Sheffield United vs. Arsenal match preview

October 31st, 2007

Gunners will continue their form in Carling Cup round 4 against The Blades.

We need to win this match to gain our confidence before fighting Devils this weekend,or battle for the EPL title.But Carling Cup is important too,at least it’s a sliverware,which we were lacking for recent years.We came close to them last season but Drogba just stopped us.

Arsenal.com has listed out the players tonight.

Referring to link above,some players like Fabregas and Hleb are rested in this game.Arsenal will feature their 2nd team players I think,with some main players such as Gilberto and Dudu.

And recent poor form of Shef. United,I hope we can exploit this fact to progress more in Carling Cup.

Hopefullty Bendtner could score in this game,since he can even score in UCL,why not Carling Cup too.He’s really a good talent actually,and Wenger will polish him to superstar.

Clichy:Arsenal pass the test

October 29th, 2007

Source:Sky Sports

I personally don’t think so,Arsenal has even more extreme test this weekend and I think this match could decide whether Gunners are capable for the EPL title or not.

Another interesting article is about Gallas;
Source:Arsenal.com

I would like to quote some of his comment here;

“I think we showed everybody we can fight for the title,” said Gallas afterwards. “A lot of people wanted to see how Arsenal would react against a big team like Liverpool and I think we reacted very well. Maybe we can be disappointed because we didn’t win.

Err,I think I could agree with him.His words motivates all Gunners and Gooners out here.And that’s why Wenger appointed him as captain.Talking about yesterday’s game,I think Gunners did not attack much,but each attacks carried most chances of goals by we can only converted only one of them.Liverpool on the hand have some attack but their attack was more on counter-attack,especially at 2nd-half.If we didn’t concede the free-kick at 8th minute I’m pretty sure that Gunners could clinch the three points against them.

“We had not lost a game and we had just won 7-0. That can help you a lot. Liverpool were maybe a little bit afraid of us and a lot of top teams will be afraid of us again. We showed we can play well, we can score at any time and we can handle the physical game as well.

About that,I’m not sure whether Liverpool players are scared of Gunners.But I think Arsenal players could handle physical games and this is the main point of Arsenal’s great play in EPL so far.

“For me, it will be very difficult to win the title,” he said. “There are three or four teams who can win the title. Man United will be one of them but you have another team in Chelsea. We have to think about them as well because they won 6-0 against Manchester City at the weekend.”

Yes,I admit that a lot of EPL teams performed very well this season except Tottenham and Bolton which performed exceptionally worst.Not only Arsenal and the other Big Three,teams like Man City and Newcastle as well as Blackburn had made good progress so far in EPL this season.

let’s look forward to Carling Cup game against Sheffield,before setting up our fortress for defense of our EPL standings.

Fab-oulous equalizer keeps Arsenal ahead in the table

October 28th, 2007

Late-minute equalizer by Fabregas 10 minutes before final whistle gets Gunners ahead in the table by just goal scored.

Liverpool seems to do it well with stunning free-kick by Steven Gerrard at 8th minute.I’m absolutely speechless about that goal.

Then,Arsenal had the possession but it seems Liverpool has better quality of possession,and Liverpool’s attack are more dangerous and threatening.Arsenal can’t made any attack to Liverpool’s defense and Reina just caught the ball throughout the game.

In second-half,Liverpool and Gunners stepped up their game and still,Gunners had more possession and Liverpool had more counter-attack.Arsenal really controlled the game on 60th minute onwards.

20 minutes after that,Fabregas finally made headway for Gunners with his strike just enough to pass through Reina’s hand and hits the net.

After that is the most tension time of the game.Both teams started to play even faster and faster .Gunners could get all the 3 points from Liverpool but the ball just stayed to the post and Bendtner just can’s rebound the ball to Reds’s net.

And that’s it,both teams remain unbeaten in EPL,but it seems that Liverpool suffers despite not losing the game.Some of Reds are injured.Fernando Torres and Alonso seems to be injured seriously.I’m glad that no Gunners are injured in this game and this means Gunners are going to defend their top standing with full force.

About the game,I think a draw should be fair to both teams.Both teams performed equally well,and I have to admit that Liverpool have a really good counter-attack and I have to praise our defender to defend well when they needed too.

Liverpool vs. Arsenal match preview

October 27th, 2007

Arsenal will look forward to extend their unbeaten run to 13 games if I’m not mistaken,and end Liverpool’s unbeaten run in EPL.

Arsenal will face Liverpool in their highest confidence,while Liverpool will face Arsenal will lesser confidence I think,since Liverpool lost to Bekistas recently made a mess at Reds campaign in UEFA Champions League,but game is EPL game anyway,but it will affect their confidence a little bit.

And actually this win is important to keep some distance between us and the roaring Devils behind.And of course if Man U drop points against Boro it will be better but it’s very unlikely so we have to depend on ourselves to be ahead of Devils.We can afford to lose to Reds tomorrow,if we win next week against Manchester United.

Some of Gooners had talked about Walcott.Should he become substitute,or full-time player.But I think he should came on 60th minute onwards in the game,as most players will be tired and I think Liverpool defender will suffer like hell to keep pace with Walcott if their attackers did not do well to prevent us from gunning them.

About our game,I think Wenger will play the same player that played on UCL games.But about Liverpool I don’t sure because Benitez always rotate his strategy,and it will be hard to predict that and I guess this is the advantage of using rotation system;people won’t know how’s your performance against them.

About the game that are being played now when I typed this post is Man.U leading with 2-1,Chelsea lead Man. City by 2-0.

Adebayor : Walcott could be better than Henry

October 26th, 2007

Source:ontheminute.com

When I first glanced on the title,I think Walcott has to learn a lot more to be like Henry,but Adebayor commented the same with me,or I commented the same with Ade,but I think the latter will be answer.

Don’t pressure Walcott please,let him develop by himself and slowly.Though he came to Arsenal 18 months ago,his form seems to be floating.But I must admit he affect the game a lot when he is in the game,and with his fast pace to opponent’s net makes defender scared of him.

And I would like to comment on an article at Arsenal.com

First I would like to talk about the conclusion on this article.Although it seems weird to say about conclusion first,but the conclusion came on my mind first so I talk about them first.

The conclusion is don’t believe on speculation.Before Gunners started the season,some people commented that Gunners will finish 15th in EPL table.And yes these are the people who predicted that Arsenal will be the champions this season.

Yes,fans words are lies.I admit that even my words sometimes are not perfect and are too realistic.But the purpose of my word is to motivate our players as well as fans.But about the players,I can motivate them only if they see my blog,which I think will be rare since my blog is not that popular that every Gooners will see them.

I still remember last season’s game when Arsenal are going to play against Man. United which has performed very well in the beginning of the last season’s game.But sadly Gunners performed very badly and yet they can beat Red Devils at Old Trafford,which not many will predict that.

Now we are confronted in the same position again,but we done very well so far in this season and Liverpool are in Gunner’s last season shoe now.Gunners are in Man United shoe on the other hand.I hope Arsenal will win this weekend’s game but I think draw will suffice.
