OLY played a **** half, but Dudu scored from 30+ yards out on a rocket in the 46th. We won 0-2 easy in Moldova. Sheriff has very little chance of moving on since they have to walk into our fortress next leg.

I'm pretty excited to see if PAO can win at home tomorrow.

Celtic were disappointing.

They were unlucky, but they were also crap and dirty, so they deserved it.

I'm about to watch the Arsenal-Celtic game. Those blue jerseys are sweet. Might nab myself an Eduardo shirt.

I don't like it, it looks like a training shirt. Yellow with blue sleeves is the real away kit to me.

I liked the Maroon one, Henry wore it well.

The centenary one? That was home though. I didn't like that one either. I guess I'm just too conservative or something. Red with white sleeves, yellow with blue sleeves, that's Arsenal for me.

I like the centenary one.

I might be in the minority for this one but I liked the Blue/Maroon horizontal stripes third kits too.

I loved the Arsenal jerseys tonight. One of the few jerseys you could wear on your jeans casually.

Hey Andris, have you heard about Debrecen? They beat Levski 2-1 away for a place in the group stages!

Can't believe no one watch the Lyon match, the 19 year old Bosnian sensation scored a cracker from 24 meters out the ball went 124km/h it was beautiful. Miralem Pjanic you lads have to remember that name he is going to be very special!

GDS20 · Post #17 » by **GDS20** » Thu Aug 20, 2009 4:18 pm

He might be as good as Elvir Bolić

El Turco · Post #18 » by **El Turco** » Thu Aug 20, 2009 7:51 pm

position he plays is closer to Elvir Baljic.

Hungary has a team in the group stages for the first time for fourteen years, yay

Go Debrecen!
The Hungarian domination will continue in September.
