Top Guns!

Interesting but steady start of the season for Arsenal FC, a few of the week’s issues..

The first game this season has passed and what a tough one we got. Let’s not make a mistake about this; Anfield away is one of the toughest fixtures we could have got. In this particular season, it perhaps was the hardest from the lot. The fact that Liverpool has got a new manager that has certainly brought a feel good factor back to that part of Merseyside, and also the fact that they made a very good signing with Joe Cole and more importantly kept Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres at the club. When speaking on the weekly fan’s forum on Arsenal TV Online, Tom Watt asked if I would take a draw and after much thought I said I would. It was important not to lose and certainly after keeping the ball pretty much the whole game; it would have been a huge disappointment to lose, so a draw was not a bad result.

Will Arsenal leave it late against Tottenham?

Over the past week & a half, one late goal, one sprinter, & one God-like human, have caught the fancy of Us Gooners like no one else & like never before. Whilst the former two belong to the ‘Red ‘n White’ half of London, the latter hails from the cryptic land of Cataluña. It goes without saying that the men in question are Niklas Bendtner, Theo Walcott & ‘the’ Lionel Messi. 11G takes time out to dig deep into their individual cases..

Slowly but Steadily..

This week things have changed and they have changed for the better for Gunners. We have displaced Man Utd@the 2nd spot in EPL and we are just 5 points behind leaders Chelsea with 1 match in hand. Arsenal have come a long way since the beginning of the season when all the football pundits believed that finally teams like Man City could displace us from the ‘BIG 4′. Contrary to all those predictions Arsenal has come out all ‘Gunns’ blazing and the title doesn’t look far, anymore.

An 11Gunners‘ view on the same..

Go Gunners...

This week has not changed a lot as far as title pursuit in EPL is concerned. But nevertheless this week’s results have confirmed some notions. First of all is Liverpool’s title pursuit is over for all practical purpose after they lost 3 goals to 1 against Fulham. Another confirmation is that ‘Deja Vu‘ feeling among Gunners after we dropped points against West Ham, is uncalled for and this season our Boys are gonna show that they have become Men now.

An 11Gunners insight into this weekend’s football..

The celerations shall continue

A thoroughly satisying weekend of Premier League action for any Gooner, a deserved victory, 3 of our nearest 4 rivals faltering in their quest, squad close to being full strength, the signs are there, the indications are becoming more clearer than ever that this might just be our year. Too optimistic you say, I say hope is what we live on!!
