Arsenal were incredible last night. The triangle of Hleb, Flamini and Cesc was incisive and fluid. Everyone played their part - Gallas was a rock. Senderos found himself in the box volleying a shot goals bound (Should have scored)! Everything had purpose but wasn't rushed or overly intricate. The scoreline was fairish on the night but over the two legs it flattered Milan. What a performance.


Bring on Barca.

Well played paragon, couldn't have put it better myself. each player was a hero, I thought Sebderos had a good game, and as always Sagna had a great game but doesn't get enough praise. For me (as Le Boss would say) Flamini was man of the match, and Theo doing a nuts on Kaka was priceless.

Good work Arsenal last night, bloody good result!


Poor little hard done by victims ;-) Sorry couldn't resist after Atila's post >:D<


Loz, I'm sure the CPT will be showing Chelsea tonight, and yes, some of the regulars are Chelsea fans, so you'll be welcomed. If you don't fancy it, I guess The Mag and The EDT will be showing it too...

feel the good mood in this thread today!


Atila is right when he says the papers go all "crisis!" when Arsenal hit a bad patch. Every single year. But then again, reading the overly-glowing write-ups today you would think we were the second coming. And that ain't true either (yet anyway...)

Sean, while I agree that the papers are glowing in their reports on our game, let's face it, they are reflecting what actually happened, which is a refreshing change for our press. Good to see the AC manager being gracious in defeat and giving us praise for a good performance.

It's true - I did enjoy the bus in this morning *grins*


It was like watching a different team to the last 4 weeks. Is this how Liverpool fans feel after watching European games? Hopefully we don't return to hum-drum on Sunday


Having Fabregas back to his best was great to watch. The usal suspects Hleb/Flamini/Ade are getting all due praise but have to agree with Sagna - he is outstanding week in week out for us (as was Lauren but Sagna has teh added ability to actually cross a ball)

There are obviously far too many Gooners on this thread for my liking but then I don't blame any of you for being very happy bunnies this today. Congratulations on a fantastic win and an excellent performance. Good to see a young Englishman in there supplying a bit of amunition at the end as well. You haven't won anything yet though.

I've heard that too, but unless Le Boss knows something or sees something in him that I've failed to see, I'd rather hang onto Flamini. No disrespect to Noble but he ain't in the same league as Matty.

That's a bit harsh Atila. Mark Noble is still a very young player and a good one at that. Definitely one for the future I'd say but if anyone can turn him into a better one it's La Wenger and then of course you'll be saying he's the best thing since sliced bread won't you.

It's a pity we can't hang on to our talent. Half the England squad seem to have come out of our academy and I don't doubt I'll be seeing Noble at one of our rivals and in an England shirt at some point.

I seem to recall a chant at White Hart lane a few short years ago on the lines of

"West Ham is our feeder club doo dah" You can guess the rest.

*silently weeps*

Going to be some great ties when the draw is made.


Teams still in - Arsenal, Man U, Chelsea, Roma, Schalke, Barca, Fenerbache, L'Pool/Inter Milan.


Hopefully Liverpool will get through and no doubt they will get Schalke in the draw! I think Inter are the most dangerous team in the draw for the UK contingent. Assuming Arsenal can keep the momentum from Tuesday up I have no doubt that they can do anyone. I don't think any team even playing at their best would beat Arsenal on the form they showed on Tuesday. Shame Celtic didn't get through - would have loved to see 5/8 teams from UK.


If they reduce our quota to 3 it will be a joke and damaging to the European game.

    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
