those last ten minutes were a tire fire. Thank god for the best goalkeeper in the world.

before that, I thought it was okay. Not pretty by any means, but Mourinho was never going to have a different match plan.

What's sad is they weren't always like this. They had a bit of flair and arrogance at the start of the season scoring goals for fun.

Then they go to Anfield against one of the most fragile defences in the league and completely changed their way of playing. Almost as if Mourinho just pulled the handbrake on letting them go for it.

De Gea is the best pure stopper since Dominik Hasek. What a goalie. He's so good the team in front of him should be willing to be more adventurous and trust he'll bail them out, but alas...

Arsenal losing to IKEA FC and then beating Man City Sunday might be peak Arsenal. Now what seemed like meaningless penalty save by Ospina at the end of the first leg is looming mighty large.

He wanted a drink more than he wanted a save. Happens.

The best part is that hes in the opposite corner of the net....in the net...in his 'save position' just as far away from the ball as possible.

You wait for the ball to be far away before going for a drink. It is known.

the whole sequence was bizarre. Duisburg had a corner at the other end and scored, but it was waved because of offside. Then Ingolstadt quickly restarted the game and went forward, resulting in that long ball. I have no idea what the goalie was thinking though, there was a lot of time between the corner and the goal where he could have taken a sip. Instead he only goes back when the other team is already attacking the box ... crazy stuff.

to be fair though, the goalie also saved a penalty and they went on to win 2-1, so no harm done. But I'm sure he'll have to buy his teammates a few beers tonight

If today is 6-0 Porto are you going to regret not having TSN2 or be thankful?

haha, Thiago Motta in midfield. That will go well.

That's what happens when you only buy shiny expensive attackers and have to sell valuable players like Matuidi. All flair, no balance.

Extremely selfish from Mbappe. PSG have been poor so they needed that goal.
