		<description>Edurado is like the combination of 3 of Arsenal&#039;s Greatest Strikers.
He&#039;s reluctant to head balls like Henry =D
He has a touch like Bergkamp. ( His touch against Jagielka )
Finishing Like Ian Wright.</description>

		<description>Very good Mike! didn&#039;t like the Pires one though and the Lehman one against Bolton was him taking the piss for their time wasting, and he got booked for it.

I thought the last one was a classic though!</description>

		<description>people forget we didn&#039;t play Derby County, we played a team that has won the last 7 at home on the spin. 

Neville the dirty cheating cunt has been kicking our players all his career, remember Reyes when we went 49 unbeaten? then they get some back from big bollocks and they squeal like the fat bloke in deliverance.

Fuck them, northern monkeys.</description>

		<description>Yes, AW reads these blogs; as on thursday I said this, that on our away games where we seem to have very few chance to score, he should play our natural finishers (I mentioned Bentner &amp; Eduardo to start and Ade coming later). I predicted 2-1 for Arsenal . Almost the same team apart from Diaby for Eboue and Gallas (I thought he wouldn&#039;t be able to play) for Song.
Liverpool, United and Chelsea are the media Darling among the top 4; so we just have to support our team and let them say what they like.
Welcome done Gooners!</description>

		<description>Great blog article.

Agree completely.

This is why Wenger bought Eduardo instead of Torres. We dont need another looks good but needs 15 chances to score kind of striker. We needed a hitman, an assasin to take his oppurtunities in these kinds of tight games.

Similarly with Sagna, who has helped our defence no end. 2 great non flashy important signings. Like Arsene of old when he bought in Lauren, Vieira etc.

Another interesting thing was the ref giving us 5 yellows and them none, despite their tight marking, tackling and afters. The yellow cards to Cesc and Flamini were especially comical. You get the feeling that Everton can do everything but actually stamp on our players, but the moment we get anywhere near them, the ref blows for a foul.

But despite the hostile crowd, the rain, the cold, poor form, going a goal down etc we found an inch of space and scored. And we gave them their own medicine with Flamini and Cesc not taking a backward step. And then showed them the real Arsenal with Rosicky&#039;s goal.

No wonder Moyes has gone crazy. This is like the group of bullies who find out their victim has teeth.</description>

		<description>Everton were good first half, but rubbish second. Can claim they deserved the win, and Everton fans on a footy message board agreed, when they weren&#039;t howling abuse at Cesc

Interesting the change in attitude toward Arsenal and Cesc in particular. Early doors Arsenal were the plucky underdog playing good football, the neutrals choice, and Cesc was the lauded hero of that surprise start. No-one had expected Arsenal to be serious contenders and so their ascendancy wasn&#039;t begrudged as it served to add entertainment to the title race. Now we&#039;re up there and showing no signs of going away (despite what a lot of our own supporters thought after the Portsmouth result) the knives have been steadily coming out. First off the mark was the latent racists crying foul at our lack of English players. Heck even Fergie tried to score points this, which, being a Scot and demonstrably anti-England throughout his career, was truely bizarre. Then with the 70th red card of Wenger&#039;s career, all of a sudden we&#039;re thugs again, cue people wailing about Vieira&#039;s disciplinary record, or calling Bergkamp dirty. Seriously you&#039;re metal if you think that is relevant and if you watch Bergkamp play and come away with an impression of a dirty player then you&#039;re not focusing on the right things.

And the quickly on the heels of that comes the United fans telling us our players are faeries for wearing gloves in the winter (despite the fact their own players do). Fergie believes himself that our title challenge will come unstuck during Northern away-days over the winter and in the first half it looked like he would be right, playing crap while the monsoon hit. Lets face it, our style of play doesn&#039;t suit wintry, waterlogged pitches. We need a summer&#039;s day and a pitch so flat you could play snooker on it to truely shine. But we showed we can mix it too last night, and while those long balls may contradict our accepted ethos, they were a real tonic to my eyes, finally showing we have a plan B when passing the ball 50 times then doing a delicate chip isn&#039;t working.

And finally we&#039;re cheats, despite the fact we were cheated against. Remarkable how little attention is given to Neville&#039;s dive. MOTD didn&#039;t show it, fans are ignoring it. Of course, English players don&#039;t dive. Forgot

So to recap: we&#039;re foreign, we&#039;re thugs, we&#039;re faeries, we&#039;re cheats.......we&#039;re top of the league. Go figure</description>

		<description>quite funny reading about how Moyes thought they deserved more, ho, ho, ho as Santa would say.

Chelsea win against a hapless Newcastle with a goal that was four yards offside and that was ground out, we beat a side that is second in the premiership form sides, and we come from a goal behind to win 4-1 away from home with ten men ands we get called lucky.

At least the bookies have made us 2-1 to win the league.

Mike I hope you enjoyed the bar with the scousers after the game, did they nick your hub caps!</description>

		<description>The final result clearly flattered arsenals performance however even the Everton supporters who surrounded us in si bar in spain admitted the better side won .Great -Especially as they had smug bastard looks after the first goal -You cant fault the tenacity and determination they showed especially after they went down to ten .Geoff maybe Arsene did read the blog re 4 -4 -2 so well done to you !  .The goals may not have been top notch  but hey ho they are after all Fuckin goals .Arsene apparantly said that they were nervous in the first half cos they knew what the united result was .I´d like to think professionals could rise above that .
Top at Xmas Top at New year -looking forward to &quot;the back nine &quot; we certainly live in interesting times
