Whew, that was close.

Three points for us.

Yes, sir re Bob.

We were not at our best but this just shows how tough the guys are. Arsenal kept at it until we found a way to win.

This is what championship teams do.

What a way to start off the match between Arsenal and Porto. Disaster right from the outset almost killed us.

Give me a heart attack why don’t you Arsenal.

Porto drew first blood in one of the dumbest plays I have ever seen. Gunners keeper Lukasz Fabianski should be shot and quartered for giving up such a cheap goal. Porto sniper Varala fired one of the easiest balls to defend. Jeez, my grandmother could have stopped that shot. She has been dead since 1976.

No, Fabianski lets the ball roll right off his hands and into the back of the next. El dumbo dude.  At the 11^th minute Porto is up 1-0.

I don’t how this goal will be recorded. It could be an own goal by Fabianski or a goal for Varala. We will find out later. However, you score it Fabianski needs his head and hands examined.

I thought here we go again. Not so, fast bucko. Arsenal gets a reprieve.

Fabregas fired a great corner kick near the left post. Rosicky was camped near the right post. The ball went through the goal crease off a deflection. Rosicky one timed the header pass to mate Sol Campbell. Buda Bing. Buda boom. Campbell used his noggin to ram this sucker into the back of the net in the 18^th minute.

We are tied at one all.

Thank God for small favors.

We are at half. It is one all.

Arsene Wenger needs to crawl up Fabianski’s butt and tear him a new one for letting in such a cheap goal.

The guys didn’t quit. We fought back to get the equalizer.

This is huge.

This shows what we are made of.

Arsenal has done it again. Another stupid play by the Gunners has given Porto a 2-1 lead in the 51^st minute. Sol Campbell makes a back pass to keeper Fabianski. This is a no-no. Fabianski flips on the ground. Fabianski turns his back on the play. Porto quickly takes the free kick. Radamel Falco slips the ball into the back of the open net.

Sol Campbell and Fabianski need to shot at dusk for dumb play.

Now do you see what I mean when I say Arsenal is like my loveable Philadelphia Eagles. We find a way to screw up a wet dream.

Way to snatch defeat from jaws of victory guys.

The pain is finally over. Porto wins 2-1 over Arsenal.

It could be worse. It could have been 3-0 or 3-1.

The good news is that we scored the all-important away goal.

The bad news is this. We really need to work on the comedy of errors we committed on the defensive end of the pitch.

The Gunners made the Keystone Cops look a ballet company.

The Gunners Rocky Horror Picture Show will continue at Emirates in two weeks.

Let’s hope we can put the screws down on the defense.

Two goals are all we need and it is on to the quarterfinals.

Please what ever you do don’t, and I repeat don’t give up a goal at home.

I know, as soon as I say it will happen.
