UEFA Europa League Qualifying Rounds 2020-21

Pepe got so lucky there. Took a brutal shot instead of rolling in Willock, but the deflection took it to Willock anyway

It’s shocking that Benfica haven’t scored yet. STL have barely had 30% of the ball and have exactly 0 shot attempts or chances created.

On another note, 20 year old Benfica LB Nuno Tavares will be one of the next high priced Portuguese exports into Europe’s top leagues soon enough.

Work smarter, not harder

Work smarter, not harder

This x1000.

Pepe is such a dumb player.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

This x1000.

Pepe is such a dumb player.

And then he does that. Makes me look stupid

 

[bluesfan94]

I'm not saying I called a Pepe goal (because I didn't) but I kinda did

This x1000.

Pepe is such a dumb player.

oh i was being glib and saying he intended to do what happened

 

[robertmac43]

Nice shot from Pepe there!

 

[bluesfan94]

Glad Balogun is getting a decent amount of time

 

[bluesfan94]

Gorgeous from Willock

 

[robertmac43]

Nelson is a baller.

 

[AB13]

I did not watch the game. Did Arsenal play well?

 

[bluesfan94]

Yes. Weren't really under much pressure but definitely controlled the game

 

[AB13]

Good to hear, anything less than controlling the game against Dundalk would obviously be ridiculous.

 

[Power Man]

oooooof what an amazing assist by Bennacer

Is Saliba injured? With him not going out on loan either he should definitely be starting the EL games. Looks like it's going to be another wasted year for him.

I'm concerned he's not even alive.

Thoughts on the match...

- Runnarsson didn't have to do much, but he looked actually quite good he was called into action. Really commanded his box and looked solid on set pieces.

- Pepe was very good today, but is it that impressive against Dundalk? We'll see if he'll be able to build upon that but I doubt he's going to start against United.

- Nelson and Willock were both extremely good today, made some unbelievable plays out there.

- I thought Tierney was pretty awful when he came on.

- AMN was pretty solid, but again Dundalk.

- Nketiah is an absolute rubbish player, did nothing out there except miss a potential hattrick because he couldn't capitalise on like the seven glorious chances he got. Atrocious.

- Forgot who mentioned about CBs injured, but Mari is supposed to come back next week.

Benfica at home vs Rangers score through an own goal in the 2nd minute, then within 5 minutes at the 20 minute mark, they have a man sent off, concede an own goal of their own and then go behind 2-1. Rangers scored twice in 60 seconds.

 

[robertmac43]

Napoli currently down 1 against Rijeka.

 

[Islay1989]

Benfica has never lost a home game in the Europa League. Then Otamendi happened.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

World superstar Mario Götze's PSV are getting destroyed by PAOK.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

Benfica came back to get the draw vs Rangers. Pretty bad for Rangers especially since they had a chance to make it 4-1 and hit the post.

 

[robertmac43]

Love that we get to see some more Willock

 

[Blender]

Nice one from Iheanacho and Maddison.

 

[sabremike]

What do you think it will take for the board to sack Lennon? I know it's hard because he's a beloved club legend but he's completely out of his depth and keeping him on the job is just digging the hole deeper.

 

[AB13]

Joe Willock is the only thing keeping me awake in this game with his great off ball movement and runs into the box. Otherwise, Artetas offense is a little too based on positional play, which makes us easy to read. Need more fluidity. The spirit of Wenger lives on through Willock at least.
