"..... ?I think PSG were the toughest one, especially the way they play football.
?Arsenal is completely different. They rely on set-pieces. They love to play the long balls, they love to fight for the second balls, it was a completely different game. ....."

Easy almost scored a great goal, Dec had one saved by the keeper's legs that B almost followed up and B could have had another couple. While they had one decent move and that was that.
And if you don't like set pieces, don't concede corners or FKs. That Supermechano guy should have been sent off for one FK we almost scored from. If he hadn't conceded that set piece our lad would have been clean through on goal.
Who is this ****? Isn't kimmich some sort of Korean vegetable?
Now this:
"The match report from Spiegel summed up the wider context of the result: “Arsenal are number one in Europe. Bayern are number one in Germany.” It was Bayern’s first defeat in 19 games, emphasising Arsenal’s feat. ..... The German outlet remarkably awarded Arsenal’s set piece coach Nicolas Jover man of the match. The report described Arsenal as a threat from every corner and free-kick, turning Bayern into “a panicked mess”."
Dear God. We score one corner and it's like we're Pullis's Stoke. But what a dastardly cunning corner routine, though, swinging the ball in so it gets to jumping head height six yards out in the middle of the goal. No-one's ever done that before, have they?
"Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.
"But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."
It's not so much the corners and set pieces themselves, it's that we force you to defend your penalty area for long periods. Nobody likes that and Bayern especially are not used to it; even they are bound to make mistakes eventually. Even if you don't concede from them directly, your desperation to get out will make you sloppy.
We messed with their heads. "A panicked mess" if you will.
