Arsenal vs. Manchester United

1-0, Premier League, Emirates, 1/5 -11
Ramsey 56

That was some performance from the team! For once we actually manage to hold on to a lead, that's certainly not something we're famous for, but in the end it was a great team performance that got us the three points, but it was more to this game than just some points, we needed this for our confidence as that has dropped radically the last month or so.
Earlier in the season this game was spoken of as a title-decider, even though it may not quite have worked out for us in that concern, (though we have a really, really tiny chance on the title still..) we have at least had something to say in the title-race.

We played brilliant football in the first half, and should have been given a penalty when Vidic clearly handled the ball after a cross from Walcott, but nevertheless the score was nil-nil after the first half.

Overall in the second half it was more competitive than the first, but we got that important goal through a great counter-attack from which van Persie managed to find Ramsey in the box and the young Welshman produced a great shot to score his first goal since breaking his leg last year.
United put some pressure on us but we managed well and didn't gave them many chances to score from. A bonus to this was the fact that Szczesny had a faultless game, he surely was brilliant.

So great stuff from the lads to earn us a morale-boosting win ahead of the final three games.

Injury Update;
-Fabregas was injured in training, no news yet as to how bad the injury is, but for now let's just be glad that his replacer managed to win the game for us!
-Nasri didn't return to the pitch for the second half, he picked up some kind of knock in the first half, don't think that it's too serious though.
-Djourou hobbled off in the second half, there's for sure a risk of him missing the rest of the season...
-Vermaelen played for the reserves last Thursday and reportedly had a pretty much faultless game, so hopefully he'll be back for the trip to Stoke next week.
