haha-a lot of positivity on this site though. Must say, I don't remain too confident myself but have a sneaking suspicion that we're going to do it somehow.

Have you looked at Arsenals previous win ratio in Greece. It's worse then Spain.

We're terrible at there

We are going to win. Cech to score 1 from a goal kick. Giroud to score 2, this time only for one team (which team - you will have to wait and see). Ramsey will pressure their midfield into oblivion. Monreal to karate kick their keeper in the throat before the match begins. I pay the ref. Mertesacker gets a body transplant and becomes capable of movement, Flamini gets a loan from the bank based on his soon-to-be extra millions and builds a clone of himself that is actually decent. Chambo to hit our crossbar 6 times forgetting which sides which, and then play with his fancy hair in disgust. Özil to be Özil. Campbell will miss the match because he gets the ****s from eating too much Campbell's soup - the ****ing bellend. Chambers will come into his place and do 1 or 29 stepovers for fun.

That's all I got.
3-2 us

I forgot that if we score 3 goals the 2 goal margin is negated. If we get that many I can't see Olympiakos drawing, it's certainly not as unlikely as the Bayern and Monaco last 16s.

What is it, the Greek air? The grass? Witch craft?

None of what's gone before has any bearing whatsoever on what will happen. What does losing to PAOK Salonica 17 years ago mean?

Anyway, when you look a bit closer to the poorer results we've had out there, I'm sure they'll tell you something more than us just being rubbish in Greece. Pretty sure we've played under strength sides a few times, because we were already through.

Didn't realise the two goal margin was removed with three goals.

Think we'll go through now. Grab a cheap goal from a corner/free-kick and then let Ramsey,Özil, Theo do their thing.

Look, it's going to be a dogfight & Olympiacos have a pretty darn good record at home. In the past we've never gone there needing to win to qualify. I still reckon Olympiacos must be favourites but we've got a good shot at qualifying. How we keep a clean sheet only God knows though, so we're going to have to score a few to get through.

Any permutation could occur and none would surprise.

The truth is we haven't deserved to go through based on the ****ery we played in our 1st two games but we gave ourselves a shot by beating Bayern so maybe, just maybe for once we can win this type of game.

It''d be a huge boost for the club, players & fans to win in Greece.

Even if we go through who do we play in February.

Barcelona, Madrid, PSG.

No thanks. We've already been battered 5-1 Away to one of these high calibre teams. Clearly not ready for this competition yet.

We have to get second. Absolutely cannot afford to play Europa. It's ****e and would damage our PL form WAY more. Would have much preferred to finish last then get 3rd so we better not do our usual close but no cigar routine. This is one situation where winning 1-0 will piss me off more than if we just straight up lose. :lol:

Yeah pretty sure this is the only time we've gone there actually needing a result.

Come on are you serious? Yes we were battered by an incredible Bayern team when we had a pretty shocking team out there.

Ultimate loser attitude to hoping to avoid big games because you might lose. I'd love a tie against Barca, if we were to pull off a miracle win imagine how long we'd remember it for!?

the games will be in fab we will have most our players back like Alexis Wilshere and Welbeck playing in round 16 of CL much better than playing in Europa league.

Honestly, it's like some people have only been watching football for 6 months. Some shocking posts in here.

Those that think getting 3rd in the group will help us in the league need to understand that we still have travel to every corner of Europe and we still have to field strong sides, or get punished.
