I am referring to a phase of the match against a Bayern side who were clearly determined to try and score ten goals against us, and who started the game in the same way as the previous leg - by not letting us have a touch of the ball for ten minutes. During that phase we wrested control of the game, scored a triffic goal, had a decent pelanty shout, and should have scored again but for the clumsy, mirror-gazing bearded lummox up top. Of course the game changed when an offside player dived in the box for which our captain was sent off.
And yes, I am specifically referring to Alex "Chambo" Oxlade-Chambolain, whose recent performances in the centre of the park suggests that he is good enough to play there. Sadly, it will be for another club.
