    I don't think anyone expected that we will dominate this away game. Turkish teams are decent opposition in their own turf.

    Just noticed Ramsey has the captain's armband since Arteta came off.

    They're decent opposition to teams who are looking at 4th place finishes and a cup run or two...

    It's almost impossible to play our passing game on this pitch. It's a hoofball field.

    Keep in mind we barely had a pre-season so we WILL improve - let's just hope when we are up to speed that we are still in CL.

    That was ... spectacularly crap from Giroud. And I'm not someone who usually bashes the guy for every tiny thing, like some idiots do.

    Eh we got a Serbian ref against a Turkish side with a Croatian manager, i don't think that could have gone any more in our favor, lol.

    Sanchez has been probably been taken off early in light of our trip to Everton at the weekend. Don't need him getting injured here.

    You take Sanchez off now because Wilshere and Cazorla can be replaced with returning Germans at the weekend. Sanchez isn't so easily replaceable.

    Plus, on a proper pitch we'll smash these guys in the return game.
