German/austrian analysts said it perfectly: Arsenal was too weak, especially in the second leg, Sporting wanted to win way way more. Penalty shootout is a gamble imo, but the 4th pen from Arsenal was crap.

Honestly baffled by the decisions made tonight. You either don't give a shit about this tourney or go 100% for it, but instead Arteta and the team did some stupid middle ground that fucked us over far worse

Yep wasted people and energy on this game

So the quarter finals are pretty stacked imo, and look far more interesting than the Champions League quarters which will be full of stomps.

Watch USG win the whole thing. Definition of dark horse, they can definitely take a big scalp at least.

go Napoli! They've looked as good as anyone this season tbh. Benfica has a fair shot vs Inter, too.

But yea lol that top half looks better. City and Bayern are both justified in cursing a bit at this.

Both Feyenoord and St Gilles in with a shot imho. Once again top half looks stronger than the bottom

I doubt Bayern will win against Man City, rest looks likely.

Viera sacked by Crystal Palace - I don't get it; don't think they were ever a threat to be in a relegation fight?

EDIT: Apparently 3 points off the zone but without a replacement its a bit suss of a move.

Papu Gomez paid a witch to slow down Lo Celso’s recovery so that he would have a spot in the Argentine World Cup roster. This is the true reason that Papu Gomez will not be present during the World Cup winners’ celebratory friendlies.

Haaland with 8 goals in his previous 125 minutes of play time. That sounds like another record of sorts.

Yeah my favourite highlight from a commentator was when an Aussie guy i think was it, called him a cheat code, he legit is a freaking cheat code. Im happy, we lose Messi and Ronaldo and gain this guy, im glad there is still people breaking boundaries in this game!
