After that awesome display from the Gunners at Villa over the weekend and a game that provided the perfect response to our defeat at Dortmund, we are heading into this midweek Capital One Cup fixture on a high.
What a difference a year (or not quite a year) makes. Last August, it was a visit from Aston Villa that seemed to derail our season before it could even leave the station. From there, however, we went on a tidy little run, propelled in part by the signing of Özil and the early-season form of Ramsey and Giroud. Fast-forward to September 2014, and, well, it’s quite a different story.
So here we are. 6 games into the new football season and we are looking towards our first tie of the Champions league proper and another tussle with an old foe; Borussia Dortmund.
You will of course remember last seasons epic encounters with the German Bundesliga side; the awesome Robert Lewandowski stealing in at the Emirates to send “Die Schwarzgelben” home with Group F wide open.
