Arsenal and Man United pretty comfortable, the latter being as inept in front of goal as ever in their 1-0 win over Astana.

I saw that Gladbach had been thrashed at home by Wolfsberger and thought to myself that Det will be furious. What on earth happened?

Good wins by Standard and Gent.
Comfortable win by Arsenal and even a clean sheet, would you believe it.
Saka looks very promising!

In other news, Karius was at it again. Insane to think Klopp picked him over Mignolet.

Well, that was the third straight game we scored in extra time to gain points and we're now 2nd in the table(trailing Basaksehir by two points) while having won the matchup with Roma.

Next match will be at Wolfsberg. Hopefully it's not another crappy performance against the Austrians.
