I hate it when Arsenal lose even in friendly games.

This was an intelligently arranged fixture, obviously organised a while ago in the knowledge that we not only had the first game of the season to follow but the probably more important Champions League qualifier three days later. We drew Celtic but it could just as easily have been Athletico Madrid and that would have been playing them on a day when they meant business rather than on the training game mode that we witnessed during the Emirates Cup.
