Post-match views from the forum:
Yousif Arsenal: “Good professional performance today.
Hopefully, a win against Lens so we can rest a few players in last matchday.”
AberGooner: “Played well there, good bounce back from last few results.
Couple of nice goals and never looked like we would give anything away.”
Sniper Mik: “This group is still quite open. We need to be just as professional against Lens in the next game. Don’t want us needing a result away at PSV.”
