Laugh all you want lads. Europa League is where it's at. No-one cares about playing Barcelona, Dortmund or Inter Milan. It's all about Qarabag, Bate, Vorskla and many more amazing teams from unknown countries. Arsenal are not afraid to venture into the unknown
if you want to build up those air miles totals. "No-one cares about playing Barcelona, Dortmund or Inter Milan." Inter are in the Emmerdale League now. Perhaps you will get to play them.
Maybe we will in the latter stages. But I'd like to think we are capable of beating them home and away. Unlike a certain other team
Erm... Sorry to ruin your hipster tournament, but we dispatched Inter into that particular pit of hell, I'm afraid.
No worries. As mentioned above, should we face them, we'll do what you couldn't do and beat them home and away
Of course you will. Right after you beat... whoever it is you're playing in whatever country they're from.
Interesting to hear the reporting of the CL draw. Rightly saying that Citeh will be the most pleased of the English clubs but mainly talking about how Liverpool are playing the three times winners blah blah blah. Then a bit more on Liverpool. Then, oh, and Spurs are playing Dortmund. I don't think I heard anyone mention that Dortmund are 9 points ahead of Bayern at the top of their league.
Or, you know, how Dortmund have done something The Sheikh Mansour Team haven't in spite of the billions they're thrown at the team in the last ten years - win the Champions League
He didn't say that they had, just that City's owners had thrown lots of money at them in the last ten years.
Dortmund face Monchengladbach on Friday night in the Battle of the Borussias. It's on BT Sport 2, if anyone fancies scouting our Champions League opposition.
The Bundesliga team for the first half of the season's in and...uh oh... please log in to view this image
