    Özil showed some of the qualities/touches that were his trademark at RM, interesting to see commentators didn't comment on several occasions when he played a good pass etc. Still, he improved on last game, and that's 2 assists for him already, despite playing '****'
    Wilshere was very good, actually seemed to stay on his feet rather than going to the ground at every opportunity, used his upper body strength like he did when he burst onto the scene a few years back.
    Oxo/Debuchy linked well, can't wait until he (chamberlain) gets fully match fit, forgot how quick he is (although the beskitas defence weren't the fastest bunch)
    Main criticism I have is that Flamini is simply mediocre. Works hard, but really is a club footed donkey at times. Good squad player but shouldn't be anywhere near our starting 11, shows how much we need a dm when he and arteta are our only viable options

    Sanchez was brilliant tonight. It wasn't pretty but it was effective. Our work rate was outstanding and that counts for a lot.

    I give Flamini credit for not getting a card in a double digit yellow day, at least.

    You really should be thankful to the ref, another ref might have awarded Besiktas 2 penalty's

    Whatever, we're through, and all that matters now is the big draw tomorrow.

    You excited for tomorrow's draw? Who you hoping to get in the group stages?

    Time / the universe doesn't work like that. If a penalty was given everything that followed would have been different.

    For all you know if a penalty was given that early the game could have gone completely differently and we'd win comfortably.

    Oh, and on another slightly negative note, WTF was Debuchy thinking going back on the pitch to have a go at the Referee?
    Thank **** Flamini ushered him off (of all people), otherwise he could have been looking at a suspension

    He tried it, there were a few of his trademark lunges in the second half

    You shouldn't we worried about United, worry about the fact you were gifted a place in the group stages by the ref after struggling against Besiktas. You be lucky to drop out into the Europa

    Another ref might not have fallen for all Assley Youngs dives .

    You might not have won that last PL title.

    Funny old world aint it.

    We're not worried about Utd and you should no longer worry about MK Dons, you won't have to play them again this season.

    Bet you are a lonely 27yo with no friends with your level of immaturity. Can't you think of something a bit more witty to reply then trying to avoid the fact you were very very lucky with decisions by trying to divert the attention onto Man United........ Not long till Arsene retires tick tock
