Looks like our luck held out in the CL draw. I'm pretty confident that we'll win our group, which certainly wouldn't have been the case if we'd drawn, say, Valencia. The English clubs should all do fine, but Rangers and Celtic will probably have trouble getting out of those groups.

Not sure what to make of all the takeover talk. Fortunately it seems there's no question of ousting Wenger, so it shouldn't destabilise the team too much. I hope it doesn't turn into a distracting off-field battle, though.

EDIT: Xabi Alonso, scoring from 40+ yards? *yawn*
