Aston Villa vs Arsenal

4-2, Premier League, Villa Park, 27/11 -10
Arshavin 38,
Nasri 44,
Chamakh 55,
Wilshere 90

Three vital points, not just to remain in the title race, but as well to get back on track, as we've had a pretty poor week.
And I believe that the goal right at the end to seal the game was Wilshere's first Premier League strike for Arsenal, the first of many to come we hope.

We completely dominated the first half and had tons of chances, but it took quite some time for us to break the deadlock, but when we did, we did it with style, Andrey got some space on the left, and for Villa, that proved fatal, he managed to get a shot away, even though he had three defending players ahead of him, and even though Friedel got a hand on the ball, it wasn't enough.
Just before half time we extended the lead through Nasri, and his volley from a corner went straight for goal! He really has been top this season.

The second half started just as last weekend, only this time just after the score went to 2-1, we made it 3-1! Chamakh managed to squeeze the ball past Friedel after a great pass from Rosicky.
Then Villa got back once again to 3-2, but this time we held on great and in the last minute Wilshere scored a low header, though the thanks goes to Chamakh, who was really unselfish when deciding to pass the ball to Wilshere instead of going for it himself.

Injury Update;
-Cesc looks to be out for at least two weeks & Eboue looks to be out for four weeks
-No other news really, van Persie, Bendtner and Walcott are all working hard to get into top shape.
