After a while of no action due to Dell customer service nightmares things are rolling again!


I managed to catch some of the game the other day. Admittedly I was sat in front of the TV all night but ITV caused me to miss Ade scoring the best goal he will ever score. That was frustrating but not as bad as the first half. In Wengers pre-match chat he said about the last game in Villarreal and the team being so nervous about the outcome that they played within themselves. I think this was the case last night.


There was a twitter about us signing Senna in the summer and with a shot like that it would be nice but to be honest, we don't need him now.

There are some brighter signs for the club at the moment, the most obvious is the return of Rosicky being the end of our season long injury problem.

Gallas didn't look good when he went off and coming back on could have done further damage. There is a real danger that given all the crap before Christmas he could well be off and has played his last ever game for the club. Six months ago this would have been a serious problem but Djourou looked very steady for the remainder of the match.

Almunia is set to be out for a couple of weeks but in reality will only miss a couple of matches. I think this is almost good for things. Obviously I like Almunia and think hes a really nice guy (rare for footballers) but goalkeeping is a funny business and it is important for a shakeup every so often. Fabianski has been pretty tidy in nets and a couple of important games with clean sheets will increase the competition for the 1 shirt.
