 Arsenal played PSV Einhoven yesterday in the first leg of the round of 16 of the UEFA Champion's League. It was the first matchday of this year's knockout stage and there was a lot of hype surrounding the games. Arsenal have remained undefeated thus far in 2007 but they were coming off an anemic 0-0 tie in the FA Cup fourth round against Bolton Wanderers. Tommy Smith, the mainly idiotic ESPN announcer who has ridden his Irish accent to some measure of respectability in this country, actually had a point when he said, "You don't know which Arsenal club will show up. The one that plays well and scores goals or the one that plays well and doesn't."
