Arsenal vs Olympique Marseille: Match Thread.

Marseille nearly scored...

 

Szczesny

 

They've had 2 very good chances now.

 

2-1 in Dortmund. Fingers crossed.

 

Andy Townsend, not afraid to show his Arsenal bias.....

 

3-1.... looks like our destiny is in our own hands... and Napoli away is going to be our toughest game yet.

 

Looks like we need to win in Naples. 3:1 to Dortmund now.

 

Come on Basel

 

Game over. Good win.

 

Job done,the less said about the performance the better.

 

Nope. Not losing means we end top

 

Dull game, but job done. Shame about the result in the other game and now we need to play our first team in Naples.

 

How? We completely outplayed them and never needed to step out of second gear.

 

Also great that Wilshere got those goals, should do his confidence a world of good.

 

Good solid win, a clean sheet and 2 good goals from open play. We could have had more goals but it was a job well done. Even if we lose in Napoli as long as we don't get completely turned over we will qualify. A draw is enough to win the group. It's a strong position to be in and i'm confident we can win the group.

Special mention to Sczc and Monreal who i thought had really good games that may go under the radar.

 

Chensey has been brilliant this season. Even his most fierce critics have to give some credit. Cough 'gent' cough .

 

Ramsey, Wilshere, back 5 all played well, bit too casual from Ozil and Rosicky

 

It was too easy for us, and we were not ruthless enough, but it's another clean sheet and three points.

 

Too complacent,game should of been over at half time with a better attitude,they had a couple of good situations in the second half which could have required our guys to get out of second gear and as we all know that's easier said than done.

 

So the only way we'd not qualify is if Napoli win by a 4 goal lead?
