Match Reaction v Borussia Dortmund

[Cripps_orig]

It was a good point at a tough place.

Unlike at the weekend where a performance was needed, yesterday was all about getting a result and we got that

Job done

[Özim]

Most disappointing thing about Dortmund was their end product and shooting. Despite pretty football they really lacked a cutting edge, many of there shots were gentle shots or just off target. In truth they didn't really threaten the goal that much.

Was a bit disappointed with them to be honest, think they could use a quality striker up front as well, thought they were very wasteful.

[Marc Overmars]

Dortmund will give anyone a game at home and it's generally accepted they are a very good team. We drew the short straw in getting them from the pot of so called whipping-boys.

There's really no need to disect last night too much. I thought we defended well for the most part and any other side would have been praised for a brave and robust performance. No one is saying we weren't without our faults but we've all seen far worse from this team and against lesser opposition as well.

Like Lucas Barrios?

Like Lucas Barrios?

Not sure, not familiar with him though he seems to have a good goal record.

Was he injured?

Not really thought we were pretty sh*t, defended ok enough but the rest of our game going forward was poor.

Dortmund were the better team they just had no cutting edge, aside from the wonderstrike they barely had any decent efforts on goal.

Why are people still talking about getting Cahill in jan? We saw what a good CB looked like last night in Hummels and Subtovic, a class above tbh.

Now this I can agree with!

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Not at all yesterday was not about perfomace it was about getting the teams confidence up by getting a point and a draw and we achieved it. People are praiing the effort of the players not the tactics. and Wenger had nothing to do with changes or tatcis all down to rice yesterday.

if you honestly believe that then you're deluded. you think wenger said to pat, 'listen do what you want and call the shots' ?

not a chance. wenger will have sat down with pat before the game for an hour and listed out all the different possibilities and what to do depending on how the games going.

and if he didn't do this he needs to be sacked because it's basic responsibilities expected from a manager who's paid £6m a year.

Harsh to say we were shit, but its your Opinion so i repect it, we went there and did what we needed and get the point all gooners would have taken at the begining of the night. Obviously things need to change and we need to perform much much better.
