That was absolutely fantastic!!!!

I was cursing Santos and Mertesacker early as they both look extremely slow and take unnecessary chances. Both improved as the match went on.

BUT what an AWESOME display in the second half. Chelsea defense really looked quite poor for most if not all the game. Not to take anything away from our boys, but Chelsea do not look like they’ll challenge for the title this season.

Up the Gooners! Robin was fantastic and both Walcott and Gervinho looked very good. It has been quite a while since the entire front line had a good looking game. For me Ramsey was quite good and seems to be regaining the form he had before he broke his leg.

Great confidence builder for the lads. Hopefully this will go even further to settling us down and making us steady. The return of Vermelean should start to shore up our defensive woes. Maybe by the time January rolls around we might see Wilshere and Sagna returning!!

MY FUCKING WORD as Butch Wilkins would say…. Cool

Absolutely hungover watching that but cannot wait to get on the beer after that performance.

Fuck me, even the second half alone was epic stuff. Santos was terrible in the first half and world class in the second! This current side are the most unpredictable Ive ever seen!

Days like today are what makes this game so special. Would have loved to have been there today fuck me, fair play to our fans I suppose even at near 60 quid it was worth it for that!

Echo what others have said, after the day and seeing how much that meant to the lads, led by the legend Van Persie and I’m starting to love this team again.

We wont win the league and we probably wont even get 4th but fuck it lets give it a good rattle and we can at least be proud instead of always depressed!

I LOVE YOU VAN PERSIE!

So proud of the boys. Showed a spirit we haven’t seen for a long time. Yes there are issues that Wenger needs to address but what the hell, we won 5-3 at the Bridge and that was flattering to Chelsea!

@ZimGooner

Jenkinson was our best player against Marseille away before he got injured – I have been very surprised and very happy about his form since he started playing for the first team. I really think he is a brilliant buy – I didn’t realise how much pace he had – if it’s a choice between a fit Djourou and a fit Jenkinson – Jenkinson will win hands down every time!

Say Dev – Please update the top scorers as you still have last season’s totals with RVP @ 21.

Sorry Andy Cole should read Ashley Cole.

This should mark a test of the season and it seems the odds are for us. I’ve got a good feeling and I will wear my away jersey with pride. So if you see a 6′ 5″ Gooner with the name Biggie 69 written on it, run for your life. Funny I dreamt RVP hit hit a hat trick, Theo 1, Gervihno 1 (5-0 was the final score). Lol but once again Chelsea’s back 4 is quite menacing so Gervhino (arguably our best buy of the season) has to pull one out of the hat if he’s to trick Andy Cole. RVP stand a chance to score with the shaky Louis Wild Boy being suspect in the CD role. Theo’s pace may pay off but his opposite Ramirez will be stubborn as usual with his robust tackles. Chelsea’s hopes lie with Juan Mata (I wonder why Wenger didn’t get him earlier. Thank God Drogba aint playing but in comes Torres who now seems to be picking up his form. Our back line will be beefed up with Vermaelen’s return but I gather Jenkinson may be playing and if he does that will be our Achilles’ heel. Realistically speaking, I would expect 2-1 as our best score and the worst 1-1. It’s gonna be a hell’uva battle. Come on ye Gooners!!!
