    Arsenal powder puff, zero cutting edge. AM pick them off with a proper midfielder and striker.
    Arsenal have a world class striker who can't play because of a very stupid rule that is being removed next season

    I don't really care what they call it, I have seen Liverpool win it in both guises.
    But are you old enough to have seen Liverpool win the English League title?

    In the other semi, I'm not sure either of the teams has got the ball in the opposition penalty area once. Which suits Marseille. Leading 2-0 on aggregate.

    Arsenal have Chambers and Mustafi at centre back, I can't see that game staying 1-0.

    The name has just always irritated me purely because it's clearly not a league for champions only.

    Promotion play-offs? Personally I don't favour them. I don't think teams which finish third or even as low as fourth should have a crack at promotion at the potential expense of a team who finished second. However, I also used to feel the old two-up, two-down system was a bit brutal so my preferred option would be for the second-bottom and second-top teams only to have a play-off. Granted, the play-offs in England are seen as a big deal but the bottom line is it comes down to making money.
    I think we qualified for the cup winner's cup in the 70s as did many other non cup winners. Teams qualify for competitions by various means. Relegated teams get to play in Europe etc.

    It doesn't matter what the competition is called, it's the qualifying rules that are important.

    Were you allowed to stay up late the night they last won the league?

    Been there, done it, got the tee shirt.It's great watching the most successful British club ever in the European Cup/ Champions League. Five times soon to be six.

    We have been in more European cup finals than all the other top English clubs combined!

    Game sums up Arsenal and Wenger's last few years - all show and not enough substance. Far too many passes, wanting to score the perfect goal. Fanciful stuff which will only take you so far, as Wenger has seen time and time again.

    Think it sums up Atletico to a tee. Two very typical Atletico Madrid performances over the two legs.

    Took the words right out of my mouth. No sympathy for them tonight.

    Atletico must be stick-ons for the Europa. The other semi is nothing like as slick.

    The game in Madrid was more like a Champions League match. Superb speed and control.

    Just saw the highlight of that, I'd be going radio rental if I was a Salzburg fan.

    Commentators not mentioning two Salzburg players offside for their goal. Energy drink corporate cocksucking ****s behaving like brats.

    Diego Costa is brilliant. What a pairing with Griezmann. And with that defence I reckon Atletico are the best team in the world right now.

    Arsenal were brutal, no imagination on the ball and struggled really badly in the final third, took Wiltshere off and he was one of the better players and left Ramsay on who was atrocious, Wenger playing his favourites card there, Wiltshere looked none too happy in the dugout.

    Whoever takes over at Arsenal needs to have a clear out. Too many players been at the club too long and just too comfortable. They need some winners and battlers to shake things up and change perception of Arsenal, just as Lennon has done with Hibs. Their last winner went to Man U.

    What I couldn't beleive was Robbie Frickin Savage constantly saying that Arsenal were the better side and unlucky....Jeez being happy to pass the ball about in pretty ways, but managing virtually no shots on goal is NOT GOOD FOOTBALL. Atheltico should have won by 3 or 4 with the chances they had.

    I don't watch much la liga, but amazing that they haven't conceded in their last eleven home games, and only four goals all season. They will be massive favourites in the final.
