    Arsenal aren't out yet. They can score three goals in France. Monaco aren't that good.
    Will they? It's a long shot, but it's not impossible. If they score the first goal, then it changes everything.

    They could well get back in the tie temporarily, but when the pressure is back on they usually bottle it

    It could happen. We're in good form and scoring. We look like we've got our confidence and flow back and we have Ramsey, Ozil, Walcott who have all come back and are in form. If we can score early in Monaco then it's game on.

    Nothing is guaranteed though and the only thing we can say with any real accuracy is that the Chavs are already out <laugh>

    Sounds more like a ****ing nightmare, to be honest! <laugh>

    Might not be that bad if it does happen. Get through, get a better side, play more games, help the coefficient and get smashed. <ok>

    (1) Getting to the FA cup Semi-final

    (2) Finishing above the Spuds (again)

    (3) Having a nicer kit than Burnley's

    It's a dead cert I'm telling you <ok>

    So you aren't big game specialists in failure after one result against the worst United team for a generation?

    We beat City away, Utd away. We're still in the Champions League, the Semi Final of the FA cup and our Premier league form is two place higher than the Chavs <ok>

    I've heard some outlandish claims, but this takes the biscuit.

    You still bottled Monaco at home. Monaco FFS.

    “We know that [in the] first leg, we weren’t really up for it mentally,” Mertesacker said. “From the start, you could feel that and, at times, we could feel that there was a bit of a pressure and we couldn’t cope with that

    Monaco would be in the bottom half of the table, maybe the relegation zone in the Premier League

    Fair play. You turned it around.

    Jose realised you couldn't out football any side so he reverted to ultra defensive bis parking tactics. <whistle>

    Some of the UIR or NVL's comments just show he doesn't understand or have a reasonable command of the English language.
