Arsenal vs. West Bromwich Albion

3-0, Premier League, Emirates, 2011-11-05
van Persie 22,
Vermaelen 39,
Arteta 74

Solid performance from the lads and some brilliant play, both going forward and defending. Everything seemed to be right and it was a comfortable win in the end. Three goals, three points, a clean sheet, no injuries and no bookings. Definitely easy on the eye!

Our very own captain Fantastic, Robin van Persie, continue his goalscoring form and put us ahead when he tapped in the rebound from Theo's shot! But credit goes to Aaron Ramsey for providing a breath-taking pass to the young Englishman!
Not too much later we got to see Vermaelen mark his return from injury with a powerful strike, van Persie provided the assist.

In the second half we continued the domination from the first half, I don't think W.B.A had a single shot on goal during the entire game! Anyway, it was Arteta who got to finish the scoring of the day when Robin pulled the ball back to the Spaniard who finished it brilliantly!

All I can say is that I agree with the new banner that is showcased at the Emirates nowadays, "We don't need Batman, We've got Robin" .

Injury Update;
-Wilshere looks to be back in training in mid-December. Diaby is about three weeks away still and Gibbs might be back after the international break that takes place in the coming week.
