PSG/Barca and City/Roma is the obvious watch list today.

Roma can beat City. Going to be a solid match.

Bayern squeezed out an early victory. All other matches close at the half. Great day for UCL football.

Well, this is just going to be a dreadful season in all competitions. Fan-fuging-tastic.

Looks like Welbeck is amazing acquisition. 5 goals in 4 games. Alexis-Welbeck-Chamberlain upfront absolutely shredded Galatasaray. I don't ever recall Arsenal having so much pace upfront. Walcott is coming back in 2 weeks as well.

 

PS:  I hope Ospina will get the start sooner than later.

Were the opposing fans the ones throwing fireworks on the field? I couldn't tell

Flares. Common practice in international football outside of England.

Happy to be one of only four teams yet to concede a goal (with two of the other three being involved in a scoreless draw).  Also happy to be atop the so called "Group of Death."  All that being said, two goals in 180 minutes is not going to cut it deeper in the competition.

I know. Some of them looked more like bottle rockets. I was sort of watching it.

 

Anyway it was Galatasaray fans. I googled.

Yes.  Expect heavy fines for turkish team.

Just read Arsenal will likely be fined as well.

Looks like it was an overkill by multiple reports.

Yes, Arsenal stadium security failed to prevent Turkish fans from sneaking flares into stadium but Galatasaray is gonna be severelly punished.  Apparently their fans also set fires outside the stadium after the game.

Oh, it was nuts. They didn't just have them, they were straight throwing them on the pitch. I read they were threatening to throw them at Arsenal supporters too. Crazy stuff.
