🚨| Jamie Carragher on Arsenal vs Slavia Prague game tonight 🗣️“I’m not entirely convinced by Arsenal’s performances, and I think people are getting carried away with their expectations in the Champions League. You cannot approach European football thinking that because you’re Arsenal and your opponent is Slavia Prague, the game is already won. That’s a dangerous mentality. I’ve watched enough football to know that teams like Slavia Prague can make life extremely uncomfortable for supposedly bigger clubs. They play with intensity, they move the ball well, they press aggressively and they aren’t afraid to take the game to their opponents. Arsenal might have better individual players on paper, but football isn’t played on paper. If Slavia Prague can dictate the tempo, put Arsenal under pressure and exploit their weaknesses, this could become a very uncomfortable evening for Mikel Arteta. And when you look at teams like PSG and Barcelona in the Champions League, you see sides that play with real conviction. You see attacking football, confidence, intensity and a clear understanding of how to dominate opponents. Those are teams that look serious about winning this competition. With Arsenal, I still have questions. They seem to expect teams to respect them because of their name and reputation. But this is the Champions League. Nobody is going to hand you three points because you’re Arsenal. If they underestimate Slavia Prague, they could discover that winning in Europe is much harder than they think. And if they struggle against teams like this, how can anyone confidently put them in the same conversation as PSG and Barcelona?”
