An all-too familiar sight.
Yesterday's match in Poland against Legia Warsaw still has me scratching my head wondering,
"What the hell was that?" Some have suggested that yesterday's 6-5 victory over a team that
finished 4th in the Poland encapsulated both the positives and negatives of the current side.
... we also need the kind of youthful exuberance and enthusiasm that was shown by Aaron Ramsey
following his equalizer at Upton Park. The 19-year old ran straight into the 500 traveling Arsenal
supporters followed by Carlos Vela to celebrate his superbly taken equalizer.
Slightly older players like van Persie and Eduardo enthusiastically celebrate goals but not like
Ramsey today or, for that matter, Cesc.
With Chelsea's eminently winnable match with Hull City canceled, along with six other Premier
League matches on Saturday, our match against Everton, in the driving snow, effectively, became our
infamous and long-awaited "game-in-hand." Yesterday's match was another reminder why teams with
games-in-hand should never just count them as three points.
Yes, the main story of Saturday's 6-nil win over Blackpool was Theo's hat-trick. But, what seems
to be lost in the hoopla, is the absolutely sterling performance of Tomas Rosicky. I had been
hoping for one of those "<player> vs. <opposition>" videos to pop up on You Tube and
now it finally has done.
