At one nil every time they cross the half way line I'm nervous. |

Yeah. The performance has dropped off quite a bit. We needed to get that second goal when we were dominant. |

At this stage I”m counting it down in 3 minute segments. Each segment that passes is a relief. Hanging on against Zurich wasn’t how I expected things to be. We have lost the momentum. |

Job just about done. Top the group, avoid a tough 2 leg play off against a CL team. Those midweeks might be used to re-arrange the Everton or City games(?). Goodbye to the annoying group stage of the Europa League. 3 more games to get through before the World Cup break. |

That was bloody torture. Horrible and nervy. Really feared a sting in the tail and we would end up 2nd. We were poor but job done |

Relieved but disappointed with the way we allowed them to dominate the latter part of the game. |

Just seen Group F. Quite remarkable. Each side has a record of W2 D2 L2. All dead level other than goal difference. I’ve never seen that before. |

Same problem. The back up in midfield and attack is lacking and add little value. The first teamers are the ones who are winning the 2nd tier games like this |

The road to the final will undoubtedly be tough. Too many good teams in the competition. However, with the start we've had to the season thus far, I couldn't fault any Gooner to think semis or finals...or even a possible win. I saw an interview where they were asking Jesus about his not scoring and he said the right things but he's gotta be thinking "Am I cursed?" |

Vieira is one I can't quite make out. |

It’s not all on him but I did have such high expectations. I think he’s useful but lightweight but the type of player who might come good in the 2nd season. We seem to have players who are not determined enough in possession. Some of Kieran’s Tierneys bloody mindedness is needed elsewhere. Lokonga is too passive and I’m becoming boring but Nketiah offers nothing. We definitely need a signing in the final 3 |

Despite the sheer grind of tonight it is worth reflecting on just what a run this squad have put together so far this season with games coming so often. A heck of an effort. And it is great to see that Man U will have an extra couple of games to fit in against a Champions League outcast. |

So true. Everyone else has dropped more points and put in their share of unconvincing performances too. The schedule has been ridiculous and our players have worked harder than anyone, hence their position at the top of every bloody league they're competing in. The second string may not be so convincing lately but a little harsh to single them out as individuals on days and nights when the first teamers haven't shone either. We win as a team, we lose as a team. Mostly the former. |

I generally agree with the sentiment I guess the fear is I see an ending similar to last year where a burn out occurs and the 2nd lot come in and fall short. Im generally proud of this side the best we’ve seen since we left Highbury but I have a nagging feeling you will see an ending like last year |

TOP GUN wrote: I guess the fear is I see an ending similar to last year Yeah, I imagine most of us were pretty badly scarred by that and have the same fear of it happening again, especially with Spurs lingering like a bad smell. But we are a noticeably better side than last year, hopefully that will count for something when it matters. Wouldn't say no to a quality signing in January either. |

Like everyone else I was shocked and saddened to hear of the passing of Bernard the forum legend and friend to many. Being relatively young, compared to me at least, his passing comes as a shock even though we had never met. It seems like he was posting on here just a few days ago... Good to see so many old, or at least former posters logging in to pay their respects. RIP Bernard. |

Hi everyone, I haven’t posted on here for years now (I can’t even remember the username I was using then). But I have been lurking around on a regular basis to keep my fingers on the pulse of the Arsenal community, particularly during the transfer windows and during or after games. But having just read the horrible news about Bernard I feel like I need to come back and join my tribute. I met him a few times at the Emirates when I was still living in London and going to the games, we never struck long, deep or even meaningful conversations, but we seemed always pleased to meet each other and exchange greetings. I haven’t been able to stop crying since I have learned the news, a couple of hours ago… He was such a figure on this website and even if I stopped contributing myself I always enjoyed reading his prose (even if not always agreeing with him). RIP Bernard I miss you already… |

And it is great to see that Man U will have an extra couple of games to fit in against a Champions League outcast. Man U now have a problem to arrange their prem fixtures that were postponed. There is no spare midweek at all. The only way Man U can fit those games in is by themselves and their prem opponents getting knocked out of the domestic cups early as there are midweeks assigned for later rounds |

I think the trouble with the second string is they don’t look good enough in these games but I think with a lot of them if you put them with 10 first 11 players they look a lot better. It seems that the best quality of depth we have is in defence. I actually think Elneny is someone who won’t ever drop a stinker of a performance in the first 11. Clearly the attack needs some reinforcements |
