Did you see the one he got in the top corner? Undefendable.

Top corner? What are you on about?
Robinho's first goal came after Sagna the tard decided to jog after letting Ibra through. Ibra crossed the ball and Robinho scored with his head with at least 3 Arsenal players in the box.
2nd goal was a good finish to the bottom corner. TV slipped and gave him a chance to shoot. Hardly undefendable.

Arsenal were shit and you know it ;) Relying on RVP too much.

Btw how good were Arsenal against Sunderland this morning?

Chances of top 4 this year? Spurs, Liverpool and Newcastle coming up lolol

CSKA vs Madrid, Napoli vs Chelsea, Basel vs Munich and Marseille vs Inter this week.
Which game are you guys looking forward to?
Napoli vs Chelsea looks like a good match up, Napoli thrashed Fiorentina on the weekend while Chelsea drew to Birmingham. But can't underestimate a team with Drogba, Mata, Essien, Sturridge and the perennially out of form Torres.
Madrid, Napoli, Munich and Marseille to win me thinks.

Basel Bayern is the big one imo. You are guaranteed entertainment with those two. CSKA will be cagey, Napoli you get the sense will be a game of simply counterattacking, and Inter are too uninteresting this season for that match to be any good.

3 clear-cut ties for me this week - Napoli, Bayern, and Madrid comfortably.

The interesting one is OM-Inter. Both sides are going average in their respective leagues at the minute and home UCL form for both isn't the best.

I'm looking forward to Napoli/Chelsea the most. Napoli at home are like they're playing with 12 men, it's SUCH a hostile venue to play at. Plus you'd think Chelsea would be desperate to snap their shit streak...

FCB/FCB is not clear cut. Bayern have played total shit in '12, no Schweinsteiger....could be tough.

OM have bee involved in some of the most boring CL matches ever in recent years. That could be a real snoozer.

I think Bayern Munich still have more class than Basel tho. Maybe Shaqiri will be out to impress his new team next year, and the Frei's too did some damage vs united.

I still can't get over how the heck Man Utd got eliminated in the group stage this year yet clearly lead the Premier League standings. When am I ever going to see Man U vs Real Madrid in the CL?

Haha and Man City are out too.
I think for Utd, they were too complacent and thought they'd walk it. Basel and Benfica took the game to them and they weren't ready.
City had no European experience. Mancini has always been a bit shite in Europe even with Inter. With the players they have you'd think they'd at least beat Napoli at home.
