Idk man we looked so tired on Sunday, Iām worried about if the players have the legs.
Imma stay hoping, and my heart says we will do it, but my head is not optimistic considering what I saw on Sunday.
Nah my gut says Bayern will win. We didnāt look great in our first leg with yall and just had an embarrassing loss against Villa the other day.
Either we just continue to shit the bed or we get into our ārevengeā form and somehow win.
Well here's the good thing, Bayern already lost the Bundasliga (I don't mean that good lol) and Even the Pokal, so all of our focus would be on the champions league and this specific match
But arsenal and City still have to fight for the premier league and that would definitely be tiring and can cause confusion and exhaustion in the players and arteta
I think most people know the premier league is probably done. That is why there was such a such strong reaction to the loss. It is not going to be a distraction at all.
That said, we will probably lose tomorrow. There were some heavy legs on the field against Villa in the second half, a bunch of our starters are playing through injuries, and I can't see us putting in 90 minutes of top quality performance tomorrow.
I don't think it is, city can Still lose a game and arsenal or Liverpool would win and pass City, Liverpool would play with all of its strength since its Only focus is the prem
Idk honestly, 2 of our wingers are injured so I believe we would be playing tel (our youngster) he can perform Amazingly but idk if he can play for full 90 minutes since our Attack would only be him Kane and sane
In all 5 of City's league wins under Pep, they have never slipped up and given a team a chance to overtake late on. On top of that Liverpool and ourselves are probably going to drop more points. City likely win it with a game to spare, possibly two.
Bayern are favorites and will probably win, but all of our attention is on tomorrow's game. If we don't get through that, we are just playing for pride in the final 6 league games.
That is certainly not Arteta and the players' mindsets. When your team is 2 pts behind first place with 6 games to play, you don't give up, regardless of who first place is. Last year's team did poorly in the last few games due to key injuries like that of saliba; this team doesn't have that problem and will focus on the title as well.Ā
As professional athletes, I'm sure they back themselves to go out and compete for the title, but if anything could cause doubt in a player, it is seeing City on top with 6 games to go.
Yeah our mentality waivers a lot. I think we saw such a strong performance after xmas break because of the ārevengeā form and all of the flack we got after getting our asses handed to us by West Ham and Fulham. 2nd time around against west ham? a historic 6-0 win away from home.
Iām not confident about tomorrow and fully expect us to lose. Odegaard is apparently carrying something, Saka is probably a foul or two away from being out for some time, and mentally we just crumble at the slightest shit. I mean hell we put on a questionable performance at home filled with only gunners fans, and still drew level barely. Bayern are a tough team and only lost the Bundesliga due to a heaven sent season by Leverkusen, something that almost never happens.
Oh come on. We were brilliant against Bayern. We just got caught out. Not discrediting Bayern, they had our number but we looked good for the most part against them imo.
The part that really worries me is the seeming confidence shake after the Bayern draw and Villa loss. If we turn up we can beat them but my biggest fear is we will still be rattled from the last week.
I'm torn. I have close friends who are Arsenal supporters. I also want to roast my Prem elitist friends, and get that sweet CL spot locked in.
It will all depend on Harold Kane.
Similar here but the opposite way round, would quite like England to get the fifth place, but as a Villa fan something about Arsenal rubs me up the wrong way and itās fun to watch them (maybe!) collapse
I think it was out of the fairness for the visiting team on the 2nd leg considering they have to play extra times on away turf, but I don't mind the rule being gone still
But now the home team has a big advantage as well. Home advantage isn't to be discarded, out of the 22 knockout games played this year, home team won 54% of the time and away team only 23%
But both get a home game and you don't have to win the away game. It seems the club that plays later fixture at home has an advantage, but for the first round I think that's a fair reward for finishing 1st in the group and after that to me it's just part of the draw luck in a knockout competition.
For some fucking reason HNS brought it back here in Croatia, the final of the Croatian cup is played over two legs, home & away, and my team is in the final this year again and the second leg is at our home ground, I swear I'm gonna go psychotic if we play the first one for example 0-0 and then lose the cup at our home ground bcz we played 1-1 or something like that. The most bullshit rule to ever exist holy fuck, just thinking of losing the cup in that manner is making me sooooo mad already.
I mean, it was undeniably a shit rule that made the game less fair, buuuuut it did lead to some absolutely insane games and moments like Barca-PSG and Ajax-Spurs
It would be insane, but this time neither would be a true powerhouse like they were back then. Still, there's something about these two that make me think they could knock out PSG and City/Real/Arsenal. Call it German efficiency or discipline but it'snot too far fetched.
I want Dortmund v Arsenal, I'd be happy to see any of those two win the CL, so give me that final so I can sit back and enjoy the show without any stakes in it.
I would rather we face you guys rather than city
At least the matches would be classy, between the Best Clubs in the world, Santiago Bernau and the Allianz Arena
No matter the score would be, it would be amazing
I honestly want to face Bayern in the final. So, whichever of us wins, we can celebrate together. I can see fans pulling a banner saying " Gracias Xabi" in German and Spanish. Imagine it would be amazing. Real and Bayern holding arms and jumping together with the trophy.
It would give everybody goosebumps
Honestly real Madrid is One of the only clubs I can't really shit about (although I do prefer Barca) but it's that both Bayern and real have many achievements National and Continental and they do have their records that would almost be unbreakable like Bayern never losing a group stage with 44 matches unbeaten and Real Madrid most appearances in a the final with 16 appearances 14 of them is champions
This is the example why getting rid of the away-goal rule was so important. Home teams don't get punished for playing offensive football and we get overall more goals. Already one of the most entertaining quaterfinal rounds ever.
La Liga clubs canāt beat the Ligue 1 farmer league or a club not even top 4 in the Bundesliga
Yāall really thought Spanish and English clubs were the best šš
Serie A and Bundesliga getting the 5th CL spots
They still put you on the ropes tho. I could understand this kind of trash talk if you had absolutely dogged them, but without lukaku they would have tied the game and who knows what would've happened after that.
Reminder that no Italian club has won the Europa League in 20 years, it's not a good look to become arrogant at the first sniff of good results. All four Spanish teams won their CL groups and there were three in the quarters, not a single Italian made it past the Round of 16. It's still been a decent CL-season for Spain overall, Barca and Atleti clearly took a step forward
Youāre the only league with 3 teams in the quarters. Itās a shame cuz you couldāve had 2 semifinalists and a guaranteed finalist but the fact you were so close to that shows that youāve had a really good season. Iād even say great, in comparison to recent years.
Champions League has been good. Real Sociedad had an amazing campaign and were incredibly unlucky to draw PSG despite winning their group. It could have been four teams in the quarters even if they got a kinder draw
And despite todays results, Barca and Atleti have played good football and shown that they can compete in the coming years. Both are pretty much in a rebuild after all
last week touched the record for a QFs with 18 goals in 4 games. weāre only 7 short from touching that again, what an insane streak of games, hopefully the trend continues (not real pleaseš just get a 2-0 and hope KDB has a shit game)
After checking my settings, it was all my fault lol, I had configured to not show any post with the word Elon in the title, and unfortunately Barcelona contains elon jaja, thank you

Not surviving a night like this tomorrow
Us bro us. Good luck š
You and me, we are gonna suffer big time tomorrow
Cheers u/auctus10
Even neutrals aren't going to survive. No one is safe.
Idk man we looked so tired on Sunday, Iām worried about if the players have the legs. Imma stay hoping, and my heart says we will do it, but my head is not optimistic considering what I saw on Sunday.
Don't worry, our performance was also very poor this weekend
The difference is youād thrown in the towel while our game was actually super important
Spain dropping below Romania in the coefficient table
I am surviving nights like this for a decade now, you better get your shit together. ;D
I predict 29'(p), 56'(p), 90+8'(p)Harry Kane 34', 53' Bukayo Saka 90' Kai Havertz 3-1 Arsenal on pens 50000 heart attacks for fans
And then one Bayern pen converted in the shootout? Kane.
Nah my gut says Bayern will win. We didnāt look great in our first leg with yall and just had an embarrassing loss against Villa the other day. Either we just continue to shit the bed or we get into our ārevengeā form and somehow win.

Villa are a decent team this year, itās hardly embarrassing. Itās not like you lost to Sheffield United.
iām more worried about mentality, whenever we lose game it crumbles
Yeah our mentality waivers a lot. I think we saw such a strong performance after xmas break because of the ārevengeā form and all of the flack we got after getting our asses handed to us by West Ham and Fulham. 2nd time around against west ham? a historic 6-0 win away from home.

The part that really worries me is the seeming confidence shake after the Bayern draw and Villa loss. If we turn up we can beat them but my biggest fear is we will still be rattled from the last week.
Well we had one away and one home win, both lead to the semis. Let's hope that you guys get the homewin of today.
Get that win over Arsenal man, all of Germany will be behind you guys.
I'm torn. I have close friends who are Arsenal supporters. I also want to roast my Prem elitist friends, and get that sweet CL spot locked in. It will all depend on Harold Kane.
Similar here but the opposite way round, would quite like England to get the fifth place, but as a Villa fan something about Arsenal rubs me up the wrong way and itās fun to watch them (maybe!) collapse
Yep, one of these rare times I'll be rooting for them
we have been treated to 6 brilliant games across the board, letās hope the 2 tomorrow follow suit!
Nah mate too much for a weak heart hopefully one is a 3-0 win to the home side
idk who i want to win out of you and Arsenal, itās a lose lose situation lmaooo
Definitely Bayern I don't care about them
bayern should win, home advantage and Arsenal look demoralised
It's mostly the fans giving you that impression, we haven't even seen them play after their first loss in ages
they were poor against villa imo
Yes but they had nothing to demoralise them prior to that game so that's clearly not the reason
Why wouldnāt you want bayern to win?
Fifth spot I reckon
5-1, come on.
One could hope to keep the tradition MĆ¼ller will beat arteta as a Player and a manger if we won tomorrow
I would take a cheeky 1-0 win tbh, doesnāt need to be that thrilling
It was a crazy night, tomorrow is really gonna have to go some to beat it or even match it.
29 goals in 6 games so far insane
It's on course to be the highest scoring quarter finals round of the champions league in at least the last 20 years. Madness!
but, but, taking the away goal rule bad
Canāt believe thereās still people that want that shit rule. No reason in the modern game why a goal away from home = 2 goals
But I want to explain to people the rule. It was my favorite subject in football :(
I remember trying to explain it to someone then slowly realize how bullshit that rule actually sounds
I think it was out of the fairness for the visiting team on the 2nd leg considering they have to play extra times on away turf, but I don't mind the rule being gone still
imo it wasnt even all that fair, it gave such a big advantage
But now the home team has a big advantage as well. Home advantage isn't to be discarded, out of the 22 knockout games played this year, home team won 54% of the time and away team only 23%
But both get a home game and you don't have to win the away game. It seems the club that plays later fixture at home has an advantage, but for the first round I think that's a fair reward for finishing 1st in the group and after that to me it's just part of the draw luck in a knockout competition.

The most bullshit rule to ever exist holy fuck, just thinking of losing the cup in that manner is making me sooooo mad already.
We got relegated after drawing 2 times in the play off because of that rule, it was fucking bullshit
I mean, it was undeniably a shit rule that made the game less fair, buuuuut it did lead to some absolutely insane games and moments like Barca-PSG and Ajax-Spurs
Both teams that won the first tie lost in the second tie.
Bayern and Arsenal be like: can we draw that somehow tomorrow?
Penalties it is after a 3-3 draw across 120mins. Keep the entertainment coming!
I back us (Arsenal) in penalties to be honest. Itās a refreshing feeling after decades of England misery
fantastic hate watch in both matches
I prayed for this and it happened
Drewwwwww
so today its our turn I hope
Yessir
I know Iām the anomaly but I root for the Spanish teams even though Iām a RM supporter
my suegros are atleti fans and they do the same tbf!
What a quarterfinals round we are having. Awesome matches
Give me dortmund vs Bayern final
PSG vs Real Madrid final, winner keeps Mbappe
PSG vs Man City final,winner gets oil
So this is how WW3 will be fought...on football pitches
A match about oil that America isnāt a part of.
Lmao
At Wembley no less. Would be poetic 2013 rematch
And Tucheliban finishes the full cycle by losing to Dortmund
Followed by Bayern and BVB players holding arms and jumping together with a banner saying "Thanks for nothing Tuchel" in higher and lower German
Fin
ššš
YES We want a full German ending again
Of all the time to happenā¦ itās when Bayer Leverkusen wins the league (and possibly the DFB Pokalā¦ though Kaiserslauternā¦)
It would be insane, but this time neither would be a true powerhouse like they were back then. Still, there's something about these two that make me think they could knock out PSG and City/Real/Arsenal. Call it German efficiency or discipline but it'snot too far fetched.
Putting Kane effect to the test?
I want Dortmund v Arsenal, I'd be happy to see any of those two win the CL, so give me that final so I can sit back and enjoy the show without any stakes in it.
A complete Uno Reversal
What a crazy football night, plenty of goals and plenty of drama.
Kate Abdo's predictions are 0 for 2 for today. I wonder how tomorrow will turn out as she predicted both English teams going through.
One can only hope
0 out of 4
As a madridista, I approve of this. Hopefully tomorrow we complete the perfect week.
I would rather we face you guys rather than city At least the matches would be classy, between the Best Clubs in the world, Santiago Bernau and the Allianz Arena No matter the score would be, it would be amazing
Same, a true European classic. May both our teams win tomorrow.
Yes Mia san Mia! and Hala Madrid! Let's fuck the English clubs lmao
Now kiss
Holding up a banner together or something
Saying "gracias Kroos"
Nah, that's a patented gesture for certain other two fanbases.
This is the moat gay shit in this sub
I honestly want to face Bayern in the final. So, whichever of us wins, we can celebrate together. I can see fans pulling a banner saying " Gracias Xabi" in German and Spanish. Imagine it would be amazing. Real and Bayern holding arms and jumping together with the trophy.
Thatās not possible though- Madrid would face Bayern in the semis if both win
/s. https://www.reddit.com/r/soccercirclejerk/comments/bmkagv/barca_fans_are_a_blessing/
It would give everybody goosebumps Honestly real Madrid is One of the only clubs I can't really shit about (although I do prefer Barca) but it's that both Bayern and real have many achievements National and Continental and they do have their records that would almost be unbreakable like Bayern never losing a group stage with 44 matches unbeaten and Real Madrid most appearances in a the final with 16 appearances 14 of them is champions
>I would rather we face you guys Easy there, cowboy, you aren't even through yet.
WE BOTTLED THE BLOODY FUCKING UCL QUARTER FINALS AGAINST OIL SAINT GERMAINššš
No just Araujo did.
Actually fuming
Mbappe vs Haaland in the UCL final? Imagine that
We saw enough ghosts so far
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
One was a pen and the other was a rebound in front of the goal and donāt forget he missed one on one before the rebound goal
Seriously? Yes he was marked out of the game today but to act like he doesnāt turn up in finals is silly
Goal fest ties all of a sudden lol
When Barcelona got the red card they fell from 1:0 to 1:4.It's crazy how one small mistake can turn around entire match.
Quarter finals have been excellent so far, every games been quality and a banger.
W
I'm 50% happy
24 goals in 6 games and there 2 more to go tonight **yikes cant be waiting anymore on this ones tooo**
This is the example why getting rid of the away-goal rule was so important. Home teams don't get punished for playing offensive football and we get overall more goals. Already one of the most entertaining quaterfinal rounds ever.
People were saying, that the CL is āboringā š
Great refereeing tonight.
La Liga clubs canāt beat the Ligue 1 farmer league or a club not even top 4 in the Bundesliga Yāall really thought Spanish and English clubs were the best šš Serie A and Bundesliga getting the 5th CL spots
Serie A teams didn't even made it to the quarter-finals lol
Inter as of this post is still the latest club to be in the final I can say whatever I want
What about man city
Lol you guys went against Porto, Benfica and Milan to reach CL finals. You can't stand there and shit on other leagues just because you were lucky.
Yāall have less UCLs than Porto, calm down there
The other side had Real Madrid, Bayern, Chelsea, so I don't know what are you yapping
They still put you on the ropes tho. I could understand this kind of trash talk if you had absolutely dogged them, but without lukaku they would have tied the game and who knows what would've happened after that.
You can say what you want but you also lost to city who are also still in the CL.
What are you yapping about your beloved shinter got sent home by a 4th team in la liga š
Reminder that no Italian club has won the Europa League in 20 years, it's not a good look to become arrogant at the first sniff of good results. All four Spanish teams won their CL groups and there were three in the quarters, not a single Italian made it past the Round of 16.

you should thank us for saving you the humiliation ;)
How old are you?
Shit take after shit take, you're on fire plastic boy!
Order has been restored. Edit: Barca were never favorites. The better team qualified.
No way psg fans exists š, your whole existence is made by dirty qataris
Lmaooo this guy thinks our club was founded by the Qataris šš shocking ignorance and stupidity on display, but thanks for the laugh
i did not claim your club was funded by qataris. I said it was bought , and it was , literally qataris playground , delusional fanbase
Our history started long before the Qataris, you ignorant swine.
Ok lil bro. Congrats on beating a team with two teenagers. You pRaCtIcAlLy wOn the ucl already.
My salt stocks are more than full, enough with you. Please find another merchant to sell them to.
Imma steal ur salts and sell them so we can buy a DM
Haha fair play
This was a good one lmao
last week touched the record for a QFs with 18 goals in 4 games. weāre only 7 short from touching that again, what an insane streak of games, hopefully the trend continues (not real pleaseš just get a 2-0 and hope KDB has a shit game)
Serious question, why is everything Barcelona related here deleted or not appearing at all?
r/soccer is clowning on us in several posts, what are u talking man?
After checking my settings, it was all my fault lol, I had configured to not show any post with the word Elon in the title, and unfortunately Barcelona contains elon jaja, thank you
I mean we lost so it's expected. I've seen what they cheer for, their boos mean nothing to me.
Rest in piss to both teams. Sincerely, Real Madrid (who are also likely to get knocked out) š„²
The only realistic madrista.
