That's not the point. We need to win the group. REMEMBER LAST YEAR!

2nd that. I remember the eastmond experiment going horribly wrong last year, when we were 1 win from topping the group. We need to win the group. Ok were not gonna win the competition hardly, but still dosent mean we want to face Barca in the first knockout round again though.

Kill it off tonight Wenger, and heres hoping for a Olympiakos v dortmund draw. That should do the trick nicely.

If wenger puts out a strong side and learns from the mistakes of last years debacle at braga and shakhtar, after a massive win at the weekend I think we'll push on and win this comfortably 2 or 3-0.

Barca Or Milan Yes.

Madrid no chance they are miles ahead in their group & I think Munich will win their group too.

Wins build confidence. We have to carry on this momentum. Another win tonight and the team will be buzzing about.

Nothing that goes on in Wenger's head surprises me anymore. I hope he takes this one seriously and tries to win the group so we don't have to suffer the same shite as last year but you just never know with Lord Vader... :?

Also, as stated, wins build confidence. 8)

Of course the back end of that is if we do well between now and Christmas then Lord Vader will arrogantly announce we are the finished product, not sign anyone in January, and we will have to watch the inevitable collapse on all 4 fronts next Feb/Mar as late season injuries, fatigue and loss of form kick in.

Again.

Did Europe recently hit daylight savings time?

What happened to my usual 12:45pm kick off? It's now for 1:45.

I'm guessing that's what happened as ours doesn't kick in til a week or two from now.

Apart from RVP prob our strongest available. but that's a massive "apart". Not worth the gamble IMO.
