Jürgen Klopp said once: I don't want players who just don't want to lose but my players should be excited to win.
Ofen this season the Arsenal players were blocked and they have not gone straight to the win or goal.
I wonder if that’s the manager and his influence on the players? Klopp seemed very much an upbeat positive guy who is happy to show his emotions and enthusiasm. I’m not sure Arteta is so extroverted. He always seems a bit quiet, or complaining about decisions, I feel.
Ciao Simone,sarai contento stamani.... complimenti per il 21esimo scudetto,ha vinto la squadra piu forte,ottima la scelta di lasciare perdere la champions sennò poteva finire come l'anno scorso,comunque mi sembrava meno forte dello scorso anno,l'Inter.
Ciao ,stai bene
Ciao Paolo grazie per la tua solita sportività! Sì sono contento che la squadra abbia reagito bene dopo le ultime partite giocate in maniera non impeccabile, e soprattutto dopo le tante delusioni della scorsa stagione... ora puntiamo alla Coppa Italia, con la consapevolezza che in una partita unica non saremo favoriti rispetto alla Lazio, ma sarà 50/50. La penso anche io così, l'anno scorso (nonostante gli zero "tituli") la squadra era più forte rispetto a quest'anno, e sicuramente abbiamo vinto anche perché le altre squadre (Milan e Napoli su tutte) non hanno saputo tenere il passo, ma credo che l'anno prossimo il campionato sarà molto più competitivo! Intanto sono contento che il Milan (salvo clamorosi risultati) torni in Champions, e spero possa fare bene in Europa, come tutte le altre squadre italiane; inoltre se sarà impegnato in più fronti magari perderà qualche punticino in campionato eheh
Arsenal is back in the game. After Everton great performance, they can rebecome Kings of England, maybe this is an extra motivation to smash Atletico to night. Last year Arsenal played two half finals, the ladies conquered France and then they became queens of Europe and the men lost to Paris Scheich Germain. This year the ladies lost to Lyon, so "Can the men be masters of Europe now"?

Should be a good contest tonight. Both very good attacking teams. I hope Bayern get through, but their defence is a bit fragile. Arsenal don’t have such a good attack as either of these, but they defend well and don’t concede a lot of goals. It’s not always pretty but it’s effective. Their midfield is very good too, with many options.
Any prevailing thoughts on the CL battle of attrition between PSG and Arsenal this evening? I have seen mere snippets of the match, but am keen to hear the view of actual spectators. It seems that some players may benefit from some additional oxygen on the increasingly shorter path towards the start of the World Cup.

I thought Arsenal battled well, and as expected it was the strength of their defence versus the talent of PSG attacking players. Unfortunately their best penalty takers had been substituted by the end. Saka, Odegaard and Havertz are usually reliable to score penalties, but the manager had put other attacking options on the field in an effort to score a goal before the end. I wonder if he regrets this now? Gabriel took his first ever penalty shot for arsenal and missed. Eze doesn’t often take penalties, and that stuttering run up didn’t fool anyone. Sad for them to lose on penalties.
Pity, that a penalty had to decide....
Despite the effective defensive approach of Arsenal, as a "neutral" I am delighted for PSG to take the trophy back to France. It is sour for any given final to be decided on the basis of a penalty shoot out. Nevertheless, an attacking - and in my view significantly more entertaining - style of play should be rewarded. I think PSG can sincerely claim to be the "best of the rest" - certainly when based on the entire tournament.

Yes, I think most neutral supporters would agree with you. The Bayern semi final first leg was exciting and well worth watching, and it’s a shame that it wasn’t the final. Arsenal play to their strengths and have won the English premiership by grinding out many games and scoring from set pieces with their tall players quite often. The system has worked for them, but it isn’t usually exciting to watch, hence the unwanted nickname of “boring” Arsenal. They went undefeated in the champions league this year, I believe. If not for several of their usual penalty takers being substituted they could have won the trophy without dominating possession and playing exciting and attacking football for most of the game.
