haha. i enjoyed the game. was watching it at a bar and little did i know at that point of time that it was a spurs fan club home ground. was behind enemy’s line. that made it more enjoyable.

What I notice is when either attacking or defending headers, its your timing the is curcial. I think about small players such as Michael Owen and Tim Cahill, not the tallest players in the world, but they manage to time their heading to perfection. Vermaelen again isn’t the tallest, but his timing was on point for most of the game. Those attention to details will help us prevail. We seem to have done alot of homework pre-season I think which has helped us so far.. from the backline straight to the forward players. I’m very impressed to see how much the whole squad has grown and matured. Also very convinced that we can better last season too.

Win, Lose or Draw.. Gooner til I Die!!

Ah yes…saw it again…it was in the 53rd minute where Verm headed the ball before Crouch, tackled it off him another time then got his head on it again, all in 14 seconds! He did well with Crouch being a threat in the 51st minute as well. I have nothing but respect for Toure but he would not have done what the Verm did at this point in time. Guess Kolo going was best…no doubt he was class in his day. The Verm is different class…his footballing brain is what I like…and his ruthlessness as well! Hardcore guy! And he’s so humble as well! Good for the dressing room. Arsene…very very good catch!

I think I’m gonna go enjoy the highlights right now!

Hey dev…can imagine how tough it is 2 be travelling and keeping up with the website as well. Appreciate the effort m8.

What really stood out for me in that derby is how the Verminator was actually getting up there with Crouchy and competiting with him for the ball. Verm’s studs surely have springs in them! lol It shows that height isn’t everything…that intelligence and positioning as a defender is so important. If memory serves me right, I remember an attack from the oppsition in particular where I’m sure the Verm headed the ball away from our penalty area 3 times in like 15 seconds… Verm’s game has made Gallas raise his. We’re slowly but surely geting that balance between attack and defence right. At Man City we didn’t quite have it but I think we are improving even considering our recent draws.

Don’t wanna be anything other than a Goooooner!

cesc goal was simply amazing
forever gunners!
