    That was rather fun. WD Alex Iwobi and co

    Oh, Cahill and Luiz?

    Iwobi could become a monster.

    Indeed. Let's hope he keeps a level head and doesn't get distracted by the inevitable media hype.
    I can't stop laughing at Chelsea though. All that money, and they've still ended up with Cahill and Luis at the back again. It was **** the first time they tried it. Anymore of this and Conte's hair will be falling out, again.

    ****ing loved it; if only we could have really put them to the sword in the second half . . .

    Senderos and Djourou cost peanuts. This pair cost £65 million quid.

    I wrongly thought Djourou was gonna be a top CH. Whatever happened to him?

    Last seen at Hamburg, he's captain there. No aggression.

    rapid improvement from the lad...now that we're sorted defensively (back 4 and defensive midfield) it gives players like him the opportunity to shine.

    Even Gibbs was taking the pss with them when he came on.

    My feeling with Iwobi is that we haven't even seen what he's properly capable of....quite excited.

    Hopefully over time Arsene wil, stop wasting his time with Giroud and bring on Lucas instead....I want to see more of him. Giroud is so fkin boring it's unreal. The guy served a purpose when he signed him because we had useless defence and a bunch of slow midgets midfielder who had absolutely no fight about them so needed a big man up front to lump the ball too...That time is gone now...time for the classier players return.

    Just one thing....that third goal...happy to be wrong but I think Ozil totally meant to hit the ball into the ground. Had all the time in the world to pick his shot and picked the right one to beat that failed basketball player.

    Just my opinion but I think he went for that ground shot.

    Mustafi was magnificent

    What a signing from Arsene!! Could be as important as when he signed Sol on a free.

    Santi too...I suspect that injury last season has done him the world of good....gave him time to have a nice break and freshen himself up for this season.

    He's been awesome in finding that crucial balance in front of the back 4.

    Awesome win....roll on the next one....got to keep the momentum going now.

    Always felt Djourou would be better in defensive midfield like when we played Grimster them.

    Never really rated him but liked him because you could see he was trying his hardest and never gave up.

    Senderos on the other hand....for fox sake. Where do you even start with him.....I suppose his home champions league debut.

    We had been beaten 2nil over in Munich and the 2nd leg was at Highbury....injuries meant he would start.

    Tony Adam was amazing that might....always talking and coaching Senderos all through the game...it was tricky one....he didn't have much to do but as the game wore on and we pressed higher up the pitch he had to be on guard for any quick counters...I think he had one to deal with but had read the situation very well and got a head start on the striker in a foot race.

    Finished nil nil and I remember thinking....wow...that was top notch...he could be the next Tony Adams.

    Nope...what a utter goofball.

    Think he suffered the Richard Wright syndrome...made a few mistakes, confidence went and just a total liability capable of anything....**** me if this was the sixties he'd probably be wanted for the jfk assassination such was his utter f u c k e r y.

    Funny thing is....I don't think he ever meant it...just pure bad luck and total lack of confidence.

    Confidence is a big thing in football...Iwobi has it now....and long may it continue...Bellerin has it in spades...fancy calling out
    Usain Bolt again....but Senderos and Wright just couldn't handle it.

    Djourou could....he could take the bad beats and mistakes and still come back for more...just a shame he wasn't all that good.
