Clearly, every game is a very tough one for Arsenal on current form. Will the team get its first
League win of 2012? Doesn't seem like it if we look at the manner in which Arsenal have dropped
points in recent games, or the way Blackburn came from behind to win at home earlier this season,
or the fact that Steve Kean is yet to lose against Wenger or Ferguson in the Premiership (2W,
2D)!
I remember reading about Liverpool's issues in front of goal a while ago. This article on the
BBC Football site has some key details, and The Times ran a chart in yesterday's edition talking
about the same thing (behind a paywall, sadly).
The point of all this is that Liverpool are having a terrible time converting their shots to
goals, and at that point were only scoring with 10% of their shots.

but to beat Arsenal? Beautiful football playing Arsenal? Wow. I'd love a result like this over
Liverpool or City, obviously, but after our proper rivals, getting to absolutely thrash Arsenal is
as good as it gets.
Starting off, a half-hearted nod of the head to Man United and an outstretched hand from me in
spite of obvious danger to my personal hygiene. Winners of any football competition deserve the
victory in the end, the League more so than most, and United were the least bad team this season.
The Sun is shining on Fergie and the perch, he should retire now and take over Wrigley's while the
going is good.
Finally some good news on the injury front for Arsenal fans as both Cesc Fabregas and Robin van
Persie are in the Arsenal squad for tomorrow's game against Barcelona.
Van Perise is the big surprise. After getting injured in the Carling Cup final, it was feared

Arsene Wenger has included him in his 19-man squad.
Divide the pitch into three equal zones: offensive, defensive, and midfield. Divide each zone
into a further six sectors, three across the pitch and two deep. Zone one is the left back sat in

POSTED: February 2nd 2011 NewsUpdate LONDON, Feb 02: Wayne Rooney has warned Manchester United to
