    Piece of piss. Now for a couple of juicy Dortmund ties.

    Perfect for the week-end. We sat back conserved some energy and told Napoli to break us down if they can. Job was done in the first 15 minutes. A bit like the good old days, when we would come out all guns blazing and finish the game as early as possible.

    I'd like to have seen us score more, but I tend to agree with this. If we'd have gone full tilt in the second half and conceded one through over committing then people would be slating the team for being over confident.

    Overall it was a very solid performance and we got the job done in the first half, the second half was about consolidating our position.

    A thoroughly professional performance tonight

    If we can beat Dortmund in our next game in the CL we will be in a fantastic position to top the group and qualify early.

    Thought Giroud put in a very decent shift..... good to see the terrier Rosicky back, although a few misplaced passes. Good all round team performance!

    Also loved the Flamini-Arteta axis. Maybe an option for the bigger games.
