In today’s video I provide an early tactical breakdown/analysis of Arsenal’s tie against Thomas Tuchel’s Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarter-finals.

The draw took place last friday, with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City drawing Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid in what looks like a staggering right-hand side to the draw. On the left, Xavi’s Barcelona take on Sergio Enrique’s PSG and Borussia Dortmund are poised against Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid.

In the video I cover:

– F.C. Bayern Munchen’s vulnerabilities in the build-up phase with the likes of Leon Goretzka, defending transitions with a midfield of Pavlovic and Joshua Kimmich, and how Arsenal’s physicality and duel winners such as Declan Rice, Kai Havertz, and Thomas Partey will be invaluable in the tie.

– Arsenal’s and Mikel Arteta’s ambitions to control the Germans, utilizing their ever growing fluid positional build-up with Martin Odegaard, Ben White, Jurrien Timber, Jorginho, William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Jakub Kiwior, Takehiro Tomiyasu and more to take control of the tie in the first leg at the Emirates Stadium. They will be combating against a Bayern press which can often be too passive.

– Bayern Munich’s own threats, in particular in transition with Mathys Tel and Harry Kane replicating the Heung-Min Son and Harry Kane dynamics at Tottenham Hotspur. This is the main way for Bayern to hurt Arsenal, who are one of the best defensive teams in the world, both in their man-to-man press and zonal block.

– Alphonso Davies and Sacha Boey could have a big part to play up against Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli, in a matchup that has key battles all over the pitch! Jamal Musiala is another world-class player to look out for, among a pitch that will be littered by them.

This channel covers the entire Premier League and Champions League, including Ten Hag and Manchester United, Ange Postecoglou and Spurs, Aston Villa and Unai Emery, Chelsea and Mauricio Pochettino, Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp and much more!

Mikel Arteta and Arsenal progressed after beating Porto on penalties in the round of 16, with thanks to David Raya and his penalty saving heroics. Bayern overcame Lazio 3-0 after both sides found themselves 1-0 down after the first away legs.
