how bad was Bendtner today? I didn't see it but he couldn't have been worse than he was in the first leg

hell he's the reason that the second leg was even necessary

Missing Cesc, arguably the best set-up man in the game and Arshavin hurts Arsenal a lot. Not taking anything away from Liverpool who played lights out yesterday. Go PL.

Like I said before on another board, Bendtner looks great against lesser opponents, and terrible against better sides. Adebayor is far superior to the Dane but he may not be with Arsenal next year. I like Eduardo but his goals so far have been against Coca-Cola Championship sides. I think he'll be fully fit for the quarters.

I'm just saying that Arsenal was out muscled by an Italian team. For a team that prides themselves on possession, their passing was atrocious.

We still had more possession than Roma and better passing accuracy.

Neither team looked that impressive, though.

I'm pretty sure we're gonna bow out in the next round.

And yes, Bendtner stifled at least 3 good attacking attempts last night. Fuuuuck it was so annoying.

ETA: The only positives last night were probably Diaby and Denilson. Diaby was wonderful on the ball and did well getting foward, taking space when it was given. Denilson also did a great job of disarming/pickpocketing guys he took on.

Well, if we have Cesc and Ade back, that would be a major lift.

It all depends on who we draw in the quarters. Are we good enough to win the whole thing? No. But, I can see us getting in the finals.

The draw is next Friday.
