This match is our game in hand in present.Should we win,we will promote to second place and close up the point difference between us and Chelsea to a mere 1 point.That should be enough to make Anchelotti sweat..

Players

Obviously Fabregas is not fit for this match so we can forget about him should we stuggle tonight.Arshavin will still play despite some foot injury on him.Hopefully he will be OK.

However,Denilson is available after recovering from back injury.Hopefully he can bring Fabregas’s role(not as captain) well.He has scored some goals recently especially from free-kick.I anticipate another good play from him.

New manager for Bolton

Owen Coyle is set to be Bolton manager.However,I don’t think he can make any change in this game.He’s new to Bolton and will need sometime to settle himself down.

With a new manager in January,Bolton could be set to buy some players in transfer window.

West Ham 1-2 Arsenal,Arsenal plays Stoke away

January 3rd, 2010

We came from behind to make it 2-1 for us.It was unlike our first visit when we screwed up our 2-0 lead and drew 2-2.

I only watched the first-half and obviously disheartened.Obviously our players’ lack of experience brought them nervousness and hence mistakes.Our attack was poor(or Hammers defended well);We couldn’t really cross a proper ball to penalty box and could not make a on-target shots.

However it was the defending mistake which brought Hammers’ first goal.Kovac’s pass to Diamanti was a deadly one;Diamanti stormed into penalty box without proper mark from our lads and next thing was West Ham grabbed 1-0 lead just before first-half.

I can’t really comment on second-half as I sleep early yesterday.But today I woke up and found that Arsenal won 2-1.That’s good.No replays,and the best of all we progressed into fourth round.

I found out from Arsenal.com that Arsenal drew Stoke City for an away game.That’s not bad too although it’s not the best draw we ever hoped.Playing a BPL team away team is not a easy task as we can see from West Ham game.

West Ham vs. Arsenal match preview (FA Cup)

It’s FA Cup action for our first game in 2010.

This fixture reminds me of our game against Hammers last October,when Hammers came from behind to make it 2-2 and stole our two points.I was so frustrated with the result that I immediately called my father to vent out my frustration.I never did that before.

But with our form in fire,this ending is unlikely although it’s still possible.Although FA Cup is the only silverware reachable by Hammers,but to stay in BPL is much more important than FA Cup bling.Same goes to Gunners;Gunners needs to keep the title challenge and keep track of FA Cup.

Belaguered with club finance problem and poor game record in BPL,Zola must utilize his best resource availiable to make most out of his position.Hammers’ 1-1 draw against Chelsea proved that its players too can produce results if they work hard enough and play smart enough.Arsenal on the other hand is on fire right now;Gunners had already picked up 16 points out of possible 18 and had the best form among the title rivals.Gunners is also the current top scorer team so far;Gunners’ cannon had fired 51 goals in 19 games in BPL and

Wenger will play a mixture of first-teamers and second-teamers;Senderos could feature with Gallas or Vermalen should he pass the fitness test.Rosicky too should play to remove rusts from his legs.

This game will be a tough one as Hammers proved this theory games ago.Hammers’ result against Gunners in Upton park is is quite impressive,and even in games we won,we did fight for them the hard way.

No matter how Gunners fare tomorrow,Arsenal game will be always a game to enjoy and Gunners’ style of play will be always the bragging point if Gooners…..
