Now let’s see how young Guns respond

SO MUCH for nothing at stake at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan. Arsenal lost their unbeaten run stretching back to April, top spot in Group H and with it, the benefits for the knockout stage of winning Group H.

That their least convincing defensive display of the season coincided with the return of the mistake-prone Phillipe Senderos may be denying Sevilla the credit they deserve for this victory, but Arsene Wenger will be second-guessing himself for disrupting the back four to such an extent for last night’s game.

Rookies Justin Hoyte and Armand Traore also started in a back four that failed the test of their composure brought about by two quick Seville goals that overturned Eduardo’s early strike.
