Surprised by the calm with which the Ospina decision has been received. I think it’s absolutely mental.
When we beat Bayern last season, Cech had an absolute stormer. I couldnt care less what rotation policy is, when you play BAYERN MUNICH in the Champions League, you select your best keeper and that absolutely is Cech.
I don’t think our best keeper is absolutely Cech and based on his performances this season I’m not sure how anyone could say that it’s absolute.
Yeah, definitely not much in it.
Ospina has been great in the CL this season.
Absolutely no reason to drop him for Cech.
For all the talk of team selection and lineups it’ll mean nothing if we show up as disorganised as we have been for most of this season. Some of those goals we conceded to Watford and Chelsea were just diabolical. Whatever the lineup we absolutely have to defend well as a team from back to front. Completely unlike how Barca went about their business last night. Can’t afford to give those midfield pockets away like we did against Hull. If Coquelin was still covering gaps like he was in 2015 he would been a definite starter but at the moment he’s a real hindrance.
I’m proper looking forward to this one now. No matter how out of shape we look, Champions League knockout games will always get me excited about football again.
I just hope we go there with a well excuted game plan, and don’t give them any silly goals or advantages to Bayern. This is the most comfident I’ve felt about a knockout game vs Bayern, in fact the most confident I’ve felt about a knockout game in about the past six years (forgot about the Monoco game…).
Regardless of whether we win/lose/draw tonight, I’d like us to go into the 2nd leg with more than blind hope.
Well from the murmurings on the Internet I think we can assume that the lineup will be:
------------------Ospina
Bellerin–Musti—Kosc—Gibbs
--------Coquelin------Xhaka--------
---------------------Ozil-----------------
Ox-----------Sanchez--------Welbeck
I guess that’s one gone. Should be between Ox and Iwobi now who’s going to get that wing spot today.
e:/ oh, our answer seems to be there already…
depending on how reliable you think he is.
FC Bayern Munchen! Wir singen, wir tanzen lalala
whisper it quietly but think the Arsenal might get the 3 points tonight 
This x 1000. If we play like we did against Hull we are in for a whooping. Watched the game back and we were so bad defensively it was unreal.
Xhaka owes us a performance and Dat Guy is in form. It could be the Hofbrau talking but i expect us to score an away goal (unlike last nights fixtures) and for us to come away with a positive result
Theres something different about watching Arsenal in away Europeans games. They just feel so important.
Looking forward to tonight even if I expect a spanking.
I hate u guys, already drinking, 4 in the afternoon and I’m fucking getting ready to go to work. Coyg we can do this.
1-1 or 2-1 Arsenal.
Why? The Ox deserves to start on current form.
@AbouCuellar hates Ox.
Heading off to the Allianz now, going for a somewhat implausible 1-2 to us
Put down the beer! 
I’m still going for a narrow defeat, but I hope you’re right.
I really have no idea what to expect.
5-1 to Bayern, I can see it happen.
1-1 or 2-2, I can see it happen.
1-2 to Arsenal, I can see it happen.
Ahh for fucks sake.
