Anyway, last night was a disappointment, but in all honesty, was the result unexpected? I don't think so.
Mourinho is a better manager than Arsene and proved it again last night.
+1
IMO one of the BIG differences between wenger and mourinho is that mourinho can adapt the his opponent. wenger just always plays the same way doesn't matter who we face.

Having an unlimited amount of cash helps too. Not taking anything away from Mourinho but it needs to be said when comparing both managers

No, I'm sorry I am not letting that go without a response. I was at that game and we in the North Bank were singing all match, it only quietened down a little after that second goal. We were louder than the chavs throughout the first half and most of the second.

we've basically put a "B" team out there tonight, get over it.
They've put a B team out too. And we haven't been close to them.
Who gives a shit? it's the f***ing COC. Last season after we went out, all everyone said was "oh it's just the COC it means nothing." But this season people are slagging the boys off for not performing in the COC as if it were the f***ing UCL.
At least wait until it's our starting 11 against their starting 11 before you slag the team off and proclaim their shittyness.

Ozil doesn't play on the wing. See diagrams above. Also I use my eyes and can see that Theo crosses frequently and amasses the majority of his assists from crosses or cutbacks.
I don't dispute he crosses frequently, I do dispute he notched up alot of assists last season from crosses.
I also don't think cutbacks are necessarily a winger attribute ie. it's something I think many players would be capable of if they were played out wide. Another way to put is that I think it's more a product of circumstance than the player.

Could only hear Chelsea all game apart from the 'Arrrrsenal Arrrrrsenal' when we kept getting corners. Block 125, dunno where that is compared to you.
