Fernebahce 0-3 Arsenal: Thank God!

Phew! am I glad we won comfortably in the end. Credit to Fernebahce, they were very poor indeed. I expected much more threat from them. We still had to dig out a result so credit to our boys for winning and not conceding a goal away from home.

3 nil lead going to the second leg at home? barring a serious footballing catastrophe, you have to fancy Arsenal being in the group stages of the Champions League proper now. This is where it gets interesting.

Now that Arsenal are virtually a bona fide Champions League team this season, will we now go and buy the type of player who otherwise would not come to Arsenal had we not qualified? Arsene Wenger said;

"... it starts now." According to Arsene Wenger, the buying window is now open for Arsenal. Make of that what you will. I choose to remain quietly hopeful. The links with Suarez have resurfaced although Wenger dismissed it as dead. Poker? I hope so. Else where we are linked with Karim Benzema and Angel Di Maria. I wont bother to link...

I am not happy that the season has started and we are now talking about starting to buy players in the last 12 days but... better late than never.

Much has been said about our failure to buy players early and bed them into the team. We face a tricky tie at Fulham at the weekend. If we fail to get a result out of that game, the chanting will be louder this time around.

Please Arsene Wenger, wake up from your slumber and strengthen our Arsenal!

COYG!
