Yes it’s only the Europa but it’s good that we seem to be navigating through it with minimal hassle. I’m always critical of Arteta but I have to say I think he got the team balance right tonight….I think it was important to play Jesus even though he was a tad wasteful he makes things happen (a fortnight ago I didn’t think it was necessary against the Norwegian lot)
The only worrying thing is the goals are drying up a bit but that seems to be being cancelled out by clean sheets…three on the bounce.
We do need to strengthen in January, but yeah we’ve done what we needed to tonight so no complaints
