Other than Mannone, I think Arsenal have their strongest 11 out there tonight. I wish we could do the same one day.

Real Madrid just don't look brilliant. Ronaldo definitely having an off day.

I think they had other concerns transfer wise and probably shouldn't have thrown all the money at Modric, can imagine a lot of their fans have been thinking the same as they've not been brilliant in la liga (by their standards)...

Already been said but Dortmund are rather good, how much money have they spent, don't think many of their players are big money signings, might be wrong though

Cheeky bid for Modric in January?

Dortmund are literally dominating Madrid at their own game, absorb the pressure and kill on the counter. Stunning display so far by Dortmund.

Madrid looking shocking. Barcelona they ain't arc!

ITK says we're getting him back for 10m so it's all good!

I just read that after posting, got to be something in it now as I'm good at seeing the future just this morning I woke up late and thought I'd never make it to work on time and guess what!

Modric gone at half time?

Yep, he didn't play bad, but didn't really influence the game. Few passes and tackles but not much more. I'm not sure about him playing with Alonso, think Modric alongside Khedeira (however you spell it) would be boss though.

Mourinho obviously prefers Alonso to Modric.......so can we have him back please.

I was watching the first half and I thought he looked a little nervous. Not terrible or anything but playing within himself. He passed the ball reasonably well but was rather static overall.

I think you are right that Modric playing with Alonso is not a good combination. Maybe a little too similar to form an effective pair.

Watching Charlie Nicholas when Arsenal throw away a 2 goal lead is hilarious.

Think Gundogan's looked really good tonight. However, every time I watch Madrid Di Maria is pretty average, pretty wierd looking and pretty fudging dramatic about everything.
