Sanchez! One-nil to the Arsenal

Malmo 2-0 goal against RB Salzburg

Arsenal are really bad, Besiktas deserved a penalty.

Arsenal will do this for ever - sneak through to the CL proper, anyone expecting the likes of Besiktas to score away from home are deluded.

Second yellow for Dabooshee. Nothing ever lasts forever Lulu.

Lololol Napoli's defence.

Pity for them as I don't think they'll qualify again this year.

Beskitas wouldn't score if Arsenal went down to 7. Rubbish.

Teams from behind the Iron Curtain + Greece, Turkey & Israel are notoriously shite away from home. Arsenal more likely to get 2 here.

Fucking Ba. Only scores to deny us the title.

Very happy for Athletic Bilbao to finally make it to Champions League. Hopefully they will do better there than Villarreal and Real Sociedad during previous two years, at least trips to San Mames shouldn't be easy for opponents.

1 - 0 and we are through - just. Phew.

Better from us than in the first leg - Sanchez broke his duck and generally did well, though he looked knackered at the end. However Cazorla played like a fiend. Have to say we were lucky with pen claims ref didn't give but then he balanced it out by sending off Debuchy (another one who had a good match) and booking Chambers for coming onto the pitch too early.

ATHLETIC!!!

Also, Valverde > Rafa

Watched the ending of Ludogorets-Steaua Bucharest, mental utter mental ending. Surely there will be a vid out there already. Keeper gets red in the last minute of the game, so Moti goes on goal. Game goes to pens, he saves two and shoots one in himself. Thats beyond epic, as a kid I used to dream to do that against ajax and germany!

It's a perfect model for the next Captain Tsubasa movie, too.

No excuse for Leverkusen, they have to qualify.  

Some interesting games.

Malmö and Zenit the only surprises. Well should have known RedBull, they always lose qualification games.

Rafa has wasted so much money over the last 12 months (120m in transfers?), and his side doesn't look any stronger than Mazzarri's Napoli. He tries to change too much too soon, instead of upgrading. Napoli looked shite yesterday, no way are they challenging Juve & Roma for the title. If Fiorentina can keep Rossi & Gomez fit for most of the season (and keep hold of Cuadrado), they will also finish above Napoli.

I am just glad Inter did not give Rafa 100m to play around with... a proper idiot of a coach.

I thought Benitez was supposed to be some sort of CL specialist?

yep, of the scam sort
