Arsenal Blog Its not over untill its over - Arsenal still in with a chance

It has been a busy day which started at 5am in the morning with ManU-Mancity match. Just when it was heading for a tame draw, "Scholes" the old warrior rose above everyone and headed home a winner in the last minute of extra time. What an important goal this could well be for Manchester United. No wonder Fergie has extended Scholes contract by one more year. Its just his presence which makes a difference in the United squad. All the more reason why Arsene needs to do a Fergie and extend Sol Cambells contract after his amazing work against Spurs. From an Arsenal point of view, I was dissapointed that Man city could not hold on as that would have made a perfect day for us.

In another important match for us, for once our neighbours dint dissapoint us.
Spurs carried on from where they had left and did beat Chelsea 2-1 at home. Defoe & Bale did the honours for Spurs and to thier credit Spurs played attacking football from the on set. Everyone knows Spurs & Manchester citys could well determine who would win the league this season. For once in my life I would be supporting cunts from North London when they take on Manchester United next week at Old Trafford.

Todays results showed the significance of our match against Spurs. Had we won, we would have leaped passed ManU and would have levelled with Chelsea. None the less we still have a chance in the league. As always we cant loose any of our matches from now on and at the same time expect Manu & Chelsea to loose.

With Song, Denilson, Fabregas out, manager will have little choice but to rely on Diaby in the midfield. Merida could well be brought in to replace Denilson. Now that we need to win, it wont be a bad idea to play Bandtner upfront and Persie supporting him just behind on the right. Rosicky had a bad game at Spurs however with manager not having any option, he could well be retained in the starting line up.My team for tomorrow would be

Alumnia
Sagna Cambell Silvestre Clichy
Walcott Nasri Diaby Rosicky
Persie
Bendtner

Eboue, Merida, Vela, Eduardo, Fabianski on bench....

Wigan cant be taken lightly at home. They have won against Chelsea and Liverpool this season. They havent beaten Arsenal from the time they have been promoted in 2006.Having said that we all know these stats dont count for anything in football and thats what makes it all the more intresting and exciting.

No matter where we end up at the end of the seasaon, we want our team to finish strong & fight till the last minute. Time and again we have seen, this season has been full of surprises and I personally feel Chelsea can further drop points against Liverpool at Anfield and Stoke at home. Come on Gunners lets put in the last ditch effort.....Gunners Forever.....!!!!!!!
