Back in those days both Dundee clubs reached the European Cup semi finals

That should be Chelsea 2 a4e

Six English clubs have won the European Cup or Champions league; Liverpool 6, Man Utd 3, Chelsea 3, Forest 2, Mam City 1, Villa 1

Trigg - true, although in a way I’d rather see any English team win this than PSG, who appear to have arrogantly thought that they could just turn up and win (which of course may still happen…). Also, apologies for my two emojis on the previous post - I forgot myself there, too many zero percent beers in this heat…

Nearly all of France outside Paris wants Arsenal to win.

Arsenal wasting time already, typical. Come on PSG, the footballing world would like you to tear them a new one

Yeah but everyone wanted Wimbledon to win that cup so it made it an exciting game with the Iohn Barnes v Dave Beasant chance and the penalty/penalty save. This game has none of that so far and no one wants Arsenal to win.

His insurance premium now probably takes a week's wages LD ;)

[Link] Raheem Sterling had "an extremely tough couple of years". Must be tough to be on £300,000-per-week.

Sometimes a team needs to defend almost all game and win on the break - it reminds me of the 1988 FA Cup Final 👀😬

Can’t blame Arsenal but it’s a really dull game as a result. PSG are talked about being the best attacking team in Europe but for all their possession they’ve not created anything credible so far. When they get a corner you get no sense of danger.

It might end up being a case of be careful what you wish for next season for Liverpool…

Gooner in defensive mode really since minute 6, denying space to PSG

Well gosh darn it.

Yes, I think Slot has been somewhat harshly treated - won the league (albeit with Klopp’s squad, but a squad that Klopp had “failed” to win the title with…), and had a relatively poor “second album syndrome” season, plus had Salah whining and making things tricky for him - it would be very interesting to know what Liverpool fans think about it.

No, Liverpool were 3rd in 23/24, klopp's last season. They lost a couple of key games in April and fell away

Hold on I thought Klopp left having won the title and then Slot came in and won the title again with the same team. Have I just imagined that?

When had they just won the title? 2020 was the last time and since then they had had a complete midfield change and only Salah still there from the forwards. he inehrited a good squad and turned them into champions. The past season has been poor but way better than Arteta's first seasons at Arsenal.

Boring game ahead then

One nil to the Arsenal.

Lol & RK I did consider googling white wines whose name includes “Brown”. By the time he got fired the time was right for him to be fired. He knew it as well hence he applauded the fans after the loss to Torquay. A league too high for him maybe - again budgets all considered and JJ himself has commented that the club has changed a lot during his short reign so far in being able to cope at L2 level*. What was nice was that Brown got a fantastic reception away at Wycombe in the game following his departure. Not a slight at Jackson but I don’t think he’d get the same if he went in January. Not that he’d get abuse instead but a) I doubt he’d go to our next fixture and b) Brown had delivered history. JJ’s delivered a L2 promotion. Ardley did that.

He inherited a team that had just won the title. Changed nothing and won the title. Then made them worse.

Wasn't Slot in charge 24/25 when Liverpool won the Premier League by 10pts

He inherited a team that hadn't won the title for 4 years with a forward line led by Darwin Nunez. Hardly a title winning squad before he joined.

Did we ever get pics of Haydon's London marathon?
