- Wow. Best Arsenal game I've seen in quite awhile. Great fight back by the lads. And they actually created chances, for all the passing and possession.
- Don't talk to me about the defensive mistakes on the goals. I just want to savor this one.
- Fabianski still makes me nervous. If it weren't for David De Gea, he'd be the most nervous looking keeper in the Premier League.
- Coquelin continues to impress. He's a tough competitor, good with the ball at his feet. Let's see more of him.
- Rosicky looked lively. Turned back the clock to his pre-crockpot days.
- Walcott. Meh. Full credit, though. Arshavin would've turned that shot high and wide.
- Sagna's back! It was great to see Bacary get back on the field. Even better still, to see an injured fullback return.
- Ox. Rocks. Arsene hasn't lost his eye for spotting rare talent (whether he's nearly ruthless enough to clear out the deadwood and busts is another matter). The key to subbing him out, it seems is to do at very late, with a lead, and with Thierry Henry.
- Come on, Alex McL. Just because you're an ugly old mug, doesn't mean RVP committed a crime.
Nine thoughts on footy and other matters. The concept, thin as it is, is based on the Full 90 concept, but informed by statistical research that indicates that no one in their right mind is going to read a list of 90 items long, let alone write. Nine, though, yeah that's the stuff.
