Yeah. A couple of wins and they go on a long run of wins like the last couple of seasons. Just shows what a bit of confidence can do to them.

Good to see some Arsenal players scoring during the European qualifiers.

RVP's OG was also good to see. Wrong footed the keeper with a great header hehe

Always been a fan of these analysis pieces that Pat Nevin does on BBC website

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34473910

Whatever we all think (and clearly those opinions are diverse!) he's doing a decent job at the moment. He's not world class but as Nevin points out he asks very different questions of the defence from Giroud and definitely creates space for the midfield.

How on earth the club can let someone like "Sir Chips Keswick" represent them is fking beyond me. Gazidis and Wenger are very impressive speakers....Keswick belongs in another era .... His patronising attitude was just fking awful.

Lots of people saying Wenger will retire in 18 months...IMHO Wenger won't go unless they have the right person lined up. Unlike Man U we can't spunk £300 mil rebuilding a team if f they get it wrong. That either means they have someone lined up already or it's not definite.

I said that last week on the TOS, if Klop does well at Liverpool & his wife settles in the UK then the lure of a really big team in London would be hard for him to turn down.

Can't see it myself. A lot of people had him nailed on to take over from Pep at Bayern next summer, yet we find him in Liverpool...

I think the man they really want is Pep. I can't see him leaving this Bayern team in a hurry but his contract expires next summer.

If they could get Pep next summer Wenger would go IMHO....if they had to wait three years to get him I reckon Wenger might wait. Sad to say I think Klopp could be good for Liverpool and don't see him leaving any time soon. Although with all the money around now and say Klopp has two years left to run on his rumoured £7mil a year contract paying £14mil to get a great manger is not maybe the worst piece of business.

If Klopp is a success at Liverpool then i think they would up his pay to stay.Liverpool have never not offered good money it's just more of where the player or manager wants to work.

I really cannot see why pep would want to come to Arsenal having Managed two big Euro power house teams. I think the people in charge at Arsenal don't share the same ambitions as Real, Barca & Bayern do , Shame really as they have the fans, stadium & the money.

Klopp has proved he's quite a loyal guy to teams, he was at BD for quite a while, and if he does OK in the PL with Liverpool, odds on he'll stay there. If our board had wanted Klopp, they should have done something about it 2 years ago - that boat has sailed now IMHO. Snooze and you loose, and the Arsenal board have proved that snoozing and loosing is what they are good at.
Pep will be going to Manchester when he leaves BM.....either to City or to Utd when Gaal quits. Rumour is he's City bound.....but I wouldn't be surprised if the lure of Utd might not pull him there, when Gaal retires. Anyone that thinks he'll be coming to the Emirates at anytime in the future is delusional.

Decent win today...more goals today at Vicarage Road than there have been all season smile and a clean sheet to add to the collection....makes us the joint best defence in the league with that team from Middlesex.

Bayern's form seems to be okay going into this game...



Nothing to be concerned about.

They talk about how good the save is, Walcott went right down the middle.

Arsenal attacking has generally been pretty sloppy, missed some right sitters.
