Anybody see that play where Eduardo had the ball, got tackled by two defenders, fell down and still managed to control the ball, and as he’s finally getting up they foul him hard. Eduardo’s a fighter. He’s obviously no Henry but the man plays every time he’s in there. I also think Flamini is made of molten lava and Denilson is underrated. Check out the match report, it’s written by professionals. Or if you prefer some really amateur but accurate analysis possibly written by a 6th grader check out post 157 by Grandizer on the Gunnerblog. There’s also some post-match interviews on the Sky Sports website.

Here’s the quote of the match and it comes from the beaten Dennis Rommedahl:

“I don’t see [Arsenal] as a candidate for the title”

Thoughts? No? Well, I have some. It’s going to be tough for us to win the title but we’re definitely a candidate for it. If our strikers stay healthy, our midfielders repeat their performance from last year and our defense gets a little tighter, we’ll be a shoe-in for Champions League play and quite possibly be in contention in April. Rommedahl used to play for Charlton and we’ve kicked their ass so consistently that he probably still has nightmares and just wanted to take a shot at us. Fucker.

I don’t speak a word of Arabic but goals sound better in it:

I was going to post a lot more highlights but both PPMate and Sopcast let me down.

Get the feed. It’s allright.

Senderos was captain today but more importantly he saved Almunia’s ass after he came out and was completely beaten, Senderos’ diving tackle prevented Lazio from going up 1-0. And yes, I’d rather have Sendros as captain than Gallas.

Those third shirts are very, very hideous. Check the match report.

Nicklas Bendtner 1-0 - Tough angle shot.

Goran Pandev 1-1 - Piss poor attempt at a clearance. Almunia should’ve still done better.

Eduardo da Silva 2-1 - Good strong downward header. His first goal at Arsenal.
