I know but you see them given all the time. All the time. It's usually a nervy one when that happens.

Nervy yeah but still the right call.

5 attempts forArsenal. 3 of those from the pen.

Make that 6 great pass from the Ox

gandalf

Cmon Ozil keep it going!!

Underground

Won't get much bigger chances than that.. Should have taken it.

Iwobi doing a tonne of decent defensive work.

tayto lover

We are so used to referees giving s**t decisions against us that when we actually get a decision we can't believe it.

Rubbish. Kos got the ball and then was kicked, Peno all day every day

It's very soft. He comes in with a high boot and just gets there first. Lucky for Arsenal. I'm not complaining because I'd like to see them win, but it was soft.

His boot was barely above waist height.

Bull****. He won the ball and got kicked. Simple as.

greendom

Don't turn your back Mesut!

mansize

On the ascendancy

greendom

Xhaka lucky not to be booked there

gandalf

Looks like Lewandowski's put the wrong kicking boots on tonight, hopefully!!

tayto lover

We could easily be 3 - 1 up now.

omega man

Really came back into that game.

gandalf

Can't believe we're going in all square at half time!

greendom

Just knew Ozil would do nothing with that.

Half got a lot better as it went on

wandatowell

Took us a little while to get going but we are doing well.

Best chances fell to us!

Arne_Saknussem

Inept stuff for most of that first half but any sort of decent performance in the second half and there are goals there for Arsenal.

Welbz for Iwobi at HT please.

KaiserGunner

I think it's clear as day that Coquelin isn't good enough anymore. Offers nothing on the ball and can't even do his defensive duties. That goal was all on him, pathetic defending. There is another goal in this for us, just need to be more clinical there, Xhaka should have been doing better with his. At least we aren't losing at the moment, so I'm happy enough.

Kills me to say it but I'd nearly rather Welbeck in for Ozil, move Iwobi to #10 and have a proper press going. There's a win in this for us...

gandalf

Time to mute RTE!

Roddy23

In fairness Sadlier is bang on about Coquelin for Robben's goal.

mansize

Back in it after a sluggish start

I think they've been fair enough.

I feel sick, I agreed with some of what Dunphy said

See what you're saying but Ozil won't be coming off.(Not that anyone will before 68-72mins)

Elneny for Coq too.

2ndcoming

It's George Hamilton that kills me, thought the panel were fair enough.

tayto lover

We will have to start the second-half much better than we did the first.
We are well in this and another Arsenal goal could really disrupt Bayern.
They don't look a great side when things go against them.

Arne_Saknussem

Their confidence looks quite brittle alright, could be a case of which team out-bottles the other in the second half.

Sanchez trying to do it all himself. FFS/

Has Ospina ever completed a match without going down injured?

wandatowell

Ah ****e two early subs for injuries

2 subs used up just like that....this could be a killer blow.

Quazzie

Gab and Cech on. :eek:

tayto lover

FFS we're in trouble now for sure.

greendom

Booking surely

Wow tough start to the second half

Skylinehead

What really?

Roddy23

Ah for crying out loud.

The battle of the bottlers?

I like it.

5star02707

Not our Kos! Hopefully it's nothing serious

Marcus Antonius

How was the charge on Ospina not a card? They're an awfully sporting crowd also...

gandalf

Fs!

jester77

Too easy

Urgh. First chance they get.

greendom

Gibbs left exposed by Iwobi

Skylinehead

Mustafi way too weak
