    Match Reaction v Valencia (home).

    Scratchy but satisfying in the end.

    We're more capable of losing 2-0 away though. so still a bit eek but a lot happier with that then 10 minutes ago.

    On a more positive note:

    We're the only Premier League club to win midweek.

    Pride of Europe.

    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    Ok!
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    Still a worry for the second leg but I think this is a big win for the run in.

    At the start we looked like a team that had lost 4 of the last 5.

    Great comeback and a win over Brighton would hopefully get us back on song to do the job next week (would happily take a draw) and maybe () win away to Burnley with an outside chance of top 4.

    Feeling much better now we got the third.

    It's still going to very difficult next week but hopefully we deal with the pressure as well as we did at Napoli.

    Come on you Gunners! We're the famous Arsenal and we're going to...Baku.

    Auba and Laca were both superb today.

    Shame Laca fluffed those chances though.

    Ancient men Koscielny and Cech saved us a few times.

    It was a dreadful start but as soon as we equalised, everything turned. Valencia only had one good chance after that and it was the inability to put our chances away that was more worrying than the opposition.

    Even the ref was fine today.

    Great result due to the one thing Emery has gotten right so far, the front 2 together.

    BTW when last did we have a front 2 as dangerous as these guys with this kind of understanding and injury history? I mean RVP was never that great with Henry, him and Adethewhore almost killed themselves and Eduardo was so unlucky with injuries.

    It's probably going be a pairing that involves Bergkamp but DB was never that lethal or forceful and always made players he played with look better and take the shine. Maybe if Anelka had played with Henry?

    Anyway, I wish we could spend all our effort, time and more importantly money on sorting out our defence and getting that midfield balance right again.

    I think we've got the dream strikeforce we've been yearning for, finally, its just everything else has fallen apart. Thanks AW, for the strikers and the problems.

    Thoughts we responded really well after their early goal.
    Second half was a bit of a nothing performance (my stream was pretty dodgy in the second half) and it looked like it was going to peter out to a 2-1.
    Absolutely vital to get that 3rd goal.

    In brief:

    I think we'll go through.

    Once I saw the draw, I always felt Emery would get one over his old club.

    However I don't know what we'll do in the final, especially as it's a one off game and if we start as silly as we did today, any serious team will just score and shut up shop against us for the remaining 80 mins.

    I really don't want to meet Chelsea but don't think we'd be that great against the Germans either. But anyway it's been a good day and a good run so far, so lets get back to our bread n butter, here we come seagulls :D
