Wasn't an easy group they did really well to win that, and our 3rd string would get fucked against nearly all champions league teams.

We're seeded so high because we earned it. Qualified for 16 years in a row, got to the final in 06, semi final in 08, and almost always quarters/semis in between.
And what are you on about with this "reality check" bollox? We slipped to 4th place and lost our 2 best midfielders, got destroyed 8-2 at old trafford and were forced to fight against a very much in form Udinese to even earn our place in the groups.
Then we were put in the same group as Marseille and Dortmund, who before the ball was even kicked were predicted to top the group with us in the Europa league. The hype around Dortmund alone was ridiculous, and all their fans were laughing when they drew us. We shut them up and gave THEM a reality check.
We were 17th place and clawed our way up to 4th, came back from hell.

No matter what we think you have to give Wenger some credit for sorting that mess out at the start of the season and moving Arsenal up the table like he has. They are in some great form and with Vermalen in the defence leading them they are a hell of a lot better. Players to come back as well it wouldnt shock me if they were to get into the top 4 this season.
Hearing rumours from some Gunners fans over here that Henry is training well with them that they might see about getting him for a few games come January while the MLS is finished up. I know this is more than likely a load of bollocks but you just wouldnt rule it out if he is doing well with them in training. Also with Gervinho going off for the African Cup of Nations they need a forward on the short term while he is away.

Believe me - they're going to be apoplectic in January.stony said:They'll win fuck all again this year and might not even scrape 4th. All the Tarquins and Henriettas were getting restless before the start of this season, if they don't get 4th they will be positively apoplectic.

When your team has had the double done over them by Wycombe Wanderers in the third tier of The Football League, then you can use the term, "came back from hell".
