Get Off Eduardo's back. Arsenal will beat Chealsea

An away trip to sunderland after an international break was never an easy way to start the premier league, Arsenal started well and probably played well throughout the 90 min but just could not penetrate the resolute Sunderland defence. To be true this was the result I feared against Sunderland because they have really improved under steve bruce, coming away with a point from Old trafford is not an easy thing to do. I would have been happy with a point. but anyways we lost.

Now about the match let me start of with defence.

Vermaelen and Gallas were solid as usual apart from that one setpiece, nothing they did wrong all day.
Sagna as usual solid at the back and also while attacking but his crosses were as usual not good.
Traore was lively throughout the match but was sometime out of position. he really need to work on defending more.

Now comes Midfiled.

Song was probably the best player but still he did not had the best game of this season.
Cesc was finding it hard to get thing ticking as he was playing deep and Cana was stuck on his ass like a bee to a honey. but still he did well.
Ramsey was tad disappointing, I expected him to do well after a week off and after such a brilliant performance from him against Scotland, was easily outmuscled at times.

Now, finally the attackers.

Rosicky was lively when match started but faded away, well could be because of lack of match fitness, he should have scored in the opening five minute of the game.
Nasri was finding it difficult to get in the game was lacking match sharpness after a long lay off, he was desperately trying to drive in the middle to create something but failed to do anything.

Finally about Eduardo, OK not his best game but got to give the guy a break and give him couple of games to adjust, because I see all the bloggers writing him off that he cannot play in that role. what I feel is crap? He will come good trust me. Even Van Persie took seven eight game to get on in that position. Trust me Eduardo will not take seven games to adjust, give him a couple of games and he will come good. Don't judge him by just one game, he will come good.

Overall we were the better team but failed to take any chances though they were few. Next up Chelsea, I have got a very good feeling about this game.

Have faith Gooners.
