Arsenal For Fans – Gunn them down

Arsenal will face another 2005-2006 Premiership Champion Chelsea in Stamford Bridge.

Arsenal’s record against Chelsea since the takeover by a Russian billionaire had been not so good.To make the matter worse,Theirry Henry and Tomas Rosicky were injured and Kolo Toure were suspended.However,Djourou will be fit to replace Gallas.

But incase Arsenal DROP POINTS(which means if Arsenal draw or lose to Chelsea)in this game,Arsenal could drop up to 7-9th place.(see the table below)

Here’s the list of fixtures involving the teams in the table above

Fortunately Portmouth will Everton,which means one of the team or both teams could drop points this weekend.

I hope this could encourage Arsenal to win this game,like how Arsenal beat Manchester United in Old Trafford although Arsenal drew two match and lost one match before that.

And we will see who is Arsenal going to face in UEFA Champions League last 16.

Porto drew 0-0 with Arsenal in UEFA Champions League Match Day 6.However,this is enough to send both teams to knock-out stage.

Although Porto dominated the game with a lot of dangerous attacks,but Arsenal were lucky enough not to being conceded and 2 Porto’s shot which hit the post.

In second-half,Arsenal had better control in the game compared to first-half.But when it arrives to 80th minute,both teams seems to ‘play safe’ with no attacks on both teams.I think it’s just like a training session for both teams.

Actually,it doesn’t matter who wins the game,both will qualify as Hamburg come back from a defeat to beat CSKA 3-2 at the end.

Manchester United on the other hand also comes back from a defeat to take revenge on Benfica with 3-1 win in Old Trafford.

Here’s the all Champions League Match Day 6 result;

Group
A Chelsea 2-0 Levski
A Barcelona 2-0 Bremen
B Sporting 1-3 Spartak Moskva

Arsenal will travel to Portugal to fight for a place to UEFA Champions League knock-out stage.

Here’s the fixtures of Matchday 6 for Group G;

Porto vs. Arsenal
Hamburg vs. CSKA Moskva

And here’s the current Group G table;

Group Playedd Pts
ARS 5 10
POR 5 10
CSK 5 8
HSV 5 0

This group is the most complicated group as Arsenal,FC Porto and CSKA Moskva has chance to qualify to knock-out stage.Arsenal must at least draw with Porto to ensure qualification to next round.CSKA on the other hand must beat Hamburg to have chance to qualify.

The absence of Theirry Henry and Tomas Rosicky till next year really worried us as both of them is very important for Arsenal.Therefore we will have to rely to Adebayor and Persie to beat Porto this time.For your information,Porto were never lost so far to any English club,they had win four and drawn four out of their 8 match against English club so far.

Fortunately,Arsenal win against North London derby Tottenham Hotspur gave back some confidence after lost back-to-bak to Bolton and Fulham.

I hope Hamburg could at at least one point from this match against CSKA and Arsenal could at least draw with Porto this game.

On the other hand,Manchester United will have to take revenge as they will face another Portugal team Benfica who break the Devils hope to qualify to knock-out stage during the 2005-2006 season.If the Devils lose again this time,Manchester United will be heavily dependant to Premiership to gain some Title this season.

The above shows the last week Premiership results.Arsenal back on track after beating Tottenham 3-0(For full report click here) Manchester United maintain their form after beating Middlesbrough 2-1 in Riverside Stadium.Portsmouth drew with Aston Villa which means it benefit the Gunners by Gunners regained their third place.Liverpool break their away goal drought handsomely after thrashing Wigan 4-0.Chelsea were not playing this week,so Chelsea’s point difference with the Devils were increased by 6 points although Chelsea have one game in hand currently.

Here’s the current Premiership table;

Arsenal’s third place is quite vulnerable because there are three teams Portsmouth,Liverpool and Reading which is have same point with Arsenal and another three teams Everton,Aston Villas and Bolton Wanderers which have only one point behind Arsenal.To maintain their third place next week,Arsenal must perform extraordinary to beat 2005-2006 champions Chelsea.But the most important is the away match against FC Porto which Arsenal must at least draw to ensure qualification to UEFA Champions League knock-out stage.

Arsenal get back their form after beating Tottenham 3-0 at home

Adebayor scored from his sudden storming attack and there is no defender,only the goalkeeper defended Adebayor and of course Adebayor did the finishing into the net.

3 minutes before half-time break,Rosicky were fouled in penalty box and Gilberto scored the second goal from penalty-kick.At 72th minute,Gilberto wrecked Spurs hope when he once again scored a penalty kick.

Despite their enourmous win,2 of Arsenal’s goal in this match is scored by penalty.However,Arsenal deserved to win by their control of the game and many dangerous attacks.

I think this win is very important for Arsenal to face Porto this Wednesday,which could decide whether Arsenal could qualify to knock-out stage or not.And of course this include another London derby clash in Stamford Bridge next week.
