Evening all, and let's have some Arsenal-PFC Ludogorets Razgrad.

Yes, let's.

Keown says that Sanchez reminds him of Ian Rush, which is not the most obvious comparison, but he means in the way that he harries defenders. But Rush was a finisher, whereas Sanchez is a footballer.

"Martin Keown has friends in every nation."

"I hope so."

That really happened. In the meantime, Arsenal attack with Ozil at inside-left - and he looks for Sanchez at the far post, but just overhits his pass.

Nice from Ludogoets, Wanderson lolloping down the left and guiding a ball in behind Bellerin for Cafu, coming across. He then swivels into a low cross that's not far away from Misidjan, but Conquelin does superbly to interject, running back towards his own goal.

Ludogorets get down their left and pop the ball about nicely, calmly going back to halfway when their probing yields nothing. They look like they know what they're doing.

"Arsene Wenger making four changes, one in each compartment of the team." Martin Keown is just so articulate.

And off we go.

The music's going. It's such a tune. Someone needs to remix it.

And here they come!

Right, let's get the boys on the baize...

Timing, lads. And no surprise whatsoever that a bloke who calls and signs himself "Safehands" wears a three-piece.

For those embarrassingly unversed in all matters Ludogorets, this, on Jonathan Cafu, is good.

So, how do Ludogorets beat Arsenal? Well, like pretty much every team these days, they're pretty nifty on the break, but specifically, if they can look to get in behind Bellerin and Gibbs, they can at least investigate how Arsenal defend their own box, especially with their centre-backs turned to face their own goal.

So, how long do you give Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain before writing him off? On the one hand, he's been injured and never had a run in the team let alone in the same position; on the other, he's never earned a run and isn't very much better than when he signed. What's especially odd about him is the lack of and lack of improvement in his game intelligence, given that he is a bright chap. Big chance for him tonight.

"This group here is a group Arsenal should win no problem," reckons Ian Wright. But really, there's not much between them and PSG; they did very well to escape Paris with a draw, and a home win in the return would be an excellent result - one of their best in Europe in recent years.

I can't take much more of this. "David" is not your pal.

*Barf*

As for Ludogorets, Wanderson, Marcelinho and especially Jonathan Cafu need watching. I'd not be at all surprised if they scored tonight.

I don't think those are especially risky calls from Arsene Wenger. His best, most important players - Mustafi, Koscielny, Cazorla, Ozil and Sanchez are still in - while Oxlade-Chamberlain really needs a game.
