Old Gooner's thoughts on: Olympiacos vs Arsenal
Well one thing's for sure; Song and Ramsey didn't deserve to be on the losing side. Bartley was also very impressive...pity about that "mistake" which unluckily provided a great pass through a, by then, square defence.
Fabianski was good all night and deserved better as well, as did Fishface. Whilst he added a year or so to the average age, he and Bartley provided a solid core to the defence which was more than a little dodgy on both flanks.
Maybe all of Walcott, Vela and Jack the lad are suffering from lack of serious game time. For sure Walcott's self confidence seems non-existant at the moment...I think maybe he should also go out on loan (Barnet maybe?) to get a few goals/crosses under his belt. At this point in time he really seems a waste of a shirt.
Don't know what happened to Watt that he wasn't on the bench but Sunu looked quite impressive from the little time he was given.
All in all a disappointing result; 'twas a game we could have won or at least drawn and several of the kids will look back on it as an 'if only'.
Gooner for 60 years...

On this day in 1914
1914 - Two goals by Harry King plus others from John Flanagan and Frank Bradshaw gave Arsenal a 4-0 First Division win at Glossop North End, who exited the League in 1915.
