I have to admit - with Manchester City away looming on the horizon, I was afraid that this might have been a classic trap game. That is, of course, despite the fact that Ligue 1 is crap and winning it is akin to being the world's tallest midget. Still, away matches in the Champions League are usually tricky no matter who the opposition is, so for Arsenal to come from behind to win the game on the road was a tremendous show of fight and character from the men in red.
In other words, the revival is still well and truly on.
Perhaps with respect to the aforementioned lack of easy matches, there was not nearly as much rotation as there could have been. Andre Santos and Laurent Koscielny again ...
