There were hardly any defensive errors and few shots outside of the goals actually scored. Was it really one of the greatest ever games and if so, why? Were Arsenal unlucky to leave Madrid with only a draw? Regardless of who wins the second leg how will they go about stopping PSG or Bayern. If you had a combined team from the four semi finalists, how many Arsenal players make it in? After the break is it time Michale Carrick was givne the Man Utd job and which midfielders will they be targeting in the summer? Last, a look ahead to the relegation battle and reaction to Scott Parker leaving Burnley. Tom Clarke is joined by Tony Cascarino, Gregor Robertson and Hamzah Khalique-Loonat Hosted on Acast.
