Everton 1 Arsenal 0
What?
I don't know that I've beent his irritated or angry after watching a football match in a long time. Everton scored in the 13th (or so) minute and Arsenal was unable to secure a response. Hentry was off his game. Reyes, Ljungberg & Pires were anonymous, with the exception of Ljungberg's excellently saved shot in the 12th minute. Fabregas was a joy to watch throughout, but his youthful exuberance let him down in the end and he walked early to the showers after a straight red card. NEVER raise your hand to a fellow player on the pitch, your team or theirs. He knows that, Arsene knows that, EVERYone knows that. There's NO excuse, he deserved his red, he deserves to be fined. Campbell & Senderos were useless and occasionally scary at centre-back leaving the messes for Gilbert & Lauren to clean up. Gilbert, a teen-ager played remarkeably well and in my mind earned his spot on the team with his display today. Certainly a better player with more intelligent decisions than Hleb who replaced him or that idiot Gilberto in the centre. New signing Diaby who came on for Pires with 10 minutes left looks like he will eventually grow into those legs of his and become a solid player in mid-field. Certainly he's not afraid to get stuck-in and chase the ball. But he looked a bit out-of-sorts and out of place. But, what do you expect given only 10 minutes to prove your worth in the mighty Arsenal team.
Bah!
