    Enjoyed the commentators not recognising Pierre Gasly in the crowd.

    It was a decent strike from Ruiz but actually took a big deflection off Saliba which wasn't immediately obvious from the angles shown. Without that it probably goes middle of the goal.

    In a way, the way that played out may do Arsenal good.

    TBF that was nothing to do with VAR, just multiple officials who don't know the handball law.

    I will be cheering for Spurs to win the Europa League just to.shut up the many Manchester United fans that love in Hampshire, and don't have the guts to support a local team or someone other than Liverpool, Ratcliffe's club, or Chelsea. I could even forgive a local for supporting Manchester City but not the other Lot!

    What's the difference in a glory hunter supporting a City, an Arsenal or a Chelsea?

    Glory Glory Man United for me.

    So the Europa League final is between 16th and 15th in ‘the greatest league in the world’

    And the two sides with the biggest resources, it would have been nothing short of disgraceful if they hadn't got there. It would be great not to see Ratcliffe's team playing anywhere in Europe. Whoever wins, it is galling to think that oñe of them mérits entry to the CL after their shocking performances domestically.

    I hope we are cheering for Real Betis in the Conference Final. We don't want the Chelsea fans gloating all summer, do we?

    Pool the turnover of Tottenham and Ratcliffe's mob, and it is probably more than the combined ones of all the other clubs that reached the last 16 of the Europa League, so no great achivement really. Oñe more aside, Onana cost more to buy than it cost Athletic to assemble their squad.. So again, no great achivement!
