    A lot of Celtic fans pointing out the right wing elements of the Legia supporters.

    Interesting argument from Legia, but it's professional sport and sadly attitudes have changed. We saw the arguments in cricket when players refuse to walk and I saw a few incidents at the Commonwealth games where athletes were happy to accept the officials call even if they knew they were in the wrong

    Sky commentator did that annoying mistake of using illegible when they mean ineligible. The player is not illegible...we could all make him out:mad:

    Neil Lennon made the same mistake earlier today. It's a trend. Put footballers and ex-footballers on the telly and the standard of English drops. I can't count how many times I've heard say them instead of those, in context. The only ex-player, I know, who uses it correctly is Lineker. Listen out for them, instead of the correct those, in the coming season. MOTD is awash with it. You'll be climbing the walls before the season finishes. :)

    But presumably the Sky commentator was reading an autocue...no excuse.

    Artur has just retweeted Legia and then tweeted the following in Polish:

    "Football these days is rotten to the core ... I'm glad I'm one of the few who look in the mirror without disgust ..."

    He's posting on Twitter and Instagram pictures of "6-1 - #LetFootballWin". Lots and lots and lots of angry Celtic fans in the comments.

    Wow, that was almost quite a start by Besiktas against Arsenal: Ba hit the bar from kick-off.

    Chambers looks annoyingly comfortable as a centre back...

    He's having a great game so far.

    Genuinely gutted he left us so soon.

    Question is why didn't Pochettino see him as a centre back?

    Maybe because we had two decent CBs at the time and it would be a risk. Have to praise Wenger for giving the lad a chance (though he has also said that he sees Chambers as a midfielder).
