Look at it again.

Closely

Should be a comfortable win. 2-0 sounds about right.

I think it's good news that Diaby's back. Think he'll enjoy playing under a counter-attacking style with this team, but he'll need to pull his weight in defence. A handy player to have - if he settles in with a few sub appearances, then Ramsey or Arteta could sit the odd game out with the busy schedule over winter.

I'm sitting near the away fans for this. The atmosphere and noise should be pretty good, given how vocal and numerous a following Dortmund have. :popcorn:

Apparently the Dortmund fans have been buying tickets in the Arsenal sections as well to further their support. I hope there is no trouble is all

Said similar myself, I think Diaby could be a good player in this more balanced, prima donnaless team!
