Goalkeeper Manuel Almunia has said that it seemed like the team was in a training match, after the 5-2 demolition of Fenerbahce.
Almunia himself showed that he's stepped up to the mantle of being Arsenal's number one goalkeeper with some classy defending, but he will be worried with the ease at times the defence was penetrated.
But the Gunners had scored 2 goals in the first fifteen minutes, and were three goals to the good before the end of the first half.
Almunia said: "It was a crazy game. There were so many chances it seemed like a training match.
"The game started well for me with that save. It made things easier. After that I found the game more comfortable.
"Personally I had a strange feeling about the match, everything seemed much easier than normal in the Champions League.
"But it must have been a great game for the supporters of both clubs."
