Seconded, in order to increase our chances in the EPL (easy start; tough end of the year), we need to get CL KO-stage qualification sorted as soon as possible. Any win please. Will not be easy.vin de guerre said:I think we have learnt as a club that there is no room to take such a game easy. We have suffered at the hands of Kiev in the past and we dont want to make life harder for ourselves.
By investing in getting the right results now we will profit later in this group stage and also in the league when things get sticky.
Kain said:Potential for alot of goals in our group all the teams are setup to attack which usualy means... 0-0! the fixture list has been kind enough to let us get this particular away fixture over early, better now then in December in heavy winter.
Im still confident we can get a result there, its a good test as we have had bad results in the past and im hoping Wenger will want to rectify that, win your home games and just dont lose away as far as Champions League football goes in my opinion.
1-0 win or a draw.

The arsenal-mania league from last year is still running.

However if we do actually approach this game in such a manner, then i want to see Robin on the bench, not on the wing. Would be good to give Vela the starting berth at left wing with Wilshere getting the same at right wing. Perhaps play Djourou in the middle of the park.

To be honest, yes! Simply because Wenger has come out and said Song doesn't have the engine for midfield and yet you have fans clamouring to silly hopes thinking they know better than someone who see's him week in, week out.qs said:sabret00the said:The Song obsession is bordering on sad now.

so wanting Song to play is sad but thinking Wilshere should start in our first real CL tie of the season, an away game no less, is just fine and dandy.

When we agreed. I think Song is talented, but i see far more potential for him in the back line than i do in the middle of the park. I'm also a firm believer in the dual box-to-box system that we currently employ.True Gooner said:sabret00the said:To be honest, yes!
