PSV banging them in means that if we lose to them away and draw at Zurich we’d be second on goal difference.
Managed to get to the game last night, first time in more than a year. The reports are spot on, even in a “tourist” crowd like this the atmosphere was a step up. We were above the PSV fans who are breaking chairs, plastering Kings Cross with stickers that said “Fudge you, we’re PSV fans”, and needing a drum for every chant, they were absolutely humiliated in the end.
Recap on the game was spot on, they created a couple of good chances on the break but squandered them. We just couldn’t click in the final 3rd, and Xhaka’s right footed first time volley finish on the half bounce was sublime compared to the rest of our efforts.
Gakpo, their skipper and best player, is in the Arsenal laundry after he reappeared having fallen out of Tomi’s pocket.
