Am told Emily Fox wasn’t a concussion sub, just a normal substitution.

I haven’t listened to this band for a while. Thanks for the reminder.

Ugh, check out these stats

I could only listen to this and haven’t had to to do a watch of it

Oh, that was a frustrating watch …but extending our lead is good. 👍

I listened to the audio. It sounded like an exciting match, although I agree that letting in those goals isn’t ideal. Wasn’t the first leg at Stamford Bridge?

Thanks!

I wasn’t able to watch it

That must have been some half time team talk!!! Mediocre 1st, brilliant 2nd. COYG!

Yeessssss!!!

Rice’s absence already being felt :(

Argh. We are cursed.

Via James Benge:

There is also understood to be optimism over the extent of Timber’s injury while Calafiori’s was known about prior to Saturday’s game. Arsenal had planned for the eventuality that the Italian would not be able to start, Arteta confirming that he had told Declan Rice that he might need to fill in at right back…

Just my laziness. I don’t feel like the eating experience is diminished, though.

To a mostly Australian audience , clarification is not really needed, and certainly not for anyone British. I was trying to be mindful of a wider audience.

Assembled some mince pies.

LOL. I don’t feel like I’m one of those people finding fault in everything usually! Today, I decided to turn off the commentary for most of the second half and did some Duolingo lessons at the same time. This may have led me to fret less about defending the lead.

Holding a 1 goal lead for so long is not ideal, but I think we did well. I felt that there were only a few nervous moments, plus we really could have scored a couple more.
