Phew! Arsenal made the most of their last 30 minutes and stifled the attacking spirit of Sheffield United for their first home win this season.
William Gallas was an all-rounded performer who scored a goal deservedly. Freddie Ljungberg looked livelier today. Thierry Henry finally provided an ‘assist’ to a Sheffield player’s own goal and scored one as well. He’s still not looking at his best, but it’s much better than before.
Arsenal finally scoring and winning in their own stadium is like … not having constipation anymore. Imagine if you could do it in a Man United loo but not the brand new loo in your own home. That would be a sick feeling indeed.
