Good result.
It was indeed a good point. Anything away from home in the CL is a good result particuarly against a side of this calibre.
Pity we couldn't hold on because we defended so well, but it was a great strike and there was nothing we could have done about it.
I thought we were wasteful in midfield and invited a lot of the pressure on. No one could really pick a pass, but maybe you have to give Dortmund credit for closing us down. Gervinho was the biggest sinner IMO, lost count of amount of times I was shouting "Look up!"...he just seems intent on running into brick walls.
A positive start to the group anyway which must be backed up with a win against Olyimpiakos, which I'm sure it will.
fairly annoying (particularly because of our habit of late goals conceded) but pleased with some showing of resilience

Good effort on the whole, a draw away from home against the German champions is a good result.
Mertesacker doesn't seem to be hindered by his lack of pace as his positioning has been spot on. Chesney with a couple big saves to keep us in it.
Not sure why we bring on Shitmakh, he adds nothing and is him coming on is the same as us going down to ten men.
Only error I can see is the tactics, Walcott for Frimpong was puzzling as we needed an outlet to take the pressure off our defense, they had free run at us for 25 odd minutes before their goal.
The King Is Back.
Arteta and Yoss impressed defensively in the 2nd half. Song was immense as well.
The big ass German gets my MOTM vote though.
Attacking wise, pretty shit. Gervinho missing sitters continues on his poor start for us

Shame. Deserved the win but Dortmund scored a great goal to salvage a draw.
Pleased with tonight's effort.
