Apparently the bid that was put forward for Guaita, which necessitated Dick Law heading to Valencia yesterday, was €4-5m, according to Marca. If true, it's another penny-pinching valuation that would have been immediately rejected. I don't know how anyone inside Arsenal can't see that.

According to Wikipedia, Guaita was born in a place called Torrent. Arsenal probably thought they could get him for free

Ah even if we won 4-0 nil they would find ways to pick holes in the performance it's RTE the bias towards some teams is ridiculous.

Could be worse though I'm in work will be trying to watch it on my phone unable to hear commentary etc while getting work done, I've a feeling I wont be doing to much for the first few hours.

Whelan has never got over 89. He hates Arsenal with a passion.

We need a good effort from Walcott tonight. Keep the Turks busy at their end. No hiding tonight.

Very fearful for us tonight. If we play well we should win play like we did on Saturday, we be coming home out of the CL.

Not too worried about the CL. We are not strong enough to get anywhere near the winners enclosure and any money earned in it would not be spent on the team anyway.
We should win though.

It's probably our last chance at the CL's for a while. so hopefully we will win.

Jesus Fenerbache are woeful.

I'm worried if we win by a few goals. Wenger will think we don't need to buy anyone.

Santi is class deserves better players around him.

Maybe in seasons past but I think he knows that there's much more pressure on him now. He must also see that the squad has never been this thin.

I'm happy now. Why?

Ramsey would want to pick his passes out better. He has given it away 4 times.
Trying very hard though in fairness but a poor ball could cost us.

You give out yards about everything to do with the club. Then as soon as we start passing the ball about and playing well you say you're worried that we might score a few goals.

Just support the team FFS.

Do we ever get any luck

Is Ray Houghton actually stupid? Does he live under a rock?

Well he could have got a striker if he was willing to pay that little extra. But RTE are clowns it's all anti-Arsenal.

Desperately need a winger and striker, don't even know what to call theo position and footballing wise

Have we done anything on that position since the 40m+1 bid around 3-4 weeks ago?

We are defending too high up the pitch. Wide open to a ball over the top as Mert is not quick.

Are crossing is ****ing awful. Anyway there isn't anyone in the box to hit. Get some men in the box.

Gringo180

Devoid of quality up front absolutely hopeless is the final third we are. This Fenerbache are the worst team ive seen in the Champs Lge in a long time.

Wenger is the twat, you are playing in the CL without any strikers! Terrible game, the pitch is awfully soft. Fener can't pass at all.

Girouds movement tonight is poor he was nearly playing on the left wing the last 5 minutes and there was nobody up front till wilshere made a run up top. If Higuain was there its 2 nil to us at least.

New bid for Suraez 30m + 2.

we look toothless up front. on a more positive note, our midfield is doing a lot better than Saturday. could be because fener are playing so poorly though

I'd put in a £30m Benteke bid. Prob too late now though.

Be careful the Giroud supporters be on to say he's misunderstood.

gnfnrhead

At this rate we'll be giving Pat Rice and Laim Brady a run out on the weekend. I know we have a small squad, but the amount of injuries we seem to have picked up already couldn't have been accounted for.

They are an awful team. we should be a few goals up .

Think I've crossed over to the group of people who think Giroud is just not good enough...

Our style just can't work with a slow player

I dont care what they say our lack of quality up front is indefensible and most of that is down to Giroud. Id rather give Sanogo a chance at least his pace could hurt them. We so need a top striker.

Totally agree.
