Really enjoyed the game last night.

It's weird because I kind of like suddenly started hearing the feedback in terms of how everyone perceived the game going, many opinions about how Arsenal set up and, you know, that kind of stuff will come creeping out more over the next couple of days.

But we look forward to actually watch back the game just to really get an assessment in terms of just how it played out.

Because when you're doing a commentary, and I said to you guys before, and to Joe, that you're so entwined in what's happening.

You're so light.

And it felt tense.

I know it wasn't a classic for the purists, but it did really feel like it was like so kind of,

waiting one pivotal moment.

And when Arsenal got the opening goal, it plays straight into their hands of being able to put up that defensive structure and literally say to the best attacking team in Europe, okay, can you break us down?

Because this is what people don't really give Arsenal enough credit for, just how good they are at managing in-game difficult situations.

And up to that point in terms of the goal, um,

PSG forcing the penalty.

Although the stats were, on the possession stats, were showing 75% for PSG, it felt to me that Arsenal were actually in control of the game, the way it was playing out.

Obviously then,

When Arsenal then do concede that goal to make it 1-1, then the emphasis swings back onto Arsenal and say, okay, what have you got other than that defensive structure?

And the sad reality was very little, very little in terms of going forward.

It felt that Havertz was on with Jokeresh up front and Arsenal's only real threat going forward were long balls up to those two to back into the centre-backs and hopefully pick up a second ball.

And when you're talking about Europe's elite level competition,

Your front line has to be better than that.

It has to be better than what Arsenal had last night.
