It certainly took me a while to update this blog after a bruising weekend watching Arsenal after being a goal up to end with a defeat with arch rivals Man U. The defeat would have been palatable if Arsenal had played badly. But the sheer dominance of the game and yet without any points to show at the end of the game made it all the more frustrating.
The goal by Arshavin was sheer beauty. It was voted goal of the week in UK and showed what an important player he is. I half suspect that he is not fully fit and we have yet to see the best of him.
The Rooney goal was a bit suspect and he seemed to have fallen onto the ground all too easily.
The own goal by Diaby was totally uncalled for. There is no danger and Almuni should have called for the ball.
Then there is the last gasp equaliser which was quite correctly disallowed by the linesman.
And of course the sending off of Arsene which later invited an apology from the Referee Association.
All these add to the high drama if not hard & physical game plan by Man U, who certainly are no where at their peak and no match for Arsenal slick play.
Still there are no points to show after the game and Arsene must have been extremely disappointed.
