Arsenal vs. Everton

2-1, Premier League, Emirates, 1/2 -11
Arshavin 70,
Koscielny 76

Once again we have come from behind to earn the three points! You just keep getting constant reminders of the fact that every game in the prem nowadays is like a cup final! You just can't afford to drop points now, as United already have five points more than us, so thank god we managed to turn the game around!
Another fact that can get our hopes up is that Arshavin is getting better, I mean, he is actually one of the big reasons to why we won this game, he came on from the bench and made a difference! We could really use his talents now that Nasri is out injured.

We started the game rather slow, but gradually got in the game and dominated more and more, then they get the goal, I have no clue what the ref was up to on this one as Saha were yards offside, and yes Koscielny had a touch on the ball, but that was really all it was, a touch, which means that Saha should have been flagged offside.

But after the goal we just came closer and closer to level the score line, but had to wait for the little Russian playmaker to come on before we could make a real difference.
It was, kinda' obviously, a beautiful pass from Cesc Fabregas that gave Arshavin the opportunity, though it came off the head of a Everton defender, so have no idea if Cesc will get the assist for that one, but on Arshavin went and smashed the ball into the net!
Just some minutes later Koscielny scored the winner, again, with a strong header from a corner, again! Last time he scored he sent us to Wembley, this one kept our title hopes alive!

Injury Update;
-Unfortunately I don't have any good news to give...
-Song was replaced at half-time by Diaby after he picked up an injury, unknown yet but he couldn't walk so not good.
-Nasri's hamstring injury has been estimated to 21 days (three weeks still)
-Walcott picked up a knock from this game, though the estimated time that he will be out is unknown.



(Just saw the highlights now and realize that there is no way Fabregas would get an assist for that,, dammit!)
