Gunners vs Blues....and....City vs Toffees..

first off..i watched the man city game becoz i tot that the newcastle game was at the same time..unfortunately..it wasnt..but luckily i got to catch another good game...man city have been a great team this season..and all to their good home form..only concedin 3 goals at home..too bad tho..cuz their defence seemed in shambles as defensive errors were the cause of the goals..but sub etuhu made a good contribution..making runs and causin defence...nuff said....

NOW...TO THE HIGHLY WAITED FOR GAME>>>>

ARsENAL VS CHeLSEA

initially i tot that both teams would come out undermanned..with fabs, hleb, flamini missing with injury for arsenal..and essien, drogba, and malouda out for chelsea.but arsenal pushed the missing trio in midfield back in time for the game..but chelsea..well..they din..hahaha..too bad..but seriously..all chelsea are without drogba are a couple of players that cant score..(except lampard..hes good ill give him that)..

the match started off as any london derby would be..RASH!..and hard..crunching tackles here and there...fabs reli couldnt get his game together and it wa chelsea that shocked the home fans..but almunia was equal to the attack..he had a great game and managed to keep chelsea at bay..him combined with gallas and toure who were absolutely great..limited chelsea to only glancing shots..but it was chelsea's most consistent player that made a vital mistake..PETR CECH..he mishandled the corner..and gallas scored on his return...chelsea were stunned...

2nd half..started the same as the first did..full of tackles...and fouls...and some one paid the price...john terry was stretchered off with a foot injury...and ben haim came on..fresh hope for arsenal...arsenal tried to hit chelsea on the counter attack..and grant brought kalou on to replace makelele..that..combined with gilberto's inclusion..gave fabs much more space to run in..persie came on to great effect..takin part in 2 ruled off goals..one which was an offside.(totally bogus)..and a foul(mayb..)...in the final 10 minutes..chelsea reli tried..but almunia capped off a great performance with a clean sheet..giving arsene wenger his first win against chelsea...

but before it ended..literally the last kick of the match was by fabs to cashley cole..hahaha..he got him near his groin..and cole quickly grabbed him by the throat..it was intrestin..there hasnt been a single game between this two teams that doesnt have arguments, hard tackles, and controversy..thats a london derby i guess..credit to arsenal..who fought hard..dug in and got the result...

man of the match: Manuel Almunia...on a day when many would think fabs would shine..he was caught out by makelele and mikel..giving him no room to manuever..but almunia made saves that kept arsenal their lead..esp in the last 10 minutes...

HOPE UR HAPPY TUBBY!!HAHAHHAHA
