The Better Team Won !!!!!

By Adedayo Ayodele

Quite sure many Arsenal fans won't read this post because of the title lol but you know, a brother gotta tell it as it is....

Wenger may blame the referee all he wants, but he got the decision spot on. I don't believe Robben dived as he had only one intention and that was to kick the ball past Szczesny to score. Arsenal missed a hat full of chances in the first 30 mins and after the penalty miss, their heads dropped which is understandable. You don't miss a penalty against a top side like that and not feel weak. 

Wilshere's body reaction could tell you that. Then came the defining moments of the game when Gibbs got injured and was replaced by Monreal, who lost track of Robben which led to the red card and a sending off for Szczesny. The game was being played at a frantic pace and there was absolutely no help from Ozil, so can't really blame Monreal completely for the issue. After the sending off, Arsenal were there for taking and Pep Guardiola sensed that, so they went for the Jugular. 

11 vs 11 they could have maybe nicked the game or at least draw as Bayern's defence couldn't keep up at one stage. But they stretched Arsenal for the best part of an hour, with their wingers and full backs tormenting them all game.

I along with a lot of y'all have been ranting about Ozil all season, saying they didn't need him in the summer and I still stand by that. Yes he's a fantastic player with great technique, but I personally prefer Cazorla to him to play behind the role as he suits Arsenal's game-play better. 

The £42m would have been better spent on getting Higuain for £35m which Real wanted + another CB for backup or even cough up the £50m for Suarez which Liverpool demanded! All I know is Ozil has a lot to prove to live up to his price, I hope he proves us wrong else he'll turn out the same as Berbatov - great talent, but remembered for being too lazy.
