UEFA Champions League Qualifiers 09/10

Gallas celebrated the goal. I cannot believe that.

Oh well, he's scored 2 in 2 so he'll be whinge-free for a few weeks.

I live in Glasgow but someone please stop these clowns singing Y.N.W.A. They actually think they had it first.

Arsenal to win 2-1.

EDIT. Is this the same ref as the CL final last year?

Yes it is the same ref.

And its been argued both ways as to who sang it first.

I've got a footy quiz book somewhere that states that Liverpool were the creators of the song.

Was Definately us, we adopted it in the 60's when it was in the chart and Celtic started it when they were on a march for European cup 4 or 5 years later.

Good game this though, the ref is letting play continue. That DM for Celtic - N'guemo or whatever his name is looks quality.

We certainly have the stronger case to argue.

I think this ref deserves huge credit for his let the game flow attitude tonight. + for the ref .

Oh joy, Wenger will be crying about his players being kicked after the match. If Fabregas learnt what his feet where for we would have one of those yellows.

Dont see it myself, i think he's being a tight b***ard towards Arsenal. Giving them alot of free's when they're doing just as bad.

0-2 Arsenal. So cruel for the skipper - he's been good.

arsenal are so proper jammy. 1st goal in off his arse and 2nd goal an own goal.

Game over.

Poor old Robbie Keane's dad looks gutted on the Celtic bench

Argh i know, just glanced the back of his head and went in.

Yeah suppose the Ref has Wenger glasses a bit but its still a good performance from him.

Gary Caldwell having a poo week.

Me and LFCBAFC have been saying for months. Arsenal are the luckiest team in the world, by quite a stretch, certainly up there with Man Utd. The amount of own goals, last minute goals, deflected goals and penaties they get is unbelievable.

But to be fair, Scottish football is absolutely terrible.

I'm not even sure they deserve automatic entry to the Champions League group for the winners.

Totally agree with you. I was just pointing out the fact that Arsenal are incredibly lucky, even in the Premier League.

The level of football up here is a disgrace, thats why I have been sent up here, to improve grass roots .

You being chosen to improve any kind of root is questionable

Yeah but these are legal roots that fund the illegal ones that nobody knows that I have in the garden.

A. Song seems to be improving in every game he plays - I actually really quite like him as a player.

I been thinking that for the past 2 games of this season and the back end of last, he's a gem. Versatile and quality in each position he plays.

Agreed, he looks comfortable both in defence and in midfield. Strong, agile, very good on the ball, good tackler. Could turn into a really great player and to be honest I don't think Arsenal need to go looking for a defensive midfielder if they can keep this lad fit.
