    We're lucky the seeding format is changing because we're on the brink of losing our top seeding through performance under the current format anyway. I hope we get an absolute stinker of a group next year.

    He needs to be rested because he's looked well below par for weeks now. Seems to be releasing the ball a lot quicker and to no avail, instead of taking on his man looking to create that half yard for himself. Early signs of Wengeritis?

    Lots of weird reactions on here, people getting pissed with each other - why?
    We are a team that now aspire to finish 4th in our domestic league. We have a manager under no pressure whatsoever to challenge for titles. We have a team (thanks to our manager) that has very few players of real quality because you only have to be slightly better than mediocre to finish 4th in the P.L.
    If we are a team that aspire to finish 4th, why on earth would anyone on here believe we have the chance to be Champions of Europe - get back to work, don't let last night bother you - its what Wenger will do today with the only difference being that his work gets him £8 mill a year & you're probably better at your job than he is.

    Noticed that too, it seems that way after his mistake for the Monaco goal at the Emirates

    No coach in Europe has his record. Almost 20 years in the competition with one of the leagues best clubs and still no CL trophy.

    No other coach has had that sort of time to build team after team like he has at this level. Those with a fraction of that time have at least won this competition.

    A flip side to every coin and he gloats about the CL qualification record but he has a lot of fails on his record. Consistent fails, year on year. Not even a UEFA Cup even though we made the final once.

    Frankly going out to Monaco is a disgrace, our result yesterday is irrelevant, a tie is played over two legs and we lost that's what counts, not some token 2-0 win against a team we should have beaten anyway.

    When we saw the draw we were all happy and pretty confident of qualifying and yet here we are again out at the last 16 stage, Wenger is a terrible manager in Europe that's been proven time and time again, we can usually hide behind the excuse that we played a big team etc etc not this time however he's been well and truly shown up. As for his clain that Monaco didn't deserve to go through? Well yes they did as they gave us a good beating at the Emirates.

    Next year we will probably get Basel in the last 16 and somehow contrive to make a dogs dinner of that one too.

    Make no mistake, Basel are very capable of beating us

    Wouldn't matter, we'd be out either way.
