    Agreed.

    On we go

    Hope we react like a wounded tiger and smash Palace to pieces on Saturday.

    Very unlucky, as we had those fuckers pegged back until they scored the winner against the run of play.

    Nothing to be ashamed of, but our record at home against German teams is a bit worrying.

    Ref was shit, something which I can never get used to.

    Played ok today, but two defensive balls-ups in a tight game is fatal - undermined all the good work unfortunately.

    I don't see us getting anything in Germany which means Napoli away is potentially make or break. It just shows what a tough group this is.

    You learn more about team character after a defeat.

    This is a wake up call for the team that for all their great performances against the very top teams you get punished in a flash.

    We were desperately unlucky not to get a draw. They were second to almost every ball in the second half. Camorra coming on changed the game for us. What balance and vision. Stunning link up plays. Thought Rosicky was brilliant and in my opinion a natural in that centre mid role. I felt this game shows Arteta as an important cog. Also let's not forget our first goal was a mistake by Ramsey.

    Ozil had his poorest game for us. Struggled to get into the game.

    Giroud was brilliant in my opinion and you can see towards the end he is getting tired. We are missing our pace outlet. It takes time for us to get to the other end of here pitch whereas with Dortmund they had that outlet of pace needed.

    Can't help but think we miss the energy that Flamini brings and the tempo he brings.

    Anyway it will help bring the team back down to Earth and re focus them.

    Yes Dortmund played well but we were desperately unlucky to lose.m

    It was a well balanced game, Dortmund were just as strong as us. At the end it went down to who made the best out of opponent mistakes and they took theirs with both hands. I am confident we will qualify for the knockout stage.

    thought we deserved the win. lewandoski shouldnt have been on the pitch when he scored and no idea why ramseys goal was ruled out.


    wenger wasnt schooled in tactics in either, two indivdual mistakes. ramsey for the first, and sagna for the second. no idea where he was then.

    if we play like that against most sides we will win. time to move on, lots to take out of that game, like santi, arteta, rosicky and girouds performances. all were superb. luck wasnt on our side tonight

    Not great result and if we don't get something in Dortmund, napoli is the last game.

    We will space palace but against better sides need pace in side to stretch oppo.

    Rozza should start in midfield ahead of Jack IMO, he a better all rounder and comfortable playing anywhere in that forward midfield role.
