Arsenal edge closer to the title.

On the whole it has been a positive weekend for The Arsenal. Even if we were able to beat Sunderland, United might have beaten Liverpool and we would be 4 points behind instead of 3. In any case we still have to beat United when they visit us at the Emirates.

RvP – Remarkable, Virtuosic, a Premium striker.

This morning I’m thinking, damn that pass from Song to Cesc for the penalty was lush, Arshavin still better than Rooney, man we create lots of chances, if we were to play Barça today we’d spank those fuckers.

Wengerball 0 – 0 Catenaccio, a clash of ideologies.

A battle between an obdurate defence and a potent offence, a clash of ideology playing to win versus playing not to lose, a confrontation between lavish spending and frugal economics.

Arsenal still on form.

Both sides were shit, both contrived to give away the ball as often as they could without it looking too unprofessional, United simply edged it and 1-0 was no more or less than they deserved. Truth be told if that was between two mid-table teams we would be lamenting the shoddy football displayed last night.

Arsenal eases past Partizan to next round.

Thoughts turn to the round of sixteen, where there is a 50 percent chance of a meeting with one of the Spanish giants. The question now is whether it’s better to meet them earlier on in the draw or avoid as much as you can?

Top of the league counts for nothing.

A post made up entirely of comments from cup half empty Arsenal fans around the interwebs and on the airwaves.

Win at Villa Park banishies memories of the previous week.

Good result for us, at a ground where both United and Chelsea dropped points. We can’t underestimate how much holding on for the win after a disastrous week is good for the confidence.

Not quite the fightback we were hoping for.

We were shit, but I don’t believe we are a shit team, a win at home against Partizan will be enough to qualify for the next round. If Braga can get some confidence from their victory and go on beat Shakhtar then we could still win the group.
