You don’t want your Arab petro-state rivals to have local bragging rights.
Brendan Rodgers finally getting the hang of Europe. Putting the debate between him and Bald Hag to bed @Aertel220
Engels - first Celtic player to score & assist in the same CL match since Larsson in 2001.
Scales & Idah - first time 2 Irish players have scored in the same CL match.

Hamann reckons Engels is the new Kevin De Bruyne.
Some English chap called Jamie Gittens scored twice for Dortmund tonight.
I’ve never heard of him before. Looks a talent.
There’s a CL Match of the Day programme on BBC 1 these days.
Celtic first up with Celtic legend Joe Hart on pundit duty.
He has a lovely crisp strike of a ball too, his technique reminded me a bit of fellow Belgian Philippe Albert
Fun and absolutely pointless fact: the Brest (lol) vs Sturm Graz match tonight is the only one that doesn’t feature either a previous winner or finalist of the European cup
Arsenal just about make that criteria. A shocking record in Europe really given how strong they’ve been domestically for over 25 years
Kinda made the 06 final against the grain. They were past their best.
Put up a serious fight against Barca too

Great to see Brendan rogers career back on the right
Road after the disgraceful he got in Liverpool.
Dangerous at home, less so away.
The fucking cut of Martin Keown here.
Another big win for Lederhosen
Young Boys have been kept apart from Brest in the draw.
There will however be a Brest-Real Madrid game, or a Real-Brest game if you prefer. You’d hope the holders don’t make tits of the Farmers’ league representatives in that one.
Arsenal under lego head are one of the most boring sides in world football.
