Other than the games played in preseason, this certainly shapes up to be the least important outing
of the season. We're heading to Greece to take on Olympiakos in the final match of the group stages
of the Champions League. But fortunately for us, we already have first place wrapped up, so there's
no need to wear out our main players in this one.
By 1970's Gooner I must say that I raised more than one eyebrow when the team sheet was announced
in Athens last Tuesday. What on earth did possess Wenger to name Vermaelen AND Santos in the
starting eleven when the game was absolutely irrelevant to where Arsenal would finish in the
group?. Santos was the only available left back we had at the club!
