0-0 HT
Arsenal had the better of the opening exchanges but Chelsea was more dominant in the last 20 mins of the first half. Game is anyone's for the taking right now
-
0-0, 71 min
the opening 15 min of the 2nd half was very even, then chelsea brought on robben and wright-phillips for shevchenko and geremi respectively. Since then, Arsenal have had no answer for Robben's pace. Seems like only a matter of time now until Chelsea scores.

GOAL!! 1-0 Arsenal
Completely against the run of play. Flamini, 79'

I find Ballack shoulda come off, not Shevchenko. These types of conditions are better suited for him-he runs at defenders with the ball more than Ballack does, just like Robben, SWP, Adebayor, etc.

GOAL!! 1-1
30 yard BULLET in the Vee from essien 85'

What a goal by essien. That was class

HANDS DOWN BEST GAME OF TYHE SEASON THUS FAR!!!

Arsenal can thank their lucky stars after Chelsea hit the woodwork twice in injury time. Great game
-
the ending up of that game was real nice. that game was played at a fast speed and after Arsenal score... Chelsea was piling on pressure on Arsenal defense. What a goal by essien
-
Senderos is a real goat boy...lawwd da man too too down himself today..

Chelsea should have won. But the saves of the game....
Post on Essien....
Fabregas or Flamini (not sure which one) on Lampard in the 93rd min...Yes he did get a touch on the ball before it hit the post. It was the slightest of touches but the ball changed motion ever so slightly. If you don't believe me watch it in slow motion and if you have Tivo or digital record even better. What a good game though.
Chelsea has some work to do.
Lata and enjoy de day.

Ass-n'-all were lucky today because of all the (metal) woodwork that Chelsea hit, but, considering the depleted state that Ass-'n-all are in, Chelsea should have done a little better. Ass-'n-all played a great game, and both goals were nice......but we KNOW which one was nicer!! This was a bigger loss for Chelsea today, they lost ground to manu.

Tell that to Palos.
I remember last year Palos was lauging at Vidic and Evra when Arsenal have Senderos and Cygan.
As for Chelsea they will contnue to lose points palying with 4 central midfielders. Every game they are handicapping themselves. Chelsea bought big this summer but they did not buy smart. Ballack does not make them better. When he is on the field with Essien, Lampard and Maka they lose width and Essien is anonymous.
Two straight games now they have to bring on Robben to save a big game. And the fat that geremi always has to taken of is proof that they still have no defensive cover.
But Mourinho playing coward and only want a set of players who could shield the back four and attack free-kicks and corners.

sent off for what??? Obviously Jens was giving DD a helping hand up after his play acting dive :devil:. A friendly pat on the back and Didier take crumble like a stale crix biscuit ...... The cheat mentality of the Blues is widely known and instilled by mourinho. If you can't win fairly ..... then by any means necessary.
Gunner for life :beermug:

I must be hear Ballack name call bout twice during the game. The man was non-existent. Is game like this where "big" players have to show their worth.
-
Very good game indeed.....I find some of allyuh too hard on Cenderos. He was shaky at the start but was solid afterward. He gives you that strong physical presence at the back. He made a lot of strong timely tackles too.
Other than the early shot Ballack was ineffective.
Although Hleb should have scored he had an outstanding game and is a soon to be big player.
The post was a blessing for Arsenal.
Djourou is also a promising player.
In the end Chelsea should have won but it was a damn entertaining game.
Big goal by Essien
-
I Just got back ;D Arsenal should got beaten in the last 2 mins but I can believe the two players that had the chances missed despite the fact they are playing for a Top Premiership club (Essien too wildfoot & Lampard has been playing doodoo since World Cup, no suprise he hit the post in the first half. How the hell he got in the top 3 Footballers in the world is beyond me. SG Is better) Only one other I can think that would miss from those chances & that is Drogba,lol.
That was a Great goal by Essien, Top Class he wont score a better one in his career.
I don't care what anybody say Flamini is ah bad man. Everytime people come slew him & he pops up when we need him & the last minute, his vital touch ;D. (This is also in relation to last season when Arsenal had no left backs) that was a Classic Arsenal goal. I wish the next game between the two was in March or Feb I can't wait until cole comes to the grove :rotfl:
CFC Security are soo petty trying to manhandle kids looking for stuff that might offend cole, they full of crap anyway after the Racially abused Eto'o. Even if thats not true look when Eto'o tried to celebrate at Chelsea last season.
Anyway Chelsea had all their big guns & still couldn't kill of a lesser Arsenal Side when they should of **smh** lol
I don't care how much Drogba scored this season they still need a better striker.

Big goal by Essien
Senderos was Dangerous today :rotfl:, I don't care what anybody say. He played so well last season now this lol This is not the first time against Chelsea anyway he has performed so risky.
Imagine if that Essien Shot lick you in the face. That will make you think how much power was in it a bit more ;D
-
The game was shit until Flamini score...allyuh memory real short. First half must have been the worst 45 inutes in a Chelsea - Arsenal game in a long time. But Flamini'f goal and the introduction of Robben were hte turning points..the last few minutes were fire. The last 4 minutes of injury time was the most exciting added minutes in any game I have ever seen. Essien miss a golden opportunity on the line....
Ballack had a decent game. Never gave up possession and was always there as an outlet pass. He kept it simple and so seemed quiet, but he did fade in the second half. Not the same player as 2 years ago, but not as bad as everyone seems to think.
Gilberto Silva was amazing.
Essien goal had me on my feet shouting goal all by myself.
Anybody notice Droga has lost his early season form. When was the last time he scored? His flick around Senderos in the 1st half was deadly tho'.
Senderos really fraid Drogba yes
Lehman need some kinda medication
Good drama...but until that goal...the game was terrible
-
Arsenal have now come good against the four top powerhouses in the Prem... ManU, Liverpool, Spurs and a fitting draw against Chelsea without the services of Henry... some erratic form but lets hope this is the end of it.

The game was good for what people value the EPL for, Filho: drama, excitement and atmosphere. wheher or not it was the best in terms of skill and tactics? I don't know,- I think Jose should have started the wingers or brought them on sooner- but I think you are giving Ballack a little more credit than he deserves. Forget two years ago- he isn't even the player he was Last year, but, to be fair, maybe we should give him a little more time to adapt........but his abilities call for a little more than just keeping possession in the midfield and being available for outlet passes. He should also be giving defenders real worries. I agree, though, that G. Silva had an EXCELLENT game, he was really ass-n'-all's best player but SWP let me down. He gave up the ball too easily too many times with Chelsea on the attack. When Ass-n'-all recover from their injuries they might just turn this title race a little interesting.

I wouldn't say the game was terrible until the first goal.....I think both teams were just very good at shutting the eachother out....so it was kinda chess match-ish, but the standard of football was pretty crisp and the pace and intensity was high.... It reminded me of the Germany- Italy game in the cup- kind of a stalemate until a goal opened it up....
Is Rosicky injured ? or just benched ?
-
Entertaining contest. Senderos scary, but not as bad ad Cygan...
As for Arsenal, yuh have to think, young team, No Henry, no Gallas, No Toure, good result.
Draw Chelsea, beat Manchester, beat Liverpool.
Life not as bad as it seem.
For Chelsea, they produce the exciting ball we know they can play, but they Draw a weakend Arsenal Team and loss ground to Man U. Better win a cup this year...

For What??
Drogba fall down like how Senderos play(a load of ah shit.) Too much theatre.
-
steups, it kinda weird to see cashley in a chelsea shirt. i so accustomed seeing him running up the wing, knocking it with pires. sigh, the good old days.
i only saw the last 20 mins but i get my money's worth. arsenal were lucky today, i must admit. gilberto like he have some men from bahia lighting endless candle and killing chickens b/c chelsea really should have scored some of those chances. wenger like he wanted the draw, i thought he would bring on walcott to turn up john terry and them. when hleb missed the shot my pardna bawl how he look like a member of the strike squad ;D
-
I real enjoy this game.
I thought we had it when Flamini score but the Chelsea pressah was too much.
Essien score a big big goal, between he and the Portmouth goal saturday both is class.
Robben purge we, and SWP shoulda come Arsenal or stay in ManC.
Senderos ent good. Arsenal need a good center back.
I ent frighten for this side. It young still and have plenty experience to get. and yes Gilberto put in some blade today.
Premiership looking out of reach but I go still dream bout Champions league and FA cup.
-
like nobody see the foul that cashley cole put on Hleb that led to Chelsea goal ?The commentators and all were saying that it was defintely a foul.

That wasn't any more a foul than 99% of the football that is played in England. Gimme a BREAK!! What about the two hanballs in the Arsenal area that weren't called?
-
Look all I can say is a group of boys gave some seasoned professionals (some may even say the best in the world) a run for their money. Arsenal are surely building for the future and when you consider who was missing they will be a force soon. As for Chelsea they look a different team once Robbyn playing.
-
a foul is a foul if you kick ah man standing man leg !
-
Allyuh listen to Mourinho interview after. Dat man have talk boy. He say bold face bold face, I expect after Wednesday encounter to be 5 points behind the leaders. Just so the man count he points against Newcastle. If I was Newcastle coach I play that interview for my players before the game. :bringiton:
-
That game was bosssssss!
Once again, Arsenal shows that they can play with the big spenders.
For me the Man of the Match was Gilberto Silva
The goat of the match was Shaun Wright-Phillips!
-
It was a good game. Both teams played fast and aggressive football without taking too many risks. Gilberto was huge for Arsenal and definitely my man of the match. Fantastic strike by Essien.
-

Well in that case, how come you didn't ask about a penalty not being called when Drogba was hauled down in the box? The commentators had called that a foul, too.
