Good, efficient performance from Arsenal. They HAD to win this, Man U, Chelsea, and Liverpool have all won their games before Arsenal played, so they had to win to keep up.
Shame that Gilberto was sent off. I hope the FA looks at the incident, cause he didnt deserve a red card. He was hit twice, before hitting Savage on the leg, Savage overreacted and fell down, as if he was shot on the leg, not flicked by Gilberto. Now he is out of the Manchester game next week :(. Huge blow to Arsenal! Gilberto has been colossal to Arsenal recently. The sending off came early in the game, after 12 mins to be exact. And judging from the title of this post, you can say that Blackburn were outclassed by ten men.
It was a tough game, it rained heavily throughout the game. It was a tough one. Blackburn have done extremely well recently, thats after the 6-2 loss they had at the Emirates Stadium. They went on to win all their matches after that one.
Seems like we are through that period. The one where we loose to lower level but physical teams, away that home that is. So it was good to see Arsenal winning a game that many people would think they wont have won.
Goals came from Toure after connecting to a Henry free kick in the first half. 2nd goal came from Henry, and what a goal it was. Cant be described really, only way to describe it is to see it.
goals from Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Man U games coming later.





great game for arsenal, amazing goal b henry, gilberto shouldnt be sent off but according to wenger they will not appeal the ban cause the referee saw it or something like that.
its a shame though, because i dont know who has the potential to replace him for the Man U game. flamini maybe…
ur such a GUY… boys and their sports :p
HAnman,
flamini has done well this season, but I dont think he can replace gilberto ” our silent soldier” as they call him.
Abou Diaby did well last season before the injury, he got a few minutes against liverpool, but he is not fit to play (or maybe wenger is making us think that :P)
we need to beat united and liverpool to beat chelsea, its gonna be an interesting weekend, i cant wait!
Swair,
thanks for the compliment
