Bayern's twitter account is brutal. I'd imagine NKoudou will be angling for a summer move to their social media offices. It would be a big step up from his current role but I just don't think a club of our size can generate enough retweets to convince him to stay.

Brings back fond memories of when we beat them 5-1 in the cup. We only managed 6-2 on aggregate though

The scoreline brings back memories when Spurs were beaten 5-1 by Newcastle last year! Aggregate of 7-2 for the 2015/16 season!
 
And while it's always a pleasure to see the nomads struggle, let's not forget....
1. Our own CL performances.....
2. Our EL catastrophes
And
3. That the end of the season is still a couple of months away and they are still in the Face and only a couple of points behind.

Think I might put the gloating on hold for a few weeks :emoticon-0107-sweat

Your own humiliations, however abject, should never prevent you from poking cruel fun at the humiliations of others. What are we doing, supporting a football club or rewriting More's Utopia? And, if the latter, we might keep in mind that More himself enjoyed a good beheading...if not, presumably, his own.

Sorry mate :emoticon-0111-blush

I have laughed at Arsenal too many times in the past, and it always comes back and bite me up the a***e :emoticon-0102-bigsm

I'll always laugh at them mate.

Whenever it comes back to bite me, I just switch my phone off, don't log into social media for a period and drink myself into a coma so I don't have to put up with the **** that inevitably gets tossed my way <laugh>

I will always enjoy a laugh at their expense, I will also expect that now they are out of the ECL, out of contention for the EPL and under no real pressure that they will win most of their matches for the rest of the season and probably sneak into the top 4 (its what they do). We have to try and match them if we do we will finish at least 3rd if we don't - I am not even going to go there!

They've got quite an easy run of league games now until they face us and I'd only expect them to drop points against City.
They should stroll past Lincoln on the weekend too, which will allow them to recover a bit before they face West Brom.
I expect them to have the usual run of wins that they do at this stage of the season, unfortunately.

It's likely that this is what's coming, it has been for years, seemingly, often at our expense. However, there is a very real sense that it won't be enough for a very large percentage of Gooners, including a number of their best players. Sanchez having been seen laughing on the bench won't look good to anyone. Even if it was at 'kittens do silly things' rather than the piss poor display his team mates finished up with, it could very well divide the players.

Their next 2 games are WBA [A] and Citeh [H]. Fail to win both of those and the cracks will start to open up even more and would probably see them in 6th. Strangely, the best thing Wenger could do to clinch his treasured 4th place trophy is resign now. That would unite the lot of them and 4th would be a dead cert.

Increasingly, to my mind pro-Wengerites and Arsenal players like Theo, resemble Kevin Bacon in Animal House:

Do Arsenal have any English fans? They all seem to be from everywhere else......

The pub I drink in is in South Norwood. It's a big Palace pub, the one right next to the station. I watch Spurs there a fair bit and there are about 10 Spurs who drink there and the Polish landlord has come with us to some games despite being a United supporter.

When they show Arsenal they put up a sign:

"All Soft Drinks £5"

It stops the horde of Arsenal fans coming in and nursing 1 coke throughout the whole match. You'd be amazed how many turn up and expect to pay £1 to watch the football.
