S.o.S

i know there's been alot of football posts likely and it's about to continue i guess as the season heads into the climax. i was just about to write about how pleased that arsenal came away with a 2-1 away victory after a walcot brace but clichy's latest blunder made it 2-2.

the game started off brightly but after just 2 minutes, eduardo had hit by a rough challenge by taylor who was red carded. reports confirmed eduardo broke his ankle after the game was stopped for 8 minutes to carry him off and is likely to miss the season. another injury..

thinks got worse as arsenal fail to capitalize on birmingham's 10 man and mcfadden got an early goal through a free kick and it continued on like that for the rest of the first half. i was worried cause arsenal just looked so jaded but arsenal came back brightly in the 2nd half and soon after walcot scored his premiership goal off an adebayor challenge. arsenal were hitting form and hleb was running the show and actually taking a couple of shots. a few moments later, walcot ran through the defence to get his brace.

arsenal tried and should have gotten a third but adebayor was selfish on his run up and should have passed to bentdner who was free instead of shooting. hleb should have shot so near to the goal instead of trying to find a pass. but we got through till 92 minutes when a lapse of concentration by clichy made him foul panarby in the penalty box. ref said penalty, i said other wise. he got the ball first and the penalty claim was really really harsh in my opinion. mcfadden stepped up on banged it passed alumnia. gallas was furious at the 2 points lost and was actually crying on the pitch. i feel for him. we shouldnt be losing the points now. and hopefully this won't come back to haunt us.

now, we're in deep deep shit. with eduardo injured and probably missing the rest of the season, we're lacking players. the injury list is now toure,van persie,rosicky,eduardo,diaby and adebayor, senderos and a few others don't look 100% fit. we're really lacking options of strikers at the moment. out n out strikers are only ade and bentdner at the moment and i don't like pairing them up as both offer much of the same thing. walcot could step up but we're lacking people on the wings as the idiot eboue got himself suspended. it's time that we need rvp to come back and step up. i've been waiting 5 months for you and you better come back soon. this is an sos from me and probably from almost any other gooner for u to return!

i'll try to do my denmark postings, here's a pic of tivolli, denmark's themepark. too bad it was closed when we were there.
