Cheers lads, much appreciated. Hate not being able to watch the games.

Not that I can watch it religiously in work but on and off and get to see the goals is better than nothing.

We all know you are not going to work hard tonight:D
And now, since you can stream it to your phone... I hope you will see those goals anyway.

I wouldn't take any risk tonight - fully fit squad, and adjust if the score is right (2-0 would do)...

1-0 will do. As soon as we go one up take off Giroud and Ramsey. Napoli would need 4 to eliminate us.

This should work, I am still a bit worried for some reason....I am sure we will win, not sure how soon. We are well ahead, but I would prefer to have the strongest squad - better safe than sorry.
Even if we scored first, there is (very slight chance) Napoli will strike back more than once. We are away, we are to be very careful.

A draw would win us the group surely. Am I right?

Yes.

Wenger and Henry in an awkward moment live on sky!

Spanish Johnny

Walcott on the bench. If this continues there will be rumours of Walcott and Wenger's daughter a la Zaha/Moyes!

They reckon could be Saturday in mind.

Mr.Micro

Avanti..... The gunners:D

Really enjoying Henry and Neville here, Henry is very knowledgeable, youngsters could learn so much from him.

Mickeroo

This is gas.

Neeson

Isn't the match on RTE 2? Why is the Big Bang theory on?

On the player it isn't. Even though it's scheduled.

Sorry, don't know about the player schedule.

Ed Winchester

No match thread? Very quiet here.

bad2dabone

Match thread up?

tayto lover

Need to silence the crowd by keeping them quiet for 15/20 minutes.

bad2dabone

Marseilles sinking already

Ed Winchester

Sloppy enough start

jamescd

Marseille have equalised against Dortmund

Gringo180

Its hard to believe Rosicky is 33. He has the energy of a 25 year old, very under rated player he is.

efb

Have we given up on match threads?

Ed Winchester

What would need to happen for both us and Napoli to qualify?

Pen.Island

Arsenal under the cosh so far.

Cheers, for some reason i had in my head Dortmund were on 12 already.

bad2dabone

The crowd are very intimidating i would say.

tayto lover

We are doing ok but I would prefer to see us holding possession for longer periods.

gosplan

I hope all the people still knocking Giroud are keeping an eye on his contribution here.

Ed Winchester

Mert has a brilliant sense of position.

Gringo180

Strange to see Napoli in yellow is there home jersey not sky blue??

.jacksparrow.

Santi looking more like last season, good to see.

Was just about to post this.

Red Crow

Hate to see players doing that. Cazorla looking for Maggio to be booked.

Ed Winchester

Good save. Decent looking move there.

Gringo180

Havent got the pace for the counter attacking option, Walcott would of been ideal for tonights game I feel.

gandalf

OMG Ozil is human after all!

greendom

Some silky skills from Jenkinson - nice to see

Ed Winchester

We've settled into the game now. Looking much more composed.

He's on the bench. I think he would be ideal to come on in the 60th or 70th minute when Napoli are tiring.

tayto lover

Someone must have had words with Santi. He's even tackling tonight.

Yeah thats true. Looking at our bench now it is very strong indeed which is great to see.

tayto lover

Gibbs nearly fell asleep there again. Needs to focus more. When he does he's excellent but seems to have lapses of concentration.

Good to see - even more importantly he seems to have refound his touch

bad2dabone

Girouds workrate is admirable

Ed Winchester

Higuain seems like a right moany sort. Berating his team-mates when he's not given the pass or the pass isn't to his liking.

Bullet dodged maybe?

gandalf

Ref needs to clamp down on these petty fouls by Napoli.
