Shoutout De Vrij for managing to make me cuss him out even after being near perfect for 96 minutes.

Excellent win with a bit of fortune on the penalty.

We have been winning ugly the whole season, we have lost our elegance of last year.

But maybe we wake up on the road and hit our lovely peak again.

Don't have one.
Gigantic win tbh. I wrote a couple of weeks ago that I suspect our biggest problem in defense this season is individual concentration and motivation, and so far our run in cl proofs that. For me, it's more than obvious this season our players simply have bigger erection when playing cl compared to domestic league. Hopefully inzaghi gives them viagra or something for the league games :lol:

In the end, Bisseck was our best CB, first half De Vrij. Pavard had too many mistakes, I'm starting to lose faith in him.

Thuram is more out of form than Lautaro.

Calhanoglu and Darmian are battling it out for the MOTM.

Inzaghi saw only our defence could win this one, good on him to see that.

Double marking Saka was a good idea, because even double marked he still had good passes and crosses. Luckily Havertz played most of the match.

I swear Inzaghi almost had me with the Asllani sub.

I was hoping for Bastoni but there wasn't a point in getting another CB in. Then I expected Dumfries out for Dimarco and switch Darmian, but Saka got shellshock every time he was doubled by Darmian so that didn't make sense either :D

If only we had another forward instead of Correa that could have been used there.

Cute crossing by Arsenal, must be said. Let's hope Napoli tries the same shit.

Probably didn't want to risk Bastoni due to his cramp last game and Bisseck had a good game and wasn't gassed at all.

Napoli's Conte are definitely a bad fit for the LimoneBall, as was Atletico de Madrid. We can win tho.

At this point we'll have to have our best game of the season for Napoli. But if we managed to score 4 against Juventus, I'm sure we could score at least 2 against Napoli.

Interesting, I actually think we counter Conte's ball; style wise, reason why they cannot handle ATA. The only thing that worries me is the energy level of both teams.

Job done. Best defensive display of the season. Great position now to qualify for top 8.

This game was trash I cant believe we won.

I NEVER want to see bisseck and darmian on the left together. Two right footed players in LCB and LWB is a catastrophe. No width and theyre easily cornered into giving away possession. Thats what ruined any attacking potential we had.

Defensively they were awesome.
