Great win after being outplayed for the first 50 odd mins.

Qualified. Nothing else matters. Play the kids in the last group game to give them a runout.
Very happy with that. Can enjoy Matchday 6 whatever happens.

Send 18 GWers to Greece.
Me in midfield.
A very solid, mature and professional performance (apart from Djourou and Song right at the end trying to play on-twos at our corner flag Vermaelen and Szczesny were going mental at them.)
A fantastic team effort. Song bossed the game. A very good supporting role played by Ramsey. Santos was very good (in defence as well today). Szczesny with an important stop in the second half. I think pretty much everyone played their part. Gerv hasn’t had the best week but with the effort he puts in, he’ll start getting some good luck.
The quality of the game was high - it was a match between two very good teams. They just couldn’t get past Mertesacker - haven’t been his greatest fan (though I think he has done ok this season), today he played very well.
Arsenal.
Good, professional performance. Apart from the last minute.
Koscielny, Vermaelen, Santos, Mertesacker, Song all awesome
Arteta also very solid defensively.

Song is a genius
A workmanlike performance but we got the result in the end. It's extremely important we've finished top as well, meaning we'll avoid having to face someone like Barca in the next round. Would still like our midfield to step it up in terms of creativity though. Song's having to do a lot of work, not only covering defensively but providing offensively as well. Arteta needs to do more.
Didn't know we've guaranteed top place. That's very handy. We might as well send a shit side out in Greece. No need for Van Persie, Song, Vermaelen to even travel.
