Arsenal just look like crap. Milan is sitting back with tons of defenders but there is no creativity from Arsenal on attack and they don't look threatening at all. Milan are only trying to counter, and the Arsenal back line lack of chemistry is just obvious. They have no clue when to step, who to defend it's just pathetic.
The lack of meaningful pressure from Arsenal really is astounding.

If Boateng wasn't a douchefag, he had Robinho right there

Antonini kicks the keeper in the face, so he holds his own face.

So does the Djourou sub negate another halftime sub?

Arsenal with Ramsey out there can't really link up with RVP or slip a ball through to anyone set to goal. Rosicky is completely ruining the left side, he is playing in the center which is already extremely crowded and trying to play some quick 1-2's on the edge of the Milan box. Gibbs isn't getting forward, RVP hasn't had the ball sent his way near enough. Despite the pitch being a POS on the wings Arsenal haven't tried to set up Walcott for a dash against Milan's left side.
Milan are just kicking it forward to Zlatan, Robinho, or Prince who are then just making one simple pass between themselves and the Arsenal defenders are nowhere to be found because they have no clue who to mark and are playing some slow and dangerous offsides trap.
If anything, Arsenal will give up more goals playing this dangerous offsides trap now with Djourou out there and having Szczesny playing so shoddy.

Yes. Only subs I could see would be Henry for Rosicky at like the 75th. I don't know if Wenger has enough faith in Ox to send him out there on the road in the CL.
Arsenal can have an offensive spark with a sub or two, but I don't know how they improve on the defensive end. Just play normal, no trap, and be aggressive on Zlatan I guess.

Yeah, I took a tour of the San Siro right after Christmas and there were heavy duty trucks laying sod, grass, etc. I have pics, actually.

praying for a 2-1 finish. That 1 goal aggregate deficit, and the away goal would be huge for the return leg at the Emirates 
Posted on 2/15/12 at 2:50 pm to ATLienTiger
I'm hoping for three goals scored, specifically in the 54th, 56th, and 60th minutes.

Henry coming on for Theo

Hmmmm Henry for Walcott. Theo wasn't involved much at all, but Rosicky was the one who should have come off. Henry plays further up the pitch than Walcott which should put more pressure on Milan. Since he's now playing as a 2nd striker/attacking mid.
Still thinking/hoping the final sub is Ox on for Rosicky at the 75.
Looks like RVP is playing off of Henry as an AM, and Ramsey is out wide right. Don't know how I feel about having 2 wingers who want to always drift central and force balls forward.

It looks like Ramsey and rosicky are out wide now... Wonder how that'll do
Posted on 2/15/12 at 2:56 pm to Leauxgan
that could be the tie right there. Such porous defending from Arsenal, Sagna hasn't yet put pressure on Zlatan this match.

Ya'll back 4 shite the bed big in this one. There's always next year at least, hopefully not for Liverpool's sake but maybe.

Our offense isn't helping that cause either
