    Well we’re definitely in for a difficult tie looking at those teams.

    Would quite like Juve, haven’t played them since the 2006 CL run.

    it's funny, most of the unseeded ones look better than the seeded ones, although I say that having watched very few of them recently...

    I'd love to stick it to Shakhtar after they messed us around over Mudryk

    I absolutely couldn’t give a shit about this competition. At best, the chance of winning it would be a consolation prize if we don’t win the league…but apart from that it’s a distraction. And it’s additional fixtures we don’t need

    Going out of competions goes so well for us normally.

    It’s an extra 7 games at most. If we’re not capable of dealing with that we have no business calling ourselves a top club. Ask any United right now if they care about playing so many games?

    No good has ever come to us from exiting competitions in the name of the greater good. It always backfires miserably because winning is winning and losing is losing, these things have knock on effects.

    Barring a disaster we’ll be back in the CL next season, so I’d say we better get used to European competition again.

    I desperately want to win this.
    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.

    I like the European games at the Emirates - the away fans are always really up for it and it's interesting to see different teams

    I feel the pressure is off as it's not (hopefully) going to dictate whether we're in Champions League and I'd be happy to see a bit of rotation even if it means some of the games will be trickier

    hopefully our need to really concentrate on the league might make Arteta think he can change things round a bit - but then again this is Arteta we're talking about...
