That really was a great hat trick by Sanchez his first and third goals especially were absolute top class stuff, kinda been glossed over this weekend though by the Aguero tackle, Liverpool losing from a 3 - 1 lead and Fellaini with that last minute penalty giveaway.
A hat-trick of goals and a hat-trick of **** ups by other clubs - perfect weekend!

Ozil will be fine, he's only had a decent season by his standards but he will be fine.
I have VERY high expectations of Ozil, he should be a Ballon D'or contender, but doesn't deliver that top form enough.
Against Man Utd he may have well been back in London.

Bellerin and Mertesacker back in full training (edit: training with the first team, not full training)

Should be resting Sanchez, Xhaka and Kos tomorrow (as well as Cech). No need to play a full team.

Wenger starting all over Sanchez, Ozil & Kos in what is a pointless game pretty much lol, I saw the League Cup game vs Southampton as more important than this game.

At the moment there is Napoli, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Monaco, Dortmund, Leicester, and Juventus top, and PSG, Benfica, Man City, Bayern, Leverkeusen, Real Madrid, Porto, and Sevilla in second.

I don't think there's any particular bonus to finishing second in the group this year, plenty of opponents to avoid in the round of 16 in both lists.

Four Spaniards, two winners and two runners up, means we're highly likely to draw one anyway.

We will still get dicked I reckon. UEFA draws are so obviously rigged (moreso than others), and whenever we seem to finish top, a plethora of great teams seem to finish runner up.

Really impressed with Perez. Pace, versatility, and a good finisher. Handy having 3 strikers fit heading into the busiest part of the season, with Perez a good option on the wing too.

Good management of Ozil and Sanchez By Wenger. Squad depth/fitness is the best we've had in a decade.

4-1 now.

Very impressive from Lucas. Glad he's struck form. With Walcott and Iwobi etc struggling, he may get a chance.

PSG trailing 2-1 still....
