    Damn. I think Auba was offside there. Goal stood though.

    There are several reasons why we should go all out for Europa League. One that just popped into my mind for the first time...

    Let Petr Cech lead us to one more trophy before he leaves! Win this cup for Petr!!

    Yeah, yeah, I know I'm getting way ahead of myself but...

    You are right on. That plus the ball possibly being over the byline. Maybe it's just our night? :pray:

    With this lineup you have to press for goals, if only to build confidence and chemistry going forward knowing some days the conventional Arsenal defense will rear it's ugly head.

    We have to very careful not to pickup another card. That was crazy/stupid what Laca just did.

    We have to stay disciplined that way. And err on the side of "cleanness" because clearly Rennes is going to embellish to the max to try to induce the ref to pull his card out.

    Xhaka has to keep his mouth shut to the ref!! He's riding a card from the first leg.

    HT. 2-0.

    Held them to 0 shots on goal. BUT we cannot assume the same will happen in 2T. We need to score at least one more!

    So it's getting touchy and the team needs some added resolve. Fingers crossed they can not only find that but do so in a way that shows they can command a game. Especially at home against a team like Rennais.

    Really digging AMN as a winger-FB. People forget he started out in the academy as an attacker.

    Played really well last two games.

    Gotta keep the sheet spotless!

    Somebody from Rennes just got booked. For dissent or simulation... not clear to me. My eyes were elsewhere.

    My Univision/Gala stream was rock solid up until 50' or so when it's now crashed twice. Anyone else having similar?

    Ozil's passing is uncharacteristically sloppy tonight. Maybe he needs a rest.

    They're attacking a ton and leaving themselves exposed. We HAVE to hit them on the counter. Come on!!!

    Edit: Meanwhile they hit the post again. Luckily it wouldn't have counted. Offside. But....
