Well we went down fighting against Chelsea. Plenty of good chances to win it though, it's a shame we aren't efficient with our chances. It's also mildly amusing that we couldn't manufacture an Arsenal-esque goal. All of our chances really came off of headed shots. Go figure, eh? Chamakh is a BEAST, but could use a bit more of control. Arshavin is hot and cold, as usual. Wilshere played very well but did not make the impact that the big game required from him. Song is...uh...I'm not sure.
And good god, we need TV5 back RIGHT NOW. Squillaci can't cope with the Drogbas and Rooneys in the EPL. For mid-table he's fine, for the top tier games we can't use him.
Seven points back of Chelsea, ManCity and ManUre are ahead of us, but I am reasonably satisfied with Arsenal's performance today. They played their hearts out (except the defense gave a few head scratchers), and it was a brilliant game to watch. Drogba had an impossibly small window to hit, and he did so. Alex's rocket was ridiculous. Well earned win for the Blues.
WITH THAT SAID...at least we aren't Liverpool. God, how the mighty have fallen. 2-1 to Blackpool? It's a good thing this is their theme song, or they'd all be sobbing right now...
