So it's something in there that they've got to find again where that free-flowing football can come back because as well as they did tonight, you feel they've got to go another level for the final.
Matt, it's just worth pointing out to people exactly what's going on still inside this stadium, because while everybody is leaving and there aren't too many people left in it, the ones that are, and there are journalists here who've covered Arsenal for years and years internally, who've written stories, written books, made documentaries about the club, who are running across to find their fans, who are just clutching each other and grabbing hold of each other.
There's a sense of...
disbelief is probably too strong but real joy yeah there is because i think that you know there was obviously a feeling of that this couldn't go well and you know this walkway next to us is just funneling people up shouting at us you know the supporters are so so happy and and i can understand why it's been a long time coming in it's been it's been a relatively drawn out journey in terms of it's a long time nicole has been at the club took them over
And then it's been promising this kind of game, this kind of outcome, and the group's delivered.
And the club get a day out in the Champions League final.
You know, it's just fantastic.
Kelly, it's worth remembering.
It's been a while since they've been regulars in the Champions League.
They've done it for a few seasons now, but before that, it would have been years since they've been in the actual Champions League itself.
So, you know, this growth has been, as Matt's saying, it's been coming.
I think why you're seeing this, Kelly, is because of that period where we doubted them, didn't we?
And there was that feeling that it could all crumble.
The fact that it went so far this season, where they still had the possibility of doing the quadruple, and then we got to that spell at the end of March and into April, where they lost four out of six matches, and there was that feeling on the outside that it was all going wrong.
lost at Manchester City but after that defeat at Manchester City when actually they played well in that match they've been able to right the ship
There is a question around that Manchester City match, and despite the fact that they lost it, did that performance go some way to sparking the games that we've seen since, the performances that we've seen since, and most importantly, the result that we've seen tonight, Matt?
Yeah, I just think that it's the territory that you have to go to if you want to be a top team, and there's going to be disappointments, and there's going to be times when you're going to play well and get beat.
and you have to show character and you have to show some real grit and determination and i think they did that at manchester city and performed really well could have easily come away with a point and they weren't in the rhythm for that game they weren't in good form manchester city were in the ascendancy and were doing much better so to come away and play like that was was fantastic but i think
You've just got to have that in a belief, Kelly.
It doesn't matter what game you play, in what competition, who you're playing against, what the outcome of the game is.
