Sure is, because I can't remember the headline, but when Arsenal got there, there was a similar enough pun made, but they actually got it wrong, because the Pushcash Arena is not on the side that they mentioned.

Got the pun wrong.

They got the pun wrong.

Yeah, I do think Arsenal fans will probably go into this game thinking, if we don't win this game...

we have a team that are going to be set up to go and take the Premier League title into next season and have the pressure off on the Premier League so they can concentrate on winning the Champions League and build upon the league because the Champions League is the ultimate prize but when you haven't won the Premier League in so long that becomes the obsession and the Champions League is quite literally bonus territory whereas next year there will be probably more pressure on them to

build on what they have achieved with the Premier League and go and win the Champions League.

I think it's going to be ultra defensive from Arteta and he kind of needs to do that.

Force his hand a little bit with the injuries that they have at right back as well because like Ben White for

All that he is a more defensive-minded player, he does link up quite well with Saka going forward.

I don't think they get that from Hincapia or Mascara as much.

Really depends who he chooses at left-back as well.

Probably will be Calafuri or Hincapia, depending on what he does at right-back.

If Timber comes in again, I don't know if he risks him in the final as a starter, but...

I think the midfield is probably the more interesting part because Lewis Skelly will likely play beside Declan Rice and I think they'll need Lewis Skelly.

Obviously, Zubamendi provides more defensive cover, but what Arsenal probably really need more than that is somebody who's willing to take the ball under pressure and play out from the press because PSG's press is the best press in Europe.

So, while Zubamendi is the better defensive option and you're going ultra-defensive, I think Lewis Skelly is probably the more sensible option because they'll be under more pressure if they don't have an option to play the ball out to.

So, it really is going to be defined by...

the styles of play because PSG are not a defensive team they're really good defensively but they're not a defensive team Arsenal are really good defensively and not an offensive team so I'm not expecting anything electric in this final except for maybe a moment of magic from the PSG players to open Arsenal up yeah

Like I do think there's a tendency to say just because Arsenal are playing a defensive style that what they need is a Jacareza front as an out ball but as you said Eze, Saka, Havertz these are the players that they actually need players that are going to get in the gaps and into space and take the ball into feet and hold it and be able to

take it with their backs to goal or take it under pressure from Vitinha and Joao Neves and be able to go past them.
