RC Lens vs. Arsenal F.C.
If you squint and are very hungry, Lens looks like a bunch of hotdogs with ketchup and mustard all over
WHAT A SAVE
That shot should revitalise us at least
Lucky his foot was right there
Makes a conscious effort to keep it there after starting to go into a dive imo
Why's Vieira on and not Nelson lol
When tf is Nelson gonna play XD
Vieira doesn't offer much threat on the wings. Not sure what the reasoning is.
ffs
I see we're back in the "goalkeepers become prime Buffon" era of Arsenal
Don't think that will ever end lmao
Stunt on them hooooooooooes
WHAT THE FUCK
Just saw a replay showing there was a handball in the lead up the Lens goal..
It's too close to disallow.
Rice moving into right 8 territory and Fabio dropping deep. I don't recognise this team.
Lens just want to see this one out to halftime. Arsenal need to strike now or better show up in first 10 minutes of the next half.
Once again, reminder that the rules on timewasting and injury time aren't changed in UCL
My kingdom for a stream that runs for more than 15 seconds, dear Lord. I just watched a slideshow of Gabby scoring
Mood
WHAT A GOAL! Can't even be mad at that. That's football.
I blame the kit. Unless we win in which case it's the best kit ever.
The offence is feeling very stale. Wouldn't mind an early sub on for ESR.
He deserves the chance too, think he's on the verge of losing confidence after what happened at Bournemouth
His mental state feels like it's probably holding him back. Kinda a shame, cuz he still seems like he can be a very good player.
Yes, and Nelson, we need line breakers.
That's twice now, Reiss, come on now
Both jerseys look amazing.
Might just be the lighting but I'm not a fan of our one on the pitch tbh. Feels like it'd be kinda hard to spot if someone was more colourblind
Green on a green field, maybe that's way.
Nice first time shot from Kai
The gaffer has named a team that doesn't seem to care about Sunday. Lets go Arsenal!
Raya has some really nice distribution!
Edit: well this one didn't age very well 😭
lol spoke too soon
Way too soon. 🙃
You were saying XD
Credit where credit is due, that was very well executed
Need to head out for class, I'm sure nothing will go wrong between now and the end of the game
How does that not go in
Goddamit.
We deserve nothing from this. Absolutely no answer to Lens' formation after going ahead, no overloads created, no clear chances, Vieira slowing down everything he's involved in. Rice is the only one to come out of this with any credit tonight.
Ligue duh
Reminder that they're not going to add any time on
No one should a single bit of forward impetus than Rice. That's unacceptable.
We need to be better if we're going to have any hope of taking on the giants of this competition like Madrid & Bayern.
Tomiyasu is also inverting, lol
I'm loving the camera angle on my feed. Feels close but not annoyingly close.
Same, not a fan of the picture quality on mine but such is streams
my stream is so slow Wenger just retired
And it's also down rn lol :p
Lens had a Arsenal at the Emirates moment
lmao, Saka had a reverse deja vu!
Nice shot, Havertz
We look like we're playing at home.
Constantly giving them chances...
We need to find Odegaard in advanced positions. We are using the width to no avail.
Fuck yeah Gabby J my man
ESR on for someone idk who my stream is lagging
Havertz
Finally found one that's working again. Can't watch the full match cuz I have class at 5 that I need to walk to but like I'll get most of it
Good from Havertz that.
They are very loud. Quite impressive, I'm too used to PL games where we come across on TV even as the away side lol
That was an insane finish. Anything less and Raya had it saved
Well. You don't save those but that defending...
@Astrealix but Raya giveaway?
That's just excellent attacking play.
It is. Just nitpicking cuz I'm frustrated lol.
Lemmy is being a fuck for me but easyyyyy
crowd is so much more quiet now :)
Lol I'm pretty sure we single handedly crash Lemmy every time there's a match, you'll never sing that
It's weird, Lemmy world hasn't even struggled much recently. It's fine now but that was weird for a bit lol
Jeeeeeeeeeesus
Off-topic, but for the past 2 hours it's felt and sounded like someone is repeatedly picking and dropping a 5 ton concrete block behind my house. Not helping my mood.
Third time our defense has positioned themselves to block a cross that isn't coming. They've done it over and over!
Honestly can't be mad about that goal, I'm annoyed all the same though.
Zaha and Torreira holding United to a draw. What could've been lol
Bellingham scored a quality goal.
Trossard how we missed you
Jesus LW just wasn't the same
Nelson for Trossard, White for Zinny, I think ESR for Havertz?
Correct
Can we please attack now? We can't do anything right the past while
The year is 2023. UCL commentators are discussing Kai Havertz's best position again. Lol. I swear, he's gonna end up being the world's best goalkeeper or smth.
Ox 2.0? 😂
Raya header inshallah
Dang why do we come across all these fairy tale club + wonderous manager combinations?
We need to make changes, our attack isn't working
Takehiro right back doesn't work
I'd have liked him playing in Saliba's role, but he hasn't been awful. I don't think he as the chemistry with Vieira necessary to offer anything from this point on.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeesh
That shoulda gone innnnn
Someone tell the lads that we're not at home
ISDLKJGSGJLKDG
No shame from Lens players whatsoever
Was the cross deflected?
That's a nice hoodie.
Prepare for a boxing match
Well done Tomi, this is the speedy wingback test he needs.
Here we gooooooooooo cmon you gunners!!!! Let's get those points
Good vibes everywhere
Always rated the UEL anthem
(This is a joke, we'll be fine even if we lose this as long as we can do better in the other games)
Havertz and Gabriel, wtf is going on
Ffs rest Saka man
If I speak, I am in big trouble.
I know it's international break coming but please
Can we sub Raya yet
Saka is a big loss. Hope Fabio can put a shift in here
At least Gala are ahead
Buffons everywhere mate
Stop with the long balls ffs they're nabbing basically all of them
This is the problem that Jesus and Havertz are theoretically supposed to solve...
Hard to believe that just a few weeks ago, we had more depth than we knew what to do with...
For fuck's sake, we looked completely impotent
They played with 5/6 defenders and outfought us from there. Our answer was to aimlessly pass it around in front of the them and ignore Reiss standing in acres of space.
Unacceptable really.
Meanwhile, they exploited the same passing lane on our left side over and over. So frustrating.
JESUS! TOO EZ!
What the fuck is that goal from them man, every time I see it it still boggles my mind
I guess Trossard still needs to build up fitness?
Luckily United's loss will save us from the full scrutiny of the media.
Almost looks like a 5-4-1 from us in defence with how much Rice dropping deep
Not been impressed by Vieira today so far
Ball hasn't even gone down the right
Yeah. Needs to get more involved, but what little we've seen feels like he's more involved in control than on attack
Wouldn't throw him in this type of match, Lens are physical
Credit where credit is due, their time wasting has been spectacular.
Bukayo :( Please be okay
