Twas a good game. Arsenal have come on a long way in fairness to them.

Teams have to play full whack for 95 minutes to get a result against Liverpool. That beats most of them before they even set foot on the pitch.

Liverpool fully deserved it alright, could have been a different game if Lacazette finished off his one on one with the keeper though. Still, the aim is top 4 this season and that's not going to be decided with games against Liverpool away, I was happy just to have it knocked off the fixture list so early

Pep splashing the cash on his defence against. An embarrassing amount of money spent so far.

Wonder how important Arteta was to the coaching set up at City. He was managing to make Mustafi look like a proper defender at Arsenal, while Pep is back to throwing millions around to try and fix his problems

Good point. Arteta is making Arsenal look a lot stronger as well, but can he succeed where no one else has and make a defender out of David Luiz?

[Emphyrio]

In short, no.

Wow are they dragging the arse out of the CL draw. Is it always this bad?

[Emphyrio]

I'll listen to the news at 6 and get it. Couldn't be dealing with the pointless ceremony of it all.

[astfgyl]

I should have done the same. Really painful stuff

I've a bad feeling for Celtic this evening over in Bosnia this evening. Failure to qualify for the group stages would be a disaster. Dundalk have a great shout, playing a Faroese outfit.

[Thorn]

 I gave up and turned it off after half an hour of utter pointlessness. Rather read the  Coronavirus thread from top to bottom than watch any more of those odious presenters.

[Paul keohane]

Dundalk got the handiest route to the group stages ever for an Irish side,they havent been great this sesson but should have enough to win tonight.

[Emphyrio]

Great result for Dundalk.

Might not be the best goal scored tonight, but it's gotta be the funniest. (Unless you're a Copenhagen fan)
