PSV set up really well to defend and they did just that. Across the floor football wasn't working because they were so compact in the box. When we subbed in Fellani I thought we'd be going wide and crossing but for some reason we kept playing across the floor.

Only plus was the link play between Depay and Martial, looks promising..

Hopefully they can bring it over into the league. Depay hasn't made as much of an impact in the domestic league as he has the champions league.

Gutted for Shaw, has had a great start to the season and now faces a very long time out.

Am I right in saying that ITV has lost the Champions League to BT? I have BT Sport, but apparently they are going to start charging for it (if they haven't already), which considering how much I pay for a BT line and broadband is a bit cheeky, but never mind.

Bad night for Mancunians all round - shame about Luke Shaw, never good to see such a serious injury for a talented player

 

[MUSC4EVER]

BT Sport have the rights to show all games live from this season, ITV gets a highlights show, not sure what Sky gets, if anything..

Yeah, ITV lost the rights to all their live games (they have a highlights package), so that's great.. BTSport will show every game AFAIK. They will also show a handful of games on a new BTSport Free to air channel, haven't really looked too much into that though.

Should be a comfortable match for Arsenal tomorrow but looking forward to Roma-Barcelona and Valencia-Zenit. Both could be tight matches.

I just seen the actual Shaw injury in its most disgusting form. It really is no wonder Moreno was horrified after making the tackle. His leg looked Djibriel Cisse/Aaron Ramsey-like....

If you renew for another 12 months, you don't have to pay for it, you should have got a letter. You may have missed the deadline now though.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Lets see if the London clubs can do any better tonight..

Mourinho has made six changes tonight, no surprise after their shocking start..

 

[SagarisGTB]

Florenzi with the goal of matchday 1 surely.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Zagreb 1-0 v Arsenal and Chelsea 1-0 up v Maccabi through Willian and Hazard had a penalty which was skyed, very high!

Giroud off for Arsenal, second Yellow!

 

[lxmmy]

Please Arsenal just sign a striker in January. We look weak attacking wise.

Bayer are all over BATE but can't find the end finish.

 

[SagarisGTB]

Andre Gomes makes it 2-2 at the Mestalla. 👍

Edit: But Zenit quiets the crowd minutes later through Witsel.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Arsenal lose 2-1 in Zagreb and Chelsea beat Tel-Aviv 4-0..

 

[lxmmy]

Bayer win 4-1 which has cheered me up after an abysmal performance by Arsenal.

 

[mikeerfol]

edit never mind

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Champions League back this week, Chelsea away to Porto and Arsenal at home to Olympiakos tomorrow with City away to Moenchengladbach and Man United home to Wolfsburg on Wednesday..

 

[Michelin]

Barcelona 0 - 1 Bayern Leverkusen
Bate Borisov 3 - 0 Roma

 

[Akmuq]

Munich 4-0 Zagreb

Bayern have been absolutely ruthless this season so far. Will have to wait and see what happens against big teams but they are currently my pick for the overall crown.

 

[Michelin]

Arsenal losing to Olympiakos 1-0... being last in Munich's group with 0 points is the worst possible scenario to Arsenal.

EDIT: Porto 1-0 Chelsea... 🤬!

And Arsenal 1-2 Olympiakos.

 

[Dennisch]

Mourinho isn't going to make it till Christmas.

Seems like...

> mfw BATE 3 - 0 Roma

Oh, and Chelsea have managed to equalise.

 

[Vegard]

Arsenal losing to Olympiakos 1-0... being last in Munich's group with 0 points is the worst possible scenario to Arsenal.

If they lose tonight they'll probably have to win one of their games vs Bayern if they want to qualify.

BATE 3 - 0 Roma

> mfw BATE 3 - 0 Roma

 

[mikeerfol]

Finally we won an away game in England, Roberto's saves were crucial as always!

 

[Vegard]

Arsenal are as 🤬 as it is possible to be. 0 points in 2 games and back to back games against Bayern next.

Forget the round of 16, at this rate they'll miss the Europa League spot.

 

[m8h3r]

Well Arsenal are in a pretty bad spot right now but knowing them they'll do the double over Bayern then scrape a point from the other 2 and go through.
