Greetings of the new day Gooners.
The victory at Elland Road has not quite sunk in yet and we are already staring at the game at Wigan tomorrow. This marks the beginning of our four consecutive matches at home against Wigan, Ipswich, Huddersfield and Everton. If you look at the list, the fixtures definitely look winnable and considering they are at home, anything other than a win will be inexcusable.
On the subject of winning it does seem like the team has finally managed to check the box in their heads which requires them to give their all for the 90 minutes that they take the pitch for. This is evident in the body language of the players and what better demonstration for the cause than by our very own Nasri who we saw sprint back 60 yards to cover defensively. If this Arsenal consistently turns up on the day of the games with this attitude and with a mission to close teams down without giving a rats arse about the reputation they have, you can be rest assured that by the time we face Barcelona we would be as mentally strong as one can be. Lets just hope that we get a string of wins, not draws, WINS under our belt and i bet you my pension that the title is ours for the taking. I still believe that Manu have been really lucky when it's come to their position in the league and this is down to that fact that the teams around them have been inconsistent and loosing games. If you notice Manu has played with nearly the same back five for the better half of the season and somethings gotta give. You just know it !!
The news in the world of Arsenal is as non existent as the conscience of our politicians who seem to be hell bent on trying new ways to plunder this already bankrupt nation. Wenger informed the media that TV5 had an operation on some tendon near his Achilles and it has now been completely removed. He goes on to say that some people do not even have this tendon and this was the reason for the friction with TV5's Achilles. He was operated by a team of specialists in Sweeden and not the placenta inserter who worked on keeping RVP out for 6 months. Though all of this is all hunky dory and i cant wait for TV5 to be back in the red and white, the question i ask our medical team is "Why in God's name does it take you 5 months to figure out the reason for a problem" I do feel that we are at times overly cautious in operating on the player and hence waste time in trying to heal the damn problem through physiotherapy and what not, to finally realize that operating upon the player is the only fucking solution. BLAH ! Damn you medics.
The only silver lining in this saga is that TV5 should be back in 6 weeks pulling on the shirt and ready to battle. That brings me to the issue of our CB. While Djouscienly have been brilliant at the back for us we are a Lee Bowyer away from seriously loosing one of them to an injury. If one of the thugs in the league do not manage to take them away, I'm sure the injury gods have something in store for us. Admit it, it has been a while since they've fucked up our season and I'm sure they must be itching to cast a spell of doom over us. There is also the risk of overplaying the two of them and having them fatigued. We've already played 4 games in 11 days with another 5 games to go in the next 12. Surely the two of them cannot cope with the fixture list that we have and Wenger is surely risking a lot if he doesn't buy a decent CB before the end of the window. Notice the word 'decent CB', that was written knowing that there is no way in hell that Wenger will splash the cash on a world class CB so atleast we should hope for a decent one. But again, given Wenger's previous signings like Sylvestre, i would look decent in the CB position even after I've downed a bottle of the finest rum.
The youth team crashed out of the FA youth cup last night in front of a strong crowd at the Bridge. Stoppage time winner scored by a chap who goes by the name Lalkovic, who incidentally also scored the equalizer. With not much to do from now until the end of the season, could we see Wenger and Bould take the decision to ship some of these lads out on loan to League 1 and League 2 sides.
In some transfer news its reported that Wheater has finally completed his move from Miidlesborough to Bolton in a deal worth 2.3 million quid. Does this signing signal the end of Cahill to Arsenal. I would love to think so, but me thinks Cahill might be lured to the greener pastures at the Bridge alongside John 'I love boinking your wife' Terry.
The legend that is Thierry Henry says in an interview "Winning the league at White Hart Lane was better than winning the Champions League" - LEGEND.
See the difference you Sp*rs retards, while we talk about winning cups you will spend your lives talking about winning a game and qualifying for the CL. JOKE
And on that note I'm out of here. Back tomorrow with a brief preview of the Wigan game and my usual incorrect predictions on the scoreline ;)
