Haha I meant it's so "guaranteed" that Bayern will go through etc that there just has to be an upset.

I've probably just made that sound more retarded

As disappointed as I am, I feel proud to be an Arsenal fan. First time I've been able to say that for a while.

No British representation?

After 532 minutes of CL football, Carl Jenkinson goes through the campaign not losing a tackle.

"So, Arsenal's elimination means there is no representative from the Premier League in the Champions League quarter-finals for the first time since the 1995/96 season."

I forgot it was that long ago!

Thought Arsenal were shocking tonight apart from the first 5 mins and last 10. Bayern were even worse though which helped

To be honest, Bayern were always in control of this game and never looked like there could be an "upset". They conceded 2 lucky goals, but so what? They are through and they deserve it. Tonight they played to rest their players for the upcoming more important bundesliga matches so they can clinch the title as early as possible.

Feel sorry for Arsenal going so close yet going out because of the away goals rule.

This.

As much as it was nice to see Arsenal play well it seemed like a rather meaningless performance seeing as Bayern just looked like they were cruising through the whole time.

Why don't managers put players on the post? Just bewilders me all the time. If they had someone on the post that would not have gone in.

I'm almost 90% certain that there is statistical analysis that shows that the extra man in the box is more beneficial than a man on the post, its just like zonal marking, probably, in that when you concede its because you haven't done your job properly and the system looks bad.

Putting dwarf Lahm on the post wouldnt have helped much anyway
