late. Hate to see a young player regress.

 

[Batigol]

He's 6ft 2, he will do you

 

[Sato Koiji]

That was a good clearance by arsenal!

 

[Ingeniero]

Come on Arsenal !

 

[Wilbur]

Andy Townsend stop saying "GO ON!" you fucking cunt. You're commentating not fucking cheerleading.

he's the colour commentator pls leave him alone

 

[Gareth Bale]

Isolating a player into getting sent off by forcing him into fouls, and overreacting to taps on the face by going down like you've been shot, are not on the same level of gamesmanship.

Fair enough, but the end goal is the same. Try and get another player sent off. Don't think a commentator should be encouraging that.

 

[Vivalaraza]

OxGod is actually playing amazingly well.

 

[jtb]

remember when Ox was our most in-form player of the past month or so and Wenger dropped him against Stoke? I'm so glad that gamble paid off.

 

[fuenf]

If you think this Bayern is better than last year you're going to have a bad time soon.

footyGAF is delusional, most of you only remember the Bayern / Barca game where Bayern intentionally let Barca take control of the game. In the final Dortmund stood up to them, tried to play with them which resulted in an entirely different game and gameplan for Bayern. Bayern is currently just managing the game against a shit team.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Arsenal can't get a move going lol

Why Podolski is on there?

 

[K1LLER7]

Bayern just got to pull it back to the edge of the box.

Some really poor crossing.

There is a huge difference between just plain cheating and targeting a player though.

Running at someone on a yellow might be a "cheap" tactic but it's perfectly legal and sensible.

yes bayern is god. all hail lord bayern

 

[wedward]

Flamini for arteta. Rosicky for Podolski. Jenkinson for giroud.

Fergie used to make Ronnie run at defenders who had a yellow.

Bayern wont be "managing" or "cruise controlling" a team like Madrid..

 

[Salvadora]

I don't think targeting someone on a yellow is even a cheap move, it's part of the game.

 

[rodvik]

Err Bayern are 2 away goals up , enjoying more possession and getting the better chances even in first gear. I dont see why they should change at all.

Well maybe to satisfy the PAYING LIVE AUDIENCE!???

 

[fuenf]

true and that's why they would approach the game differently..

 

[TheLucifer]

Great pass from Balo to Poli there. Lovely celebration too.

 

[WJD]

Does Ozil even give a shit?

 

[Moobabe]

true and that's why they would approach the game differently..

Guardiola has more than one game plan?

 

[jtb]

Well maybe to satisfy the PAYING LIVE AUDIENCE!???

well do the fans like watching their team win?

 

[Ravensmash]

What is Podolski doing? CALM DOWN

This is more about Townsend encouraging one and dismissing other .

 

[jtb]

Podolski can't defend, Giroud is shit. play Podolski up front, bring on Flamini, problem solved.

 

[Vivalaraza]

This is more about Townsend encouraging one and dismissing other .

Yeah but they are different.

Townsend is a knob, we all agree, but not cos of that.

 

[Sato Koiji]

well do the fans like watching their team win?

They win on aggregate...but the fans want a spectacle with these ticket prices...dont be stupid!

 

[Gurthang]

Milan is playing good. They might actually win this

 

[Wilbur]

Ox has been great. Mature, controlled and dangerous performance so far.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Because there's a huge difference. Not saying Townsend isn't an idiot, but this sounds completely fair.

 

[arkon]

Which no one is saying. Bayern are in a strong position from the first leg and controlling this game. They've continued to make chances. They're comfortable.

 

[Bubble Metropolis]

Podolski can't defend, Giroud is shit. play Podolski up front, bring on Flamini, problem solved.

Yeah we should bring on more defenders so we can hold onto this 2-0 deficit.

 

[K1LLER7]

Chamberlin motm

 

[wedward]

Podolski can't defend, Giroud is shit. play Podolski up front, bring on Flamini, problem solved.

Flamini wouldn't be able to deal with this pressing.

 

[TheLucifer]

Milan is playing good. They might actually win this

OH MY GOD WHY

 

[Mr.Marston]

MILAAAAAAANNNNN

Please win.

 

[GQman2121]

I know they've struggled to hold possession, but this is far to timid from Arse for me. They should take more chances pressing in Bayerns half and try to force them to make a bad pass or something. If they get caught out, they get caught out and concede. But at least go down fighting.

 

[L1NETT]

We are winning!

YESSS

 

[Gareth Bale]

Yeah but they are different.

Townsend is a knob, we all agree, but not cos of that.

Thanks, but I'm not criticising him just for the sake of it.

 

[Clegg]

Giroud is playing like he had another affair last night.

 

[Fergie]

Turan with the deflection.

2-1.

 

[Salvadora]

Ox has been great. Mature, controlled and dangerous performance so far.

Agreed.

Really pleased with his performances this season.
