Both Arsenal and Chelsea still have tickets available because it's such a pain in the arse to get to.

Arsenal should refuse to play unless their fans/players can go. UEFA would soon sort the issue out then. Not sure if Chelsea would go along with them, but that would be nice too.

It’ll never happen because of the money they’d miss out on and the inevitable ban but both teams should boycott the final and have a one off “friendly” at wembley the same day

Apparently the reason why they got such a small allocation is because the Baku airport can’t handle enough people.

Arsenal would never give up the chance of Champions League football and a minimum £60m windfall from winning the Europa League.

Almost as if Azerbaijan is a dogshit country that shouldn’t even be part of European football competitions, let alone hosting the final.

I can’t remember their team winning a match.

Eh, it's pretty close since somewhere along the Caucuses is generally considered the border of Europe and Asia. Georgia is clearly in, Armenia and Azerbaijan are edge cases.

According to the supporters trust they only have money to buy players this year because of the Walcott and Oxcham sales, and they will have quite a large loss next year.

It seems like the club really wasn’t set up to run without CL revenue and Wengy went a bit nuts with wages and signings towards the end there in an attempt to cover up for the fact that his project had failed.

Not sure how much some of the final transfers were Wenger's to be honest, he didn't seem too enamoured with Aubameyang. Wenger's failing was more believing too much in players like Wilshere who when it came to the crunch, failed him.

The club is trying to live the dream Wenger had which is absolutely complying with FFP whilst being self sustainable which is why money is an issue, especially when they din't have United level revenue streams to offer high wages to everyone.

I'm not saying Wenger isn't culpable but clowns like Gazidis who publicly hankered for Wenger's departure only to flee immediately after are the real culprits. Also the architect of the Özil king's ransom.

Being self sustaining wouldn't be too much of an issue if we didn't have a billionaire owner seemingly siphoning profit out of the club to invest in his other franchises.

No, Wenger still lost the dressing room and failed to adapt to modern tactics after losing to Barcelona in the final. Yeah, that Mustafi/Gazidis poo poo is proof Wenger wasn't the be all end all he was made out to be, but he still deserves the bulk of the blame.

Mustafi is an above average defender in the league. I've watched every one of his games this season (even the garbage ones) and he's not that bad. He should still be replaced by somebody better but I think more blame gets attributed to him than is fair.

He completely shits his pants way too often to be an above average defender, which player are you watching
