Reaction to Arsenal’s Champions League quarter-final draw with Bayern Munich

Arsenal have been drawn with Bayern Munich for the Champions League quarter-finals - an opponent fans know all too well.

It’s a huge tie, one that certainly comes with a bit of scar tissue for Arsenal, given what happened the last time the sides met in this competition. But it’s not a tie that Arsenal will approach with any fear. They will respect Bayern, but they will absolutely believe they can beat them. This is the sort of tie Arsenal have been longing for over the past seven years while they have been trying to establish themselves back amongst Europe’s elite.
