Stupid goal to concede for the whole team.

Nasri looks near enough fully fit, great to see him get 90 mins and a goal

Well, I thought two games with a clean sheet was asking too much.

Anyway, we'll turn over Liege at home and can run out the B team for the last game away.

Diaby is having his best game of the season

can I draw your attention back a few pages when I predicted he would have a big game. Wait for comparison to Vieira tomorrow then he'll play shit for 5 games.

lol I did notice yes.

He's been far from great.. misplaced a lot of passes, caught in possesion a few times.. but overall, had a decent, solid game. Even won a couple headers!!

I would usually stream these midweek games but I bought this online with Sky for a fiver, as I only pay for SS1 for the Sunday Prem games. Excellent quality - I might be back for more of this.

Nah it's ok, I'll just settle for laughing my tits off at Rafa and his fading club. :1970_two_smileys_drinking_beer_together.gif:

Great result for Arsenal. Liverpool on the brink. Great night all round.

Almunia keeps up his record of getting mugged off at the near post.

Good match today from all... especially Diaby. Well done Diaby. Lets see if you stick to your record of 1 good and 5 shit or if you actually change your ways...

Gallas was brilliant today.

Shame we conceded... same old Avi Al and his fear of the near post ghost.

TBH it wasnt really Almunias fault, the defence was non existent, Lens would have scored either way

Just got back from the game.
Nice comprehensive win, great to see Dudu and Rosicky back on the pitch and a fabulous come back from Nasri.
We really do have an embarassment of riches in attack these days.
Even with Walcott and Bendtner out and Rosicky still not fully fit we still have Arshavin, Nasri, RVP, Eduardo and Cesc who just can't stop scoring.

Defended well as a team I thought.

The fourth goal was sublime, everything we enjoy seeing about Arsenal these days. Eduardo's backheel was great and Diaby's finish was excellent. Fabregas looks like he's getting his form from 2007 back.

Still doesn't excuse his p*ss poor distribution from kicks though... I think he gave it away 90% of the time at least.
