🚨📰 Toni Kroos shares his honest verdict on Arsenal’s style of play after watching them take on PSG.
Speaking to Luppen TV, Kroos said:
🗣️🎙️“You can also debate Arsenal’s style of play, because I think they have the players to play differently, too.
“Maybe not in the final against Paris, who are even better technically, but in general, I would have liked Arsenal at times to play a bit differently without leaving themselves exposed or taking too many risks.
“I understand the approach, but I do think they have the footballing quality to be a bit more offensive or vary their style, especially with players like Rice, Odegaard, Saka, Eze and Madueke. I think they do have the technical quality for that, particularly going forward.”
Questions have been raised over whether Arsenal’s struggles to retain possession were down to a lack of individual quality in attack or the result of Arteta’s tactical instructions. [afcnewsroom]
I am short of words to adequately express how deeply grateful I am for the overwhelming show of support I received over the weekend in Gembu, Taraba State, at my turbanning ceremony as Madakin Mambilla. To be so honoured by the Mambilla Emirate Council and His Royal Majesty, Dr. Shehu Audu Baju II, Ta Mboon Mambilla, and President of the Sardauna Traditional Council, is a privilege I will carry with humility for the rest of my life.
This, as I have said elsewhere, is the highest of all the honours I have received, for it places upon me the ambassadorial responsibility of a community I have so passionately championed, respected, and loved.
The turnout of friends, colleagues, and distinguished principals from across the nation, who defied the distance and braved the roads to stand with me, represents a debt I cannot afford to repay, except through this sincere expression of my eternal gratitude for such extraordinary support and solidarity.
That solidarity, in truth, belongs not to me alone, but equally to the Mambilla Emirate, which remains deeply grateful to have received such distinguished guests who came not only to honour me, but also to witness its vast natural wonders, rich heritage, and breathtaking landscapes, comparable to the finest nature-based destinations anywhere in the world.
On behalf of my family and the emirate, let it be known that none of this is taken for granted. We are who we are because of the people around us, those who stand with us in the rain and in the sun. You have done so with confidence and love, and you have left us speechless.
So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Chelsea lost their first UCL final in 2008 on pens.
Man City lost their first UCL final.
United lost their last 2 UCL finals in 2009 and 2011.
Liverpool lost 2 UCL finals in 2018 and 2022.
It's normal. All we need to do is keep arriving here. And we WILL get over the line.
I'm heartbroken for Arsenal.
The worst kind of painful defeat. In a final. Of a competition they have NEVER won. Horrible, horrible pain. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
Arsenal fans, I feel your pain. I won't be able to sleep tonight.
Teams almost always lose a CL final before they end up winning it. It’s just about being in the deep stages consistently year after year, eventually it’ll happen
