“I didn’t experience it as a player… the second thing I can experience it as is a fan.” 🗣️ #UCLToday
CBS Sports Golazo
0:00 I woke up with a smile this morning.
0:01 I said it, you know,
0:02 20 years for us to go in a in in in our only second final and then
0:06 and then being in a situation to compete
0:10 for the league and it looks like we might.
0:12 Again, I'll stay in my lane, but you know,
0:15 it's 22 years in the league, 20 years to go back in the final.
0:18 I woke up with a smile.
0:20 I don't know I would like to think although we still didn't lose in in Europe.
0:24 We didn't concede a lot of goals.
0:27 That counts for something.
0:29 But Paris Saint-Germain will have the experience, obviously,
0:31 of knowing what it is to win it.
0:33 And when you cross that line, you know,
0:35 you don't have the fear of winning anymore.
0:36 Sometimes the fear of winning always says bigger than the fear of losing.
0:39 So, hopefully, we're going to go there, be brave,
0:41 but we have to but we have to beat
0:43 and battle against the champions and that won't be easy.
0:46 We know that.
0:46 Are you nervous?
0:48 Uh I usually I'm usually okay.
0:53 But I think I will be nervous in that final.
0:55 Yes, I will be because they're they're they're about to do
0:57 something that I couldn't do myself and because I'm an Arsenal fan,
1:01 that's that's all you want.
1:03 You want you want you want your team to win.
1:04 I want to experience it.
1:05 I didn't experience it as a player.
1:07 The second thing I can experience it as is a fan.
1:09 So, hopefully, it's going to it's going to happen,
1:11 but when you see the way Paris Saint-Germain played tonight,
1:16 they they they can kill you in both style.
1:18 They can kill you on the ball being scoring more goals than you and they
1:23 can also neutralize you and obviously it was a 1-1 because Harry Kane scored.
1:28 They can also beat you like that although they didn't win on the game,
1:30 but you understand what I'm saying.
1:32 So, they [snorts] have everything that they need to have,
1:35 but we've been pretty resilient, difficult to score against.
1:38 We don't over create, but when we do create,
1:40 we end up putting the ball in the back of the net.
1:42 So, different style, if you can say let's see who's going to win that one.
