I would start by saying Happy New Year to all the readers and followers of this blog as this is my first post this year, I'm back and better and promise regular, interesting and juicy stuff this year.
Arsenal took on Blackburn yesterday at the Emirates in a must win encounter to keep them in the running for the fourth and final champions league spot and oh my,what a fantastic win it was. Arsenal was red hot and came with their scoring boots as they made Paul Robinson pick the ball out of his net seven times before the final whistle.
Arsenal looked like the team we once knew and loved, the team that used to put a smile on the faces of its fans and the team that not only creates chances but scores. The hunger and desire to win this match was visible for everyone to see, they only thing we ask and pray for is that they find consistency (something the Gunners have lacked in the last 4yrs)
Van Persie as usual was in the mix of everything good Arsenal did yesterday and thorougly deserved his hat trick. He scored and provided, top top player. Alex Oxlade Chamberlain!!! This dude is going to be world class, he looks like a player with a lil bit of Messi + Bale + C Ronaldo + Rooney. He has a lil bit of all their abilities and he is going to be a beast if he continues like this. Walcott looks to be coming back to form and showed that with his runs and assists yesterday but I am not wooed by that and I know Walcott is the most inconsistent professional soccer player alive, so I'm in support of a RVP, Ox, Gervinho trio to always start.
Was I the only one who noticed how quick and efficient the midfield was without Mr Ramsey? I hope Arsene took note of this and spares us the heartache of watching Ramsey run around the pitch like a Robot without control for 90mins on most matchdays. I have always said that he doesn't deserve to start and he should be locked up somewhere with Arshavin.
Next up is Sunderland, we all know the good work Martin has done there so far and they seem to be on the high with so much confidence and the important thing for Arsenal is to look to create chances and take them. 1-0 or 10-0, the important thing is 3 points.
