Gunners Bye Bye

It was labeled the clash of the TITANS for the match yesterday and true enough, i felt that the match was thoroughly exciting and entertaining. I do agree and empathize with the Gunners cos they played really well and Man United manage to win through sheer guts and stroke of luck. Well at times, you do need luck to win the premiership title besides playing consistently well. Man United took their chances while Arsenal squandered more chances than they took.

Though Wenger persistently declared his team is good enough to win silverware, it is quite evident that the team lack depth and strength. He only have Walcott & Bendtner to change things around. You can see that Adebayor, Hleb and Fabregas are mentally and physically drained as the match wore on. Football at this level require high tempo and 100% concentration. If they have enough rest, i believe they would have score much more and even beat Man United with such irresistible display.

As a United fan, nothing is much precious than a hard-fought victory over our arch-rival. More importantly, its a big march to retaining our premiership title. Chelsea Avram Grant is being bullish again, trying to strike up a physiological war with Fergie. Wait till you win the next 2 games before talking big. Who knows Wigan may just crush your title hopes tonight hehe.
