This is a big win even if Drogba and Essien was out! Always like that we score goals, but in games like this there is only one thing that matter - 3 points. And about confidence before the scum-game: we have it - and we got it today :D
Im not saying this wasnt a big win. All im saying is any other result would have been unacceptable. Yeah id take the win too.

I would be dissapointed if we did`nt win. But to say that a draw would be unacceptable is a little bit harsh. Yes, we are good, but against the big teams we can not always expect to win.

If you look at the last couple of seasons, the players who had made the difference in these games had been Drogba, Essien and Terry. Thats the spine of the Chelsea team we are talking about here. A team aiming to win the league should beat this Chelsea side, a draw is not always enough just by looking at the name "Chelsea", its a severely depleted Chelsea. I would have been furious with a draw.

See that doesnt matter, without the 3 players i mentioned Chelsea are not good enough. As much money as they have spent, they are dependent on 3 or 4 players to win them the league, which just goes to show that if you take out 3 or 4 important players from any side, they will struggle irrespective of the money they spend on creating a strong squad.

Fucking fantastic our boys...but noone has mentioned that C*ntly Hole should have been red carded for punching Cesc in the face!!!!!!!!!!

As usual Chelski were dirty rotten cheating bastards and was amazing when Ade took out Cole...just a bloody shame he didn't break his leg!!!!!

I have had the best weekend.... Friday was Arsenal Legends Ball and I got mistaken for Perry Groves missus(although actually that may not have been a compliment!!) Saturday got pissed with friends and after, Gus did his best Omar impression and today although he pissed off and left me to go to Emirates and I made do with watching game down our local, beating those fuckers was the cherry on top!!!!

I'm going Sat to watch us spank the Spuds and todays win has made it all the better.........sorry, if you hadn't realised I'm a bit pissed and absolutely exstatic....and to finish weekend off...Gus will come home a happy man!!!!!!


C'mon you Gunners!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :wink:
