Gosh, what a match yesterday. More about in a bit, right now I´m way too interested in a discussion on AA about renaming the Emirates stands. Of course they should be renamed, they are dead boring right now. These people just have way too many good ideas for the names. Highbury, Woolwich, Clock End bringing the old times back, and then there are managers and players too. Personally, I would not name anything after Thierry Henry, even if he was the greatest Gunner of all time according to the poll on the website, but Dennis Bergkamp needs to be there. I love the idea of naming the orange part after him. Like I love the idea that he might be back at club someday... And naming something after Wenger when he still is there would be kind of tacky, but then again, he absolutely needs a stand. Tricky. I really hope the renaming is possible even if I never get to the stadium. And now that I keep reading this then fuck, Pat Rice needs to get a part named after himself too. Not that this will happen, because apparently the stadium is a FIFA neutral stadium and therefore there can´t be official names to the stands and all, but it could be unofficial, right?
Now, about the match. Ugh. I really hated the first 70 minutes of it. Fine, we had the lead when going to half time, but then Hull came and netted the equaliser and at that point I really considered switching it to the previous channel to watch some utterly boring Serie A match, because gosh, had we lost that... Thank god we didn´t. The defense was so lost when Cousin got through. Not the first time and I think it must be said that it won´t be the last time either. Um, Diaby and Denilson were having a rubbish day and I seriously spent the first 10 minutes thinking who was missing from the usual bench gang as there was Merida this weekend. (It was Wilshere, and I assume it was because he played FA Youth Cup match this week. Which Arsenal won 3-1.) Adebayor always looks like he´s the laziest guy on the pitch, but when the time comes, he does what he has to. The header was great. I can repeat myself and say Nasri and Van Persie are starting to work like an absolute dream together. Robin´s cross to Samir´s goal yesterday... Oh, more of that please. And really, Robin is really stepping up this season. He has been finally showing the brilliance he has. Absolutely one of the best players of the team at the moment. Apparently I should have given up on liking Nick Bendtner a bit more earlier, because now he come soff the bench and scores. Second time in a row. Maybe he will be good after all. They need to keep it up like this and we just have to hope Aston Villa finally loses at some point. FA Cup again next week, should be interesting. Oh, we get the match live on TV. Even better.
Mom just decided this morning that we are going to make a trip abroad. Who am I to say no when she pays? I just have to wait until March.
Oh and the little narcisist in me insisted on having a new profile photo, so I have. Mainly to show off my shorter haircut. Got to keep the pic updated so you know who is behind all of this :P
More to come at some point. Take care!
