    Match Reaction: Arsenal 0-0 Sporting Lisbon

    Not an important match in the scheme of well, anything, so it's probably useful to get such an ineffective performance out of the way at this stage.

    Mkhitaryan and Ramsey have most likely condemned themselves to the b-team after that.

    Sporting offered nothing and we we were completely in control for once, but Ramsey, Smith Rowe, Iwobi and Mkhitaryan just did almost everything wrong in the final third so as to completely nullify any threat.

    Annoying performance rather than an overly worrying one.

    Holding and Guendouzi probably the best two players on the night.

    Also, worst ref ever. Since Taylor, Dean and Atkinson last refereed a game, anyway.

    Oh, and get well soon Welbz.

    I don't really know why I stole myself away from drifting off to sleep.

    Utter pap.

    Had planned to get some last minute tickets for this but thankfully that fell through.

    The game sounded shite.

    Have we won the group yet?

    Didn’t think Guendouzi was especially good neither. Very frustrating night indeed..... and gutted to take an injury to Welbz. Unless he wants to include him Sunday.... no idea why AMN didn’t start.

    And Sporting fans virtually took over the stadium

    to be fair we generally defended well especially Sokratis.

    Auba had a nghtmare, although tbf if he hadn't been fouled towards the end he might well have scored

    but overall we weren't very incisive going forward without Torreira or, actually, Ozil playing
