Wenger complains about fixture schedule

December 17th, 2009

Source:Arsenal.com

“They organise midweek games in a week where you have the Europa League already. That means you know that some teams will not play. Next week is a free week. There is no Europe.

“Some teams do not play at all but we play Sunday and Wednesday away then we must play Saturday against Hull, who have not played the whole week. It is the same for Burnley.

“You should organise fixtures on a day when you know teams are capable to play fixtures.”

If the game is fair to you,it is most probably that the game is unfair to your rivals.Chelsea also played 2-3 games a week,so do Man. United.There’s no need to complain about such a small detail.I don’t think Wenger will complain if we beat Burnley.Burnley didn’t complain when their next rival,Wolves rest 10 players during the game against Man. United.Don’t a bad whinner,be a good winner please!!!

What we need to do now is to concentrate on our next game against Hull.

Burnley 1-1 Arsenal

December 17th, 2009

Gunners’ title race hope took a dip as Burnley stole two points from us.It could be three points actually,but we were sort of lucky yesterday.

I did watch the match but not for long(10 minutes) because my live streaming went wrong and I just couldn’t connect to the streaming server.I only watched the first goal of the match which was scored by Fabregas.I’m also quite shocked with the goal and therefore I was emotionless about the first goal.But that goal did spring my attention to the game.But the live streaming just went wrong just after I really want to concentrate on the game.

But through livescore,I knew Burnley equalized not long(28th minute) after our first goal.I thought there will be more goals to come but when I saw the news today,no goal was scored afterwards.

I’m not sure if we should be happy with this result;we did better than United but a game drawn is two points lost.

Last weekend must be the best weekend for us so far this season;Chelsea drew,Man. United and Spurs lost,and we won against Liverpool in its own turf.But the match against Burnley is an independant match and no matter we won or lost in our last match,we need to give our best in this game as every game is equal;Every BPL game rewards you three points if you win,a point if you draw and none of you lose.

The good news ahead of this match is all the players who played Liverpool last weekend,except Denilson are available for this match.Although Arshavin and Nasri hobbled in Liverpool game,but they are definitely fit for this game.

We should be more careful against crosses and set-piece play as we are weak at these points and Burnley is quite good in crosses and set-piece.I hope no more appalling play in this game;the lads wouldn’t want Wenger to scold the every game right?We can’t drop points in this match;any mishap could cost us the title.

Man United’s 3-0 victory over Wolves looked like it’s rewarded automatically by Wolves itself.Wolves made 10 changes from the team which beat Tottenham last week.Anyway,I don’t think Burnley will do the same,although I hope so.Enjoy the game!!

Match Previews

Gunners is back to title race

December 14th, 2009

Liverpool 1-2 Arsenal

Arshavin’s lightning strike into the edge of the inner posts gave warning to Devils and The Blues that this race is not just a two-horse race,and Villa’s 1-0 win in Old Trafford puts the title race so open and it’s 4 horse race now.

Let’s talk about the game first.Gunners’ performance was appalling in the first-half and the effects of not having a real strikers were really clear.We could still get some possession but we didn’t have the sharpness to create chances and put the ball into the net.Liverpool on the other hand,enjoyed their full-forced players and created a lot of chances.In 13rd minute,Torres almost opened the lead against us when Gerrard crossed the ball into near penalty box.But Torres didn’t finish it well and he just passed the ball safely into Almunia’s hands.

The goal came in 41st minute when Gerrard stroke the ball by free-kick.Almunia volleyed the ball out but it fell into Kuyt’s foot.Gallas tried his best to clear Kuyt’s shot,but Gallas failed and the ball went into the net.

It stayed 1-0 until the first-half break.In the break,Wenger went mad and to the extent he quoted that the players were not fit to wear Arsenal jersey.

And his ranting did produce result.In second-half,it was Arsenal who was in driving seat.I’m not sure it’s Gunners who got better or Liverpool who got worse,but Liverpool’s momentum in first-half was gone.

Things got worse in 50th minute when Johnson’s clearance went straight into the net.Kuyt’s goal in first-half was neutralized by an own goal.From that on,Arsenal pressed on with Liverpool’s poor play.8 minutes later,Arshavin made a stunner;his shot went into edge of the goal post’s inner side and the ball was deflected into the net.That goal put a punishment to Red’s shrinking play.

Aware that they were not trailing,Reds started to put more pressure on Arsenal’s defense.But the same thing which happened to Arsenal happened to Liverpool.They failed to create chances to get the goal.The game went on and no further goals were scored.
