It's funny how good Woolwich fans seem to think they are and are yet seemingly oblivious to the fact that they have the likes of Elneny, Nketiah, Nelson and Vieira on the bench. Fulham level players at best.

Without the Tuchel effect which evened the tie out more than it should, Bayern would have been strong favourites over the two games.

Tuchel is a much better coach than Arteta. He’s won a champions league and got PSG to their only European final. He may not be very likeable but in these situations he’s a positive if anything.

I think ability wise they're good enough, their bench is decent now and they have a pretty strong squad but they're just rank out and out bottlers, they don't have the mentality that these other top teams do.

If you look at it they've just constantly bottled stuff under Arteta, the numerous cup competitions when they were favs, top 4 in the Conte season, the league title last season and it's looking like the same case again this season. Woolwich fans seem to think that football is only played on paper and don't take in the mental aspect of the game or the experience.

He's been pretty garbage for Bayern though, hence why he was sacked. He had alienated half the squad within weeks of his arrival.

They are stronger than what they have been, but are still a few players short squad wise. They are desperate for a striker and have been for a while now. And neither of their keepers are top quality. Teams generally don't win stuff unless you have a world-class goalkeeper. Raya and Ramsdale are good, but none are exactly Petr Cech.

They've also ran the likes of Saka and Rice into the ground, which is why they've both really struggled performance wise over the last month or so.
 
Everything Arteta does is a gimmick.

The dog, the lightbulb, the drawings on the whiteboard, the clock, the speakers blaring out YNWA on the training ground.

None of it’s helped their mentality or their ability to handle pressure in any way, it just looks daft when they collapse at the end of every season
