Episode 850 - The memes lied to us

In this episode I'm joined Phil Costa to talk about Arsenal's 4-0 win over Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday evening. We discuss the way the game was presented beforehand versus how it actually played out, what Diego Simeone's team selection said about how he viewed the Gunners' threat, and a couple of sliding doors moments before the goals arrived in the second half. We talk about set-piece prowess again, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Gabriel Martinelli's brilliant combination for the second goal, Viktor Gyokeres ending his dry spell in front of goal with two close range strikes, what this result and performance says about this Arsenal team, our incredible defensive record in the Champions League group stages over the last three seasons, and lots more.
