Commentary not English, sorry.

Vela 1-0: http://www.101greatgoals.com/videodisplay/2188185/

Eduardo 2-0: http://www.101greatgoals.com/videodisplay/2188378/

Eboue 3-0: http://www.101greatgoals.com/videodisplay/2188499

Check out the finish from Eduardo, it's far better than it looks first time!

Great performance, with a lot of real positives.

Firstly, WHAT a finish from Eduardo :shock: :hail: Stunning, the guy is a machine!

Superb composure from Vela, and I am absolutely over the moon for Eboue. It's great to see him getting his form and confidence back :Peace:

I'd also like to add that Song is looking fantastic of late. He really ran the show today. Nothing but praise for the lad.

Also great to see Theo back.

I have to say that those were three of the best goals I've ever seen. Eduardo's finish was simply sublime. In off his ankle! How on earth did he do that? Vela's goal was what we've come to expect since his Carling Cup rampage. Didn't Eboue keep his composure well? Eboue's goal was the culmination of a great team move. Song's backheel to set him up was class. 3-0, a great result and no difficulties. Walcott's back, which is a major boost. Now to Roma for a 0-0 draw.
There's David O'Leary and big Willie Young, sending Rixy and Stapleton off on a run

I still can't quite believe Eduardo did that, one of the most unique finishes i have ever seen.

3 cracking goals and a great return for both Dudu and Theo.

Eduardo's goal was top-draw, there aren't many players around who could have scored with such a fine touch as that. His form since his return is making me think that we would have won the PL last season but for his injury. Vela's goal was excellent, lifting the ball over the keeper like that while he was being pressed by a defender, it reminded me of Pires, it seemed like the kind of goal that he would have scored. Good on Eboue for scoring the third. After we beat Hull it's on to Chelsea.

Eduardo's goal was amazing but I still think Vela's finish was better. A volley can often go anywhere but when its on target it looks amazing. Vela nutmegged a defender then ran on, was being pulled back and still had the composure to cheekily lob the keeper.

All i've got to say about the game is superb team performance.

Fabianski, Gibbs, Djourou, Sagna, EBOUE, SONG, Diaby, Vela, Arshavin and EDUARDO played great. Gallas, looked jaded in my opinion but he choose the right game to be jaded in. Hopefully he'll be back for Roma.

Eboue, Song and Eduardo were on another level and won us the game. Vela also, with his creative play.

It was amazing to see 3 creative players upfront and playing well together.

As much as i want to see Eduardo on Wednesday, i think we should go with RvP upfront with Diaby just behind in a 5 man midfield.

Either wway todays performance has made we happy, and i can't wait for Roma.

great performance, but we usually play well with teams that allow us to, that has never been a problem

the problems are against the bus parkers, and that is still to be solved

echo what most have said, eboue played really well, although not always accurate or end product, he is a really effective part of our team and offers something different with his strong running

how unfit did arshavin look lol, when he went in 100% tackles he was solid, but he pussied out of a few, great passer though, cant wait to see him fully fit with a full team out

song did his job perfectly, in general his passing wasnt consistent but thats not what hes in there for, and he did make 2 great assists

eduardo awesome awesome goal, taking the ball out of the air like that is the hardest thing to do in football and he made it look ridiculously easy, was that not his first proper chance as well?

vela what a prospect he is looking, classy finish
