Such a big win in the scheme of things. Given the injuries, the loss against Sheffield Wednesday and the games coming up, to have as poor a first half as we did and to come back and win 3-0 is massive. Especially considering it's a ground and team we have always seemed to struggle against, and a game like this in years previous we'd have continued to have a poor 2nd half. It's game like this that make you think, maybe just maybe we can do something.

Also if there is anyone who still doubts how important Ozil is to this side or how good he is, they are well and truly a lost hope. I don't know if he'll be credited with 3 assists, but he fucking should be.

Still likely in our own hands, if you make the natural assumption that Bayern beat Olympiacos.

I know Olympiacos have a ridiculous home record in the past couple of seasons, bit if we can't beat them by 2 goals we don't deserve to go through.

Still think we'll do it.

Losing Konsciely (spelling?) is rough. I think we've shown what a solid CB pairing can do.

Will he miss the NLD?

Bellerin is confirmed out.

Debuchy was so much better this morning today than he has been in most if not all of his recent appearances. Incredible challenge on Robben that Bellerin would be proud of. Biggest thing is he gets another 90 mins in his legs.

Joel Campbell proved he's not up to it at this level, we should have played Gibbs from the start tbh.

Yeah I'd say Koscielny will make the derby. If we had lost against Bayern at home I'd say Koscielny would have 100% played today. Him not playing today was more to do with not risking him for the derby I think.

Pretty simple equation now for us now if we want to make it out of the group. Beat Dinamo, hope Bayern beat Olympiacos and we then have to beat Olympiacos by 2 and we go through.

Failing that I hope we finish bottom of the group, but think we'll finish 3rd.

Deserved nothing, but one positive is Cazorla was hooked at half time.

Why the fuck is he in the team if Ozil has to drop between the CB's to touch the ball.

Fucking hell.

Your lack of attacking options off the bench seems like a concern. A draw was probably a fair result, you deserved to score at least one of Giroud's headers. The fact that a left wing back playing left winger scored a goal must worry you. Your depth is being tested and that Campbell bloke is not up to scratch. Walker got caught under the ball and Lloris should have done better as Gibbs hit it straight at him. You also have Cech to thank for some fantastic saves.

If you're 1-0 down away from home, you don't want to be relying on your 2nd choice to snatch a point. How long are Wallnut, Ox, Wilshit and Welbeck out for? Will stingy Arsene buy an attacking player in January?

Once Sp*rs went up 1-0 that game was only ever finishing 1-1 because of us being so light in options and Sp*rs complete inability to hold a lead in a derby.

Seeing photos of our idiot fans smashing a couple of sinks in the toilets. For all the shit our media gave ArseAnal for their fans pulling our signs down, we've just gone and sunk to that level ...... Some people never learn.

Also, how quiet was the Emirates for 75minutes!!

International break comes at the perfect time for us. Bellerin gets a chance now to have a nice break and hopefully Theo and Ox will be back after the break. Massive run of winnable games before we play City.

Honestly would not mind seeing Gibbs start ahead of Campbell.

I don't know why, but for some reason it hit me last night for the first time that we actually have Petr fuckin Cech and it's not some temporary thing.

One of the best GK's in the world, and he's ours.
