Better than Brazil?

If I thought I could go and watch better football than that anywhere else, I’d pay a lot of money to do it. Truely sensational stuff. That is how football should be played, oozing with pace and flair. Three needless bookings aside, a flawless game. Credit to Slavia who did look threatening at times and could have had a goal for themselves if it wasn’t for a good Almunia save. Their fans kept singing and were applauded by the Arsenal faithful for their efforts. Walcott had his finest game as a gooner with 2 great goals and was unlucky not to bag a hat-trick due to a fine stop by Vaniak. Hleb was looking on top form. Everytime he got the ball he would turn sharply and create space. Some of the passes Fabregas sprayed around were world class. His volleyed long ball to Theo was inch perfect. Bendtner got his 2nd goal in as many starts and looked good. Even Eboue was getting in on the act with his trickery.

I’m trying not to get too carried away as there are two very tough games coming up. That could decide which way our season is going to go. Liverpool aren’t at their free-flowing best, and clashes between Gerrard and Benitez are getting more frequent. I’m hoping the mighty gooners can really give them something to fight about on Sunday.
