Arsenal looked excellent so far. From TV it looks like Gerrard and Kuyt are drifting everywhere and Arsenal are passing through Mascherano and Alonso.

Reina beaten at his near post for the goal.

Anelka on bench at Chelsea again, who lead.

Come on the Arsenal. Never thought I'd find myself writing that.

Well that's strange, I thought Hyypia only scored against us?!

He also appears to score in European quarter finals. Senderos is such a weak link for Arsenal isn't he.

Just don't give a shit about either of em.

Football is far too painful an experience at the moment for me to get excited about other teams. :hang:
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Not half. We were two in front when he went off.

For some reason they always seem to have one. Senderos is, for me, the new Pascal Cygan.

Their squad depth is the issue isn't it? They're a little short on wide players because Rosicky and have no confidence in Walcott to start so keeps playing Eboue right wing and moving Toure right back because Sagna is injured, meaning Senderos gets a game. For me I'd have Toure and Gallas in the middle, Eboue right back and put young Theo on, that way at least everyone is in something like their natural position. But what do I know? I'd also use some of that £51m profit they made to buy a few more players.

Senderos at fault again, has he ever heard of getting tight?

How typical, when in a position to choose 'pass or glory', Stevie Me takes the latter.
