At least if they aren't playing at the weekend they can double up as professional cyclists.

So good from Saka and great to see Aubam scoring goals again

This is a bit old now but I've only just seen it so apologies if it was already discussed.

No idea if the numbers are true. But being classed as asthmatic means they're allowed to take certain performance-enhancing substances that players are banned from taking otherwise. 22 asthmatics. Hmmmmmm.

“According to a source close to the club, of 35 players 22 are asthmatic – 63% of the squad, over five times higher than the 12% UK average.”

Which source is that then ?

It’s also about 7 months old now and zero credible confirmation to back up and faceless claim ?

Oh poo...

Lance Armstrong said that

You must have missed the last page of the plan. The ground will rise / float with water like houses do in Holland ?.

The one issue I haven't seen resolved is traffic links. The current set up along that road is not fit for purpose so hopefully they have a cunning plan to move 52k people in and out on match day whilst also dealing with the existing traffic that goes along there.

I`m hoping they may run a ferry from the wirral direct to the ground but even if its to the pier head its only a walk away, as for cars i am sure there must be something in place to get planning permission.

1 stupid error and staring down the gun of away goals we seem to want to try and defend and sit deeper and deeper against a side who have offered so little and we should already be home and safe

Utter lack of pace in central midfield and defence leaves us sitting deeper and deeper, badly need a pair of legs in midfield (apart from Partey we loaned them all out in January )

Hey, I wonder if you could back up the claim that Indian umpires are biased without evidence.

 

[fundy]

and there it is, yet another stupid error

 

[MegaSteve]

Oh, poo... AGAIN

 

[fundy]

great hit from tierney, seems were relying on the same 3 or 4 to dig us out as usual

 

[fundy]

brilliant from saka again any chance anyone wants to help the kid out

 

[fundy]

Well somehow were through, thanks Saka Tierney and Aubam

Enjoyable watch for us neutrals, seemed like Arsenal only game to life in the 2nd half once Benfica went 2-1 up.

 

[MegaSteve]

Bum clencher finish... But through...
Still masses of improvement required in parts...

glad someone enjoyed it lol

 

[fundy]

For all the talk of too many games and players needing rest utterly amazed to see Bruno Fernandes playing for united when 4-0 up from the first leg

What’s not to like, couple of decent goals, mistakes, team coming from behind, English team through and the despair and relief on this thread.

They will also save space when building the trophy room ?

With the lack of success of Arsenal , Spurs , West Ham since they moved to shiney new stadiums it will be interesting to see how this moves forward.

Wut? ??

A shiny new stadium has not turned out too bad for Man City ??
