Nice analysis. Was at Wembley and my copium was we both had one good quarter/ they had one more big chance and it was a gift. Been meaning to go back and watch but a bout of norovirus severely dented my inclination. Glad you could put in the hard yards.

Thanks. I feel a bit naked when there is a match I haven’t watched sitting out there. If this was something before the semi final for a league cup I might just skip it but it is a final so I just can’t.

I think one of my big divergent opinions is that for all the talk about lack of technical level from the match, I don’t fully agree and think it’s more we tried something different and were missing Eze, Odegaard, and Merino here.

The reactions to a big setback were a touch hyperbolic? Tell me something new. FWIW I also saw Rodri play a ten yard pass into touch. But we were disappointing playing out for the first half of the second half. I remember being particularly frustrated by the forsworn chip to White.

And by the time Arteta moved to fix it the game was gone. Sometimes the other team scores their shots.
