Blues Gunned Down The Gunners

I am still in shocked due to the weekends' game; that's why it took me a while to write this piece.

Me and my boys were an hour early for the Everton against Liverpool, changing places in between game for Arsenal versus Chelsea. 2 cups of coffee produced enough energy to last all night until Real Madrid and Barcelona game. 3 awesome fight and other games looked kinda pale.

Rooney killed off Pompey with a hatrick and Giggs marked his 36th birthday with a stunning free kick. Kevin Prince Boateng managed to score one goal thru a questionable penalty given by the referee due to Kusczak's foul; which is irrelevant. 4-1 it is.

Everton was lifeless. Jo was offside prone. Fellaini is still with the aggression and earned only the ref's attention. Saha should have been played earlier instead of Jo. Pienaar's passes were inneffective. Liverpool without Torres do looked, well, not that deadly.Both team looked even at half time, with only an own goal by Yobo; kicked by Mascherano which I thought "Oh? He can kick the ball?". Everton's effort looking for a win against Liverpool was kinda lame(?) and not edgy enough to kill off Liverpool's desperation.


Second half chances should be sealed off by Fellaini who stabbed the ball bounced off Reina; which Rafa tipped as the world's best goalkeeper, i dunno in what sense and in which game. And there goes your only chance. Liverpool made use of the opponent's defenders mistake; Yobo again, and score another goal thru Kuyt. He appeared indestructible. Everton looked even more lifeless after the second goal. 2-0 it is. Finally a win for the Reds. Boo!

Chelsea and Arsenal; was the game anticipated. For the fans, it is their pride. For the neutrals, it is a great game to make fun at them.


Arsenal lost Van Persie due to injury and it 'caused them the fluid movement in the attacking. Eduardo was too slow and Arshavin was predictable. The only thing Fabregas can do was his wishful passing to his teammates; and they could do nothing. The Arsenal boys looked too weak against the powerful Chelsea men. Their defenders looked fragile, there was no chemistry between Gallas and Vermalaen. First goal scored by Drogba, assisted by their own boy, Ashley Cole. Second goal came in from the same guy, Ashley Cole who crossed the ball in, with a nimbly deflection on Vermalaen, the ball went in. Dubbed Vermalaen as the culprit of an own goal. Then came the third goal. From a free kick of Drogba. Well, now be careful of this guy. He's a beast, don't provoke him. Even with the subs; Rosicky, Walcott and Vela, Arsenal can't do a thing. Boys will be boys. Inexperience boys can't win titles. Chelsea cruised thru the game and won. 3-0 it is.

Now the race is back. Between Manchester United and Chelsea. Trust me. It is between them.
