In 30 years they will bring out a commemorative DVD of this glorious, glorious night and a small handful of people will be able to say "I was there"

It was a dead rubber game played out in front of 20,000 people..yet rather than give Nkeiath 70 to 90 minutes the genuis started Welbeck and Giroud . I know they are not regular starters in the "first" team , but they will probably be on the bench at Southampton. Was Wenger's thinking that Welbeck and Giroud score a hat full and he will look a genuis for masterminding a massacre.?
Bate were probably the worst team I have ever seen Arsenal play on TV..
Finally I had to watch it on the EirSport channel, Brian KERR mystery be the most monotonous pundit around....Very forgetable game .
Actually even though I said EirSport were monotonous the commentator said of all the English players on the pitch for Arsenal and others that none of them have really developed under Wenger...Not often you actually hear that from a commentator or pundit..

Yep. Totally missed it.
Re: the europa league .thur 20-05 ko v BATE
Watched the highlights.Thought Welbeck and Wally were rusty, then realised that's as good as their first touch gets.Felt sorry for the guy that gave away the penalty,Theo hadn't a clue what the plan was so how could the poor defender?Bradywasking wrote: ↑Fri Dec 08, 2017 8:22 amWatched this and my lasting impression is that I cannot believe how bad Danny Welbeck was.

Just think, we left the Garden of Eden of world football to finish behind Leicester in the league and play in the UEFA cup in a half empty sterile shopping centre against a team of greengrocers and postmen from Bella magazine.
Re: the europa league .thur 20-05 ko v BATE
In moving to compete with Europe's elite this is what its all about guys - will it be the serial trophy winners Ostersund, the mega rich Ludogorets or a money spinning tie with FC Kobehnavn
All hail Lord Wenger for managing to haul us into this new glorious era of swatting aside the likes of Koln and BATE.
Pass me a cushion someone before I stand up and take someone's eye out

Re: the europa league .thur 20-05 ko v BATE
Only the 4 best 3 rd placed finishers in the champions league group stages are seeded
So we could have drawn Napoli
Re: the europa league .thur 20-05 ko v BATE
Yes
I was at Highbury among the 22'000 that saw us go out to winterslag in 81
Don't remember them putting rose tinted glasses on the seats though
