I didn’t get to see the games yesterday so I won’t venture an appraisal of the team’s performance. Needless to say the result is excellent and according to this report the performance was more up to Arsenal high standard.
Arsene thoughts on the first half
“I felt in the first half West Ham were a few times dangerous, especially on set pieces, we didn’t look at ease.”
on the second half and christmas schedule
“We were quite comfortable in the second half and overall this Christmas period has been absolutely great for us because we had four difficult games and we come out with one draw and three wins. If you add Chelsea – four wins and one draw.”
on the goals
“I still don’t understand how it went in. I feel the first goal was a great finish as well because it looked so natural. When you are… I got a few balls in this central position and I know it’s not as easy as it looked today [laughter]. It looked just chest and then in the back of the net in a fraction of a second, you know? He’s a clinical finisher, Eduardo.”
Transfer window is opened I think at most 2 players will leave between Diarra, Gilberto, and Lehman. Most likely to leave will be Lehman, there’s lot’s of talk about Diarra but I doubt he will leave.
Hopefully Vela will finally be with the team, I like the looks of this guy can’t wait for him to join us.
Thanks for reading, until tomorrow.
