Awful. Awful Defending from Arsenal. Utter rubbish. Eboue needs to be pushed higher up the pitch and Sagna put on.

I'm not surprised we lost. As soon as i saw the starting line up it made me think a draw would be a great result.

Glad Eduardo scored the winner at least and more class from him not to celebrate.

Poor performance from Arsenal. Too many first team players rested. Eastmond shouldn't have started such a game. Clichy cost us a cheap goal again. His positioning and decision making are letting us down, again, and Wenger needs to look at that position as well as more cover in defense.

I don't see it costing us considering the margins of victory over the two other teams who now look like they are competing for a spot mean that Arsenal will win the head to head if they are level on points but it would have been nice to wrap it up. Away to Braga is not a match I would want to play now though.

England's 2018 World Cup bid has been "significantly harmed" by a newspaper investigation into the bidding process, says a key member of the campaign team.

A member of the Fifa executive committee previously claimed there would be no backlash against England.

But it now seems the Sunday Times probe into two members of the committee has left England with a mountain to climb ahead of the vote on 2 December.

"It has significantly harmed England's bid," a senior member told BBC Sport.

With four weeks to go to the decision, England's bid team has not given up all hope of turning the situation around.

But senior sources say that the prospect of any future media investigations into the conduct of Fifa officials - including a potential Panorama programme on the BBC - could be fatal for their chances.

I think this just shows how morally and ethically bankrupt FIFA are. Just because most of the members are from banana republics doesn't mean they should be holding our free press against us. I thought the bid was supposed to be on which country is best suited to hold a football tournament not which countries won't prove that their grubby little palms need greasing.

This will just give Blatter and the rest of anti-anglo cronies the excuse to pass us for another 2 world cups.

Like a red rag to a bull and here's to the press digging up a bit more dirt on them. It's about time FIFA's past caught up with it.
