It was a good result, not the best performance. What the hell was Arteta doing in the closing minutes anyway?
Like last year, the damage was done in the first leg, I don't get the mentality of teams and fans in this country at times. We love a gallant loser. Wenger needs to sort the Arsenal defence out because conceding three goals at home isn't good enough. If they'd have kept the damage down to 2-1 they'd have gone through, all ifs and buts of course but if I was an Arsenal fan I'd be annoyed, the result looks good on paper but going into the second leg two goals down, the pressure is completely off by then, nobody expected them to go through after that and they were only really in the tie for about 5 minutes toward the end of the 2nd leg, had Bayern not have won so comfortably at Arsenal's ground then they wouldn't have been so poor last night.
Scoring within 3 minutes then failing to score again until 5 minutes before the end isn't good enough.
