    In case you don't know, Arsenal won 2-0 at Milan earlier on....

    Ed Woodhouse: Arsenal fans seem to have got ridiculously absolutist. It's entirely possible to feel both that it's past time for Wenger to leave, and wish him well and be glad for the win tonight. This doesn't make me a "Wenger In" who has "crawled back out from under my rock".

    Well done Arsenal. What happened to the adage that for every negative criticism you should give nine positive encouragements? Real fans may get frustrated but still back their team whatever happens. Wenger has done so much for Arsenal and football in general. Give him the respect he deserves.

    Aritz Aduriz (45+3 mins)

    Controversy. Aritz Aduriz's shot hits Adil Rami on the hand. Jorge Sousa says no penalty - but then the official behind the goal persuades him that it should have been a spot kick.

    Aduriz steps up to take the pen and chips it home.

    And they say those extra officials don't do anything...

    Just when you feel that the players and fans have totally given up, Arsenal actually turn up and play as a functioning team and gave a performance. All the fans have wanted are the players to show some heart and passion. Let's put things into perspective though - it's one game.

    James Norwich

    It's funny how the players get the accolades when Arsenal win, but it's all Mr. Wenger's fault when they lose.

    Amrul Choudhury: Wenger needs to go out on a high. Which means now as they have beaten the 7 times European Cup winners. It is unlikely to get any better than this.

    Kai Odegard: Solid from Arsenal. But as we all know, they can easily lose 3 or 4-0 at home next week.
