Yes, until we get a 3rd it's a bit precarious. Kos off, let's hope it's just a precaution and nothing that'll keep him out. Hleb on. Good player he was. And Sokratis is back  3-0

My guess is there were somewhere between 40-45k in the ground. Lichtsteiner did quite well, including an important clearance off the line. Mustafi was impressive, and Özil was good enough to make me happy enough if he starts the next game. Started the game at a good tempo leading to an early lead. Without being the perfect performance, overall it was easily enough. |

Özil was a couple of heads and shoulders above anybody else on the pitch. The one source of creativity in an average game, but sadly few of our guys knew where to position themselves to receive his assists. Iwobi is at the impressively athletic stage of his career - hopefully a little polish will soon give him more glitter. |

Lichensteiner played well although he wasn't tested defensively. Still have major concerns at how easily even poor sides are able to get in behind our defence. They had that one kicked of the line and a couple of other very decent chances in the first half. As soon as we meet a good side we could well be in trouble. |

We definitely look better creating chances with Özil in the side and I’d play him v saints and Bournemouth as long as he is fit enough for the 90 mins. I’d like us to play Aubameyang/Lacazette/Özil/ramsey but I don’t think Emery will do it One thing we just cannot do is play 5 at the back or the 3 holding mids |

What are Wenger's 3 greatest victories? Hmm...tough one for all 3 but the top I'd have to say 1. Real Madrid, 1-0 away CL Can't see much competition. 2. I'm gonna shock some people and say Liverpool 4-2, 2004 at Highbury because we had literally been knocked out of the FA Cup and CL in the span of a few days and down 2-1 at Hightime, CL loss fresh and now Invincibles season in jeopardy. The whole season about to collapse in one week. Chelsea had played Villa I think and had they won, we'd be in deep doo doo and Henry saved our Invincible season. 3. People may disagree with this one as well, some will say the 1-0 win at Old Trafford in 2002, but I'm going to say the win at Old Trafford in 1998. We had a horrible record at Old Trafford for several years prior. 1991 season I think if memory serves me right (and it often fails me). Before that win, a draw was seen as a victory at OT. Even at home we only beat them once since 1991 I think. It changed the whole mentality that we were good enough. Honorable mention: 5-1 at Inter, 2002 win at OT to win the league. FA cup final in Vieira's last game. Win vs an excellent Barca side in the CL. |

This Sunday might prove something then. Southamptn rarly beat us at home iirc but their new manager got the better of us in the first game and could do the same this Sunday. Hopefully not, I'll be there and thankfully rarely see them lose when I'm there. |

We've drawn Rennes in the next round. Nice short travel distance which is always welcome, Rennes are 12th in the French league so we really should beat them comfortably. |

Chelsea have been handed a 2 window transfer ban for illegal signing of young players. Real Madrid, Barca and Athelico all received bans for the same thing recently I think. I'm sure Chelsea will appeal and either weasel their way out of it or have the ban delayed allowing them to stock up on players in the next window - just as Barca did |

Lacazette banned for a further 2 games in Europa League. That seems ridiculously harsh. I get the red card, he’s being continuously fouled and pushes a hand/arm out in to a guys face who is behind him. But he’s been given the same ban as if he’d deliberately 2 footed and broken the leg of an opponent |

For once I felt today's Sun's marks out of 10 to players was reasonably fair. The highest scores were the 8s received by all of Xhaka (who they made man of the match despite him getting the same points as two others), Lichtsteiner and Mustafi. Other scores I recall were the 7 for Guendouzi and Özil's 6. Accepting that getting the same points does not necessarily mean players were exactly at the same level, I reckon they got the order of those five right. Having said that, personalIy I'd have given Özil 7, not 6, even though I felt Guendouzi was a bit better. |

As I implied last night, I think Özil did enough to keep his place. I just thought OMOH's comment that he was a couple of heads and shoulders above any other Arsenal player on the pitch last night was way over the top. Moreover, grossly unfair because in my view he wasn't even our best player, let alone twice as good as everyone else. He played well though and I agree he improves our structure. We need creativity whether we're playing Man City or Huddersfield, and he provides exactly that. |

If anyone is bored, tune into the Proteas-Sri Lanka test. Sri Lanka need 120 more to win with 8 wicket in hand: a tough ask with swing on offer and Rabada bowling at 150 km/h, and Steyn and the giant Olivier just as ferocious. |
