Arsenal kept doing something against Crystal Palace that will excite PSG ahead of UEFA Champions League semi-final
Arsenal will enter the UEFA Champions League semi-final against PSG off the back of an imperfect result.
Mikel Arteta watched his side throw away the lead twice on Wednesday night as Crystal Palace claimed a 2-2 draw at the Emirates Stadium, which leaves Liverpool just one point away from securing the Premier League title.

It was a sideshow regardless for Arsenal – with all eyes on PSG next week – although the Gunners kept doing something against Crystal Palace which could well see them falter against the Parisians.
David Raya must be sensible about coming off his line
Oliver Glasner revealed that his side targeted David Raya on Wednesday, having noticed the Spaniard likes to stray far away from his line.
After Jean-Philippe Mateta successfully lobbed the Spain international, the Austrian said: “It was the third time we had this (type of) opportunity. First half, Justin Devenny won the ball and Raya was high but he didn’t recognise it. We showed them when we prepared for Arsenal because this is how they play.”

With all due respect, if Crystal Palace can do it, a side as talented as PSG can.
Luis Enrique – who has already praised the Arsenal defence – has elite footballers such as Ousmane Dembele, Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in his squad, as well as Joao Neves and Vitinha, all of whom are more than capable of lofting the ball over Raya from long distance.
Arsenal need to find a balance
Of course, Arteta will want his No.22 to stay high more often than not, as it allows the Arsenal backline to start higher too and put pressure on PSG in their own half, although it is a tactic that must be used wisely.
For instance, while Raya, in fairness, was not expecting William Saliba to pass the ball to Mateta, he was still in an unnecessarily high position in the event of a potential turnover, and was promptly punished.
Knockout ties of any kind, let alone the last four of the UEFA Champions League, are often tight, tense affairs where one goal can decide the result, so the Arsenal glovesman needs to be sure of his positioning across both legs.
