Blackburn - Arsenal Match Thread

">digg: reddit: stumbleupon:GigiCaught it from half of 1st half, not a bad perf re the commitment wise, I liked the fact that they were fighting.
I didnt like how Kos got out runned, he needs still to work that speed.
The goals were great imo, nice ones really.
We looked solid defending, middle and back no?
RvP injury didnt see it but man are we cursed there!! I just hope he can mark football before his early retirement...

But most imoortant we got th 3 pts.

Any chance of rating Martin? or Sairax?LollardAlso noticed we got drawn with Spurs in the Carling Cup. Not a good draw for either team.Arsenal OffsideThat was a big win, and an impressive performance.

Also, sorry I forgot to update with Blackburn's lineup, instead of Blackpool's. Stayed up too late and drank too much last night, and my brain was not working when I was trying to get this posted before heading off to the bar to watch the match.LollardI just noticed that it's the Blackpool lineup posted at the top, and not Blackburn. Not that I know all the names anyway.Darren_VSo proud of Arsenal's commitment to defend today. Blackburn were surprisingly clean, and Arsenal really manned up for this gameLollardTop of the table... for now. Not a bad start for the first 3 games. I'm really curious how the Squizz/Kos battle will end up though.SairaxWooo!!! We emerge victorious from the trenches!!PyroJesus with a football needs to learn how to finishSJGgumbyGetting nervous...DamolaVan Persie injured already... Class made of utter glassRyanJGoallllllllllLollardNice goal there. Big credit for Sagna for creating it.ChrisSeen that we've drawn Spuds away in Carling Cup 3rd round ..SJGgumbyMaybe in the second half we'll have some urgency for those 50/50 balls. If we're able to keep some possession, the chances will be there.

Kos is struggling a bit, but this was always going to be a tough test for him.

How long until we see Rosicky for Arshavin? 70th minute?Kent876Cesc looks a bit out of sorts, his passes aren't on target as they usually are. I love Diaby, but that guy is playing like crap right now, Oh, and Arshavin tooLollardI missed half of the first half. I hope RvP is ok. When I started watching, we had almost all the chances and possession. I must also say that Kos was really to blame on their goal. Gotta stop that run by their winger. Ugh.SairaxKos got smoked but no one was back to help coverSairaxVermaelen playing so high up it's like he's a second striker sometimes!SairaxSomeone needs to patent that Theo goal! Same one ZM said he always gets. That will now be known as a Theo goal :)PeevishLooked like a Henry goal to me :PDarren_VToo many givaways and passing to nobodySairaxWe're not dominating possession like we should
Song's hair is blinding my eyes! One of Eboue's pranks?

3 points pleaseSairaxSagna, Clichy, Theo having good games. Cesc must be seeing Xavi on the pitch cuz I don't know who he's passing to sometimes. RvP made of glass. Blackburn playing really really well.

I want those 3 points.PeevishAnd tell me RvP didnt get injured :(PeevishAh crap didnt realise it was an early kick-off. 1-1 eh? Erm... come on the Arsenal?SJGgumbyNEVERMIND.SJGgumbyWell, I knew coming in this wasn't going to be enjoyable, but still...SairaxGo Arsenal etc etc I need some tea to wake upDarren_VI've got my coffee. Go Gunners!
