Match Day Thread FC Basel vs. Arsenal (UCL Group A) 2016/17 Official Match Thread

The only negative was Iwobi. Even though he scored (through a great team effort), the amount of times he gave the ball away was shocking.

I'm not sure what's happened to him as he started the season brightly but he needs to buck his ideas up or Oxo will go back to being first choice on the wing.

 

Get out on the beer.

 

hahah, in Switzerland everything is closed! I had beers at home though

 

I've seen loads of photos of lads from my supporters club out on the piss before and after the game.

 

Personally thought Iwobi looked better last night. He'll find his form again soon, hopefully the goal he scored will help.

I would like to see more of this front four this Season.

---Iwobi--------Sanchez----------Perez---
---------------------Ozil-------------------------

What I like about it is that we still have pace upfront but all three front players can interchange (as Perez and Sanchez did last night).
There's pace there but also sound technical ability.

When we play Oxo/Theo sometimes their lack of composure on the ball costs us. Both these guys do well running on to things but are not the best against a deep counter attacking side.

 

Bet Arsene is fooking relieved he put out a strong side and smashed Basel considering the PSG result. Imagine the scenes if we went with an under strength squad and ballsed up!

 

Twitter would be in total meltdown today
