HAMBURG 1
(Sanogo 90th)

ARSENAL 2
(Gilberto 12th pen, Rosicky 53rd)

Huwarrgggh .... always nice to win away. But it's not so straightforward lah. Hamburg's keeper kena red card in the 12th minute after he tripped Robin van Persie when van Persie beat him and was about to score.

Gilberto scored and then yayyyy .... Rosicky walloped one in.

Then Hamburg hit the bar once and Sonogo scored in the last minute.

Good news - we did this without Thierry Henry (foot injury - but I think he's just resting. Poor fella looked very tired so far this season so I think he bought the MC).

We still lacked the killer instinct but we had 14 shots on goal (7 on target) while Hamburg had 15 shots (5 on target).

Maybe what we need is for Henry to rest while the others try to find their own personal convictions that they can score goals with or without him.

This year may be another "transition" year for us in the EPL but who cares, let Man Utd worry about Chelsea ... we want the Champions League!!!!
