Official Gooners Thread - A New Hope

[ONeill]

Clichy playing much better but on a yellow already.

[ONeill]

Boring as feck. Very quiet. Sort of glad to not be behind at half time for a change.

Looking like a 0-0 or 1-0 to either.

Nervous game.

[gerry]

Settle for 1 nil. 3 points is 3 points

[ONeill]

Song playing well. Fabregas's passing way off. Arshavin and Bendtner looking lively but too many players going it alone, especially the Russian. Liverpool offering no attacking threat but it just takes one. Almunia actually fisted a corner about 30 yards which is a rarity.

[ONeill]

Away we go. No changes.

[ONeill]

Jeez you panic when Arsenal attack in droves. You know it'll lead to a counter attack. If Babel comes on at 0-0 it could spell trouble.

[ONeill]

Arshavin greedy again, although he has a history in this fixture.

Decent try by Lucas. Arsenal stood off.

[ONeill]

Fabregas has been terrible. Some of Arsenal's passing is chronic. Rosicky too.

[ONeill]

Brilliant tackle from Gallas on Ngog.

Rosicky fecks up in the box. Why doesn't anyone shoot - even from 7 yards?

[ONeill]

Carragher off for Degen.

[ONeill]

Agricultural run from Bender. Almost came off.

[ONeill]

57 mins. You can see why Liverpool have been keeping clean sheets lately. They are working their bollocks off. Kuyt back in his own full back line running like a cat with a mustard hole.

[gerry]

Well do the gunners look like scoring

[ONeill]

64 mins. If Fabregas wasn't Fabregas he'd be subbed. But he's still liable to do something.

Deserved yellow for Bender for diving in box. Worth a try I suppose.

[ONeill]

Oooh close. Rosicky from distance. Tipped over. No sustained pressure though. They haven't really managed a 5-10 minute rally.

Walcott warming up.
