Cometh the hour, cometh the man: Mikel Merino.
VAR check UEFA counts the shot at the end as a block so it's not a save or SOG Now I can celebrate the win

Wenger has done a number on Merino, he genuinely went from a player who never was a goal threat at 29 to become a regular scorer when put up-front
Elite coaching, top top
Gunner89 Wenger still doing the business 💪🏻

Good win and another clean sheet. Was almost horrified to learn we might have conceded a shot on goal, thankfully not!
For those who watched how was Hincapie?

Decent. Felt like he was keeping it simple on his first CL start which is probably the wise thing to do
You can’t underestimate the number of wins in the CL as it will ease so much further down line in regards to our Prem games. Bayern at home next game week has very little pressure riding on it. That is huge given the timing of the game in between two huge Prem London derbies.

Think you'll find it's a must win.
Tactics
Missed the game but my issue with him is his lack of mobility which affects our press - which then impacts our ability to suffocate teams. Obviously, he's a great makeshift CF.
Have a feeling we will concede against Sunderland.
Qwiss
Apologies, I've enjoyed the early kick-off with some smooth single smalt and had a good night
Mirth he was decent but looks like a guy who'll can be wound up easily.
RocktheCasbah my Dad insisted on telling everyone he met in France he was Irish straight away cos he reckoned they treated you better if you weren't English.
Qwiss based on what I saw around Paris on that holiday I could well believe it!
Qwiss -- the old American abroad becoming a Canadian trick eh?
Anyone else a bit disappointed with Nwaneri's performance?
Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert Eze didn’t do any better. Think they both missed Gyokeres as he stretches the oppositions defence meaning there is less room for our number 10’s to roam in imo.
4 played 4 wins 0 conceded, 'teta is giving us the best european nights in forget my memory, outside of 2006, he's been our best manager in europe ever
Gunner89 George Graham says hi.
Today we’ve matched Chelsea’s 2004/2005 record of consecutive wins with clean sheets (8).
In teams of just clean sheets they did 10 in a row between Dec 18th and March 5th
