1.Davies plans to end Arsenal’s title bid
2.Adebayor need a breather

Sagna is injured for three weeks after he injured his ankle during last week’s game against Chelsea.

No players return from injury,and all other players except Sagna will be able to feature like usual for this game.Adebayor could be rested as Wenger quoted that he needs a breather.

I still can’t find a reason why we drop points against Wigan and Aston Villa.We played a style that could be deadly even for a team like Manchester United,but yet we only scored at last minute of the game.

The problem now,is our players are somehow,physically challenged.Most of our defenders are short and thin,which is a disadvantage when we handles big-sized players such as Harewood etc.

In EPL,we need to play more aggressively,especially in this game when our opponents would be very physical to us.We should be more dynamic,and try our best to produce more counter-attack.But if we are behind,playing counter-attack seems stupid for us.

Our strikers are slow,because they sometimes need to pass the ball to wingers first before the wingers crosses the ball to them.And our attack is not smooth enough,for example our players will suddenly stop just before penalty box,and wait for strikers,or midfielder to take their ball.The problem is all defender will be back to defend against us,and I don’t think this is a good counter-attack.

Somewhat I think Adebayor is too thin and I think he’s more suitable for a header cross.Persie on the other hand will be better for ground cross.

We can only dream for the title,and it depends on M.United and Chelsea to realise our dreams.Even Wenger does not dream for the title anymore,and prefer to strengthen his team.Perhaps we can plan for the next season.

Birmingham:McFadden 29,90+4(pen)
Arsenal:Walcott 49,55

Match report

1st half

We were shocked by a violent challenge on Eduardo,and the game had to be “stopped” for about 8-9 minutes.Taylor wad awarded straight red card though.

We could be probably distracted by this incident.We controlled the game but we lacked sharpness and some creativity.As expected,Blues played their entire players to defend against us.

When you fail to score,we get punished.And this time,there in no exception.McFadden skillfully curved the free-kick to make Birmingham fans thrilled with 1-0 lead against EPL leader.

Then,we still control the game and had lots of attacks but it seems Birmingham who had quality of attack.

So it could be summed up that,we lacked creativity to score.Our attack weren’t sharp enough.

2nd half

In second-half,we still dominated the game.

Our equaliser came when Ade’s header made the goalkeeper lost the ball and Walcott scored his ever first EPL goal in this game.This made me thinking about Adebayor’s first goal,which were also scored at St Andrews stadium.

5 minutes later,Walcott again took advantage that there weren’t many Blues defender surrounding him and he scored again to make us lead by 1-0.

There were lots of chances where we could score but somehow,we lacked confidence and cold-blooded touch in this game.

Again,when you fail to score,you get punished.

At 92nd minute,Clichy careless mistake again costs us two points in EPL.Birmingham were awarded a penalty kick from Clichy’s challenge at penalty box.

McFadden again just easily denied our 3 points at their home with his penalty score.

Comments on this game

What to say?I’m of course frustrated with this result.Hopefully it would teach us to be more cold-blooded in our play.

If Adebayor was more sharp and focussed in his finishing,no one will give a look on that penalty kick.We didn’t score when we could,we think that 2-1 win is enough for us.

In fact,there were many times when we just let go our chance with finishing half-heartedly.And I hope we know to score when we can to.

Everton 1-4 Arsenal

• Everton:Cahill 20
• Arsenal:Eduardo 47,58 Adebayor 80 Rosicky 94

Arsenal didn’t play their best actually,but I’m very glad that Everton made such a lot of decisive mistake,and of course the fact that we could exploit them profitably makes us top of the table again.

Everton played a good game actually,they have a quite strong midfield and strikers but their defense was absolutely rubbish.Same goes to them when playing Devils last weekend when they lost to a penalty that was caused by a silly tackle.

First half

It’s nothing wrong with our team until the 10th minute onwards.We started to lose out possession and that’s where the nightmare started for Gooners.

Jim Cahill’s goal at 20th minute was resulted from placement of Bendtner.If he wasn’t there then the ball will went wide.

Then,it’s downhill for us.We passed the ball weakly,our ball control was bad and we can’t harm them.Everton was good in air so they could easily gain possession from a long ball pass.

Second-half

It’s Everton fans nightmare now.Eduardo equalized just 2 minutes after 2nd-half started.Clichy’s long ball had succeeded to fall on Eduardo’s control.No doubt,he is the best finisher in our squad.I don’t sure whether Ade could score in such circumstances.

At 58th minute,he made it again.It was about the same goal except it was not from a long ball.

Bendtner was out at 73rd minute following a harsh tackle to Johnson.

About the red card awarded to Bendtner,I think I will accept it since it’s not a red-card anyway;it was the second yellow card that sends him out.Why Bendtner made such a silly tackle?If he didn’t made it we could play him and Adebayor together,that’s the best time to do such an experiment.

Another stupid mistake by Everton’s defender made Ade score finally.It’s hard to miss such a chance.I think David Moyes should look back on their team’s mistake now.

Rosicky took advantage again from Everton’s demoralized play to score Gunners 4th goal in this game.

Arsenal must forget their last game and head on to Goodison Park to beat Everton in order to maintain the hope for EPL title.

In our last game,I think we had played with a team with more closed game but I think Toffees would not play like that.While it’s good for our playing style,their counter-attacks are always deadly for their opponent’s.A team that could make Devils struggling in Old Trafford and only lost on penalty is a tough team of course.

I came across an article;
Wenger slams Portsmouth defending tactics

Yes,their tactics was somehow unethical,but it’s legal and we should blame ourselves for the game.As we progress more,our EPL opponent could be just want to draw against us and not lose the game.It’s better than playing their usual game and lose 4-0 to us.

The key to win the title,aside from consistency;and the key for consistency is flexibility in our style of playing.

Technical details of the game

But I could not understand why Wenger refused to play 4-4-2,and always use 4-4-1-1.We know that Ade sucks being alone as strikers.

We should be more flexible with our opponent.If Everton plays an open game,then we could play our usual passing but if they play closed game like Portsmouth did,we could try to shoot more and play more to Liverpool’s style.

We can try too the combination of Ade and Bendtner.I think it’s better like that.

Players

Persie is out for this game and I’m not sure of Gallas’s presence in this game.Other than this two players,we could play our other players as usual.

Gunners stumbled to 2nd place after facing a colorless draw at Fratton Park.

It’s pretty hard to play our usual football against a very closed-team;a team that tend to defend more than attack.It can be concluded that Portsmouth just want a draw from this game,and they got it.

I think we should shoot more in this game,rather than playing our usual passing game because just as I said before,it’s very hard to play Wengerball against a solid-defending team.Yes,I mentioned before in my previous post that Pompey’s defense isn’t strong enough,but the problem is their main task today is just to defend,so it isn’t that hard anyway to defend with 11 players,against 10 opponent’s player.

SO the main problem is actually we didn’t play a freer game this time,most of our passes were blocked efficiently by ex-Gunners Campbell and other defenders.Again,we were slightly “outphysicalled” by our opponent’s defender.

We did let them have some counter-attack to open up the game,but they still scared to counter-attack more bravely.

Now it’s time for us to trail Devils now.

We did had some chances through,but not a lot as usual.
