Wednesday, August 31, 2005. I am not sure. German and England may be two giant footballing country but I don't think both Lehmann and James are much better than say, Thomas Sorensen. That said, Lehmann's form has been encouraging lately and Poom's arrival would only bring out the best of Lehmann. We have been linked with Adebayor, Kette, and even Cisse. They are all forwards. Forwards? Or that of Senderos being outmuscled by Drogba? Or the memory of us being the victim of Gilberto's injury last season?

Saturday, July 30, 2005. Ajax 0 - 1 Arsenal. Arsenal's first win in the tournament. Ajax's first defeat for 5 years? Until 80th minute it seemed like we were heading for 0-0 draw. Arturo Lupoli came in and I thought let's see some of his touches. Freddie had several great chances which his blown away. That's alright as long as he is trying. So what of Lupoli? Defensively we did okay. Senderos was shaky and bettered by Cygan who came on for him. Kolo, Lauren and Cole was their usual selves while J...I tal...

Wednesday, October 26, 2005. Sunderland 0 -3 Arsenal. Eboeue is a fullback who possess more skills and pace than Lauren does going forward. He can be an option when Ljungberg is injured. Ljungberg's ability to time his run into the box is incomparable within our squad but Eboeue has proven that he has got ability to score from outside the box to offer us different option. His winning goal in the Sunderland match was a 25-yard-screamer by the way. Way to go kids. Posted by phoenix chix at 2:16 PM. But I a...

Wednesday, January 25, 2006. Arsenal 2 - 1 Wigan. Wigan are through and justice prevails. They deserve that historic final for all the hardwork. Arsenal are just an average side at the moment and being an average side, we played well last night. van Persie's goal was class and I wonder had we been the one that need to score one goal with 12 minutes left, would we have succeeded? Or would we end up getting all frustated and fall into opponent's provocation the way we did against Everton? Fining an 18 year...

Thursday, December 29, 2005. Arsenal 4 - 0 Porsmouth. Our true test will come when we play Man Utd next week but nonetheless, there is plenty of positives from this game. And while Porsmouth's midfield players aren't exactly of the highest quality, Flamini did well last night. He generally contributed significantly in our attacks. Is it the haircut? Posted by phoenix chix at 9:30 AM. Wednesday, December 28, 2005. Charlton 0 - 1 Arsenal. Not to belittle the precious three points but consider these. So the...

Monday, November 28, 2005. Arsenal 3 - 0 Blackburn. So we maintained our 100% record at home. So Pascal Cygan was still playing leftback and everyone knows now where to attack us from. So we were again saved by our excellent attacking players for in truth Blackburn could have scored a few but for their poor finishing. It was mentioned that when we were 2-0 cruising, people were still crying for van Persie. Now that was special. And the boy didn't disappoint. Ten minutes to score is it? Taking the ball at...

Wednesday, April 26, 2006. I have tried my best to play down my feeling of seeing my beloved team winning the semi and getting into the CL final for the very first time in history. Yes I have tried that when I wrote my previous post. I have tried to act cool until I see Henry holding THE CUP. BUTTTT. I can't! I can't believe that this Arsenal has made it to the final. The invicible Arsenal failed. The Arsenal side which won the domestic double failed. But this Arsenal side. I really like the picture of W...

Friday, September 30, 2005. Ajax 1 - 2 Arsenal. I didn't manage to watch the game and as such could only draw conclusion that:. 1 Freddie's 80 seconds' goal was a typical Freddie's classic which started from Flamini's good work in disposessing an Ajax player. Flamini then fed Reyes who made bursting run into the box and spotting Freddie's movement, our no.9 passed to Freddie who controlled the ball well, advanced and as the keeper went down, chipped the ball pass the keeper. 5 Flamini and Cesc didn't hav...

Thursday, February 23, 2006. Real 0 - 1 Arsenal. First of all, let me say this. I was so damn proud of our players. Amazing! His name is Cesc Fabregas, you better remember that! Kay, now let's try to look at it more objectively. In that game, Real have at least two players who can do wonder: Robinho and Zidane. Arsenal have one: TH. Defensive wise, it is clear now that we have got Lauren's replacement. Did you see Eboue's energetic run as he brought the ball into the opponent's half? How we wish that we ...
