UEFA Champions & Europa League Football Thread ** spoilers ** [10th - 12th December 2024]

They don't always find their feet, they are just the spawniest team I have ever seen in the CL. They won last night due to an absolute gift of a goal, some poor goalkeeping and awful finishing by Atalanta. They have won so many CL recently by scraping past teams through luck and last minute goals its ridiculous.
They do have this "expect to win" attitude which means they never lose their cool I find...

They do... but so do City and they still lose in the CL regularly. I agree that some of it is the expectation of winning and never giving up but still, they have been so lucky on their way to a number of their recent CL wins.
 
Still getting bodied by injuries at the back so MLS gets a CL start. Havertz rested for Jesus, needs a big game or he's basically finished. Sterling deal continues to look worse and worse:

Arsenal starting XI: Raya, Partey, Saliba, Kiwior, Lewis-Skelly, Rice, Merino, Odegaard, Saka, Martinelli, Jesus

Subs: Neto, Setford, Timber, Tierney, Robinson, Heaven, Monlouis, Jorginho, Nwaneri, Trossard, Sterling, Havertz

Wouldn't be surprised to see him in the carabao/closing out this game if we wrap it up early, he hasn't played in forever so is no doubt lacking some match fitness.
