Champions League Picks Wednesday 14th September

Not a great day yesterday as the picks went 1-2, although Chelsea's late goal saved me from a terrible day.

Still not sure how the Borussia Dortmund-Arsenal game did not go 'Over' with the amount of chances in the game. It also makes me continue to worry for the Gunners who were extremely lucky to get away from Germany with a point. I fear they are in for a long season if they play as they did, because they gave up far too many chances and it was only rash decisions from the Dortmund forwards that prevented them winning this game, something that will not happen all season.

Chelsea made a number of changes to their team with the game against Manchester United in mind, and that could have cost them in this game although they eventually took control.

Shakhtar was another disappointment for me, especially considering they were 0-1 up at Porto- however, the sending off of one of their players just before half time while the game was balanced at 1-1 meant they could not hold out and took a close loss.
