It will not be easy...and the way things are going right now...with so many F***ng hard comes in short period....I think we will beat the sh*t out of them......Torres has been good lately, but he's been like that...cold-hot-cold...so, me hoping we see the cold.
GUNNERS FOR LIFE!!!

The man who probably cost you your title challenge this year...
Even if you win your last seven games got too much to make up. Plus one of those is at Old Trafford. Odds are against now.
Mind your wants, 'cos somebody wants your mind

Them Arsenal boys need a bit of Tottenham fighting spirit. Might of snatched a draw. I predicted this two months ago the wheels coming of Arsenal's campaign. What is it now 5 games without a win. Hardly Championship form.
Lets face it gooners. Your're not good enough.

Yeah gooners are gonners, apparently there's talk that it's all gone pear shaped since Adebayor trimmed his lox, hmm...I suspect some Samson and Delilah business...anyone know who he's dating?

On his game Drogba is too much
You ever heard of the Golden Rule. He who has the gold makes the rules!
He who asks is a fool for five minutes. He who never asks remains a fool for ever.

Yeah Drogba killed us on the scoreboard, BUT I can't say it was him, it was the substitutions made by Grant with the absence of Sagna. I did not think that the kid had so much of an influence on our defense, but a minute after he left the pitch Chelsea scored.
The inclusion of Anelka opened us up in the back as Kalou was not creating the space for Big Perm, but the moment the Birdman hit the pitch, we looked like Newcastle's backline. I can't blame Aluminia for that mess.
It starts with Wenger who should have taken Eboue out on the 60 and included either walcott to keep the tempo up or Gilberto bog the game down and control Perms after we scored. We had Chelsea on their hindfoot until Sagna went down.
I can't really get mad at that one. The break gave Chelsea a chance to regroup and catch their breath. This is where tactics come into play. You had to know that anyteam given the chance and a lengthy break like this was going to regroup and come out fighting.
Taking Ballack off who was doing nothing in containing Cesc and allowing Belletti to come in giving Essien the chance to impose his will in the middle of the pitch was a master stroke.
I was pissed when this game ended because the fact of the matter is that in the last 20 minutes of this game, we got out coached.......

I was watching with Arsenal fans yesterday and they were unanimously agreed on the reason for loss. Adebayor. He simply did not look interested at all. Even in the closing minutes he was walking about head down sighing in exasperation looking like somebody who thinks he's above the situation around him and doesn't deserve his team mates. Kinda reminded me of Henry towards the end of his Arsenal time. While other Arsenal players were buzzing about like bees trying to get back into the game he was just not bothered at all. Lazy idiot.
btw why on earth would Wenger take off Flamini? Him and Hleb were doing the most damage....
btw again, why don't Arsenal pass to Walcott? Do they not trust him? The amount of time he was in acres of space screaming for the ball and ignored was incredible. Every time Arsenal had the ball the predictable thought was to get it to Adebayor and as said he wasn't interested. Walcott came on as a sub and I swear he didn't recieve a pass for a good few minutes..

I don't understand that either. Step for step he has Ashley Cole and can turn the corner on him. Yet they always now seem to go straight up the middle. Now that we have someone with speed and can swing the ball into our tall strikers now it would seem as if this is the obvious route.
For some reason Wenger loves Eboue at right wing, but he is not a winger because he refuses to look for the forwards unless they are playing him in for a shot. Gilberto or Walcott after the first goal I feel would have secured that victory yesterday. Grant got it right on his end.
Wenger does not want to admit it but giving The U a 6 point lead this late in the game is game over. We would have to have Chelsea drop points, and Man U lose twice as well as drop points ourselves to get back in this and with 7 games left, I don't see it.
