These are heady times to be an Arsenal supporter. We beat Brighton this weekend to go top of the table, and remain there by virtue of Liverpool’s draw.
We don’t get much time to savor the moment, because of an impending quarter-final Champions League clash against Bayern Munich on Tuesday. The German side has knocked us out of this competition on four separate occasions in the past two decades.
This time feels different, and I’m liking our chances. Bayern are still a formidable side but there’s more steel to Arsenal and this knockout stage does not feel insurmountable.
We’ve been getting some good crowds at Maggie’s, even during the week. I’ll be there and hope you will too!
See you all at the pub!
Best,
Mark
