This Sunday saw Chelsea rolling into Islington to take on the Gooners. On paper, it looked like a draw and I went expecting just that.
As a "neutral" - hate them both, it was good to see Cesc back in the line up and Van Persie on the bench so I expected a good competitive match.
The first half was dull at best, both teams nulified each other and it was dull (and freezing!) stuff. Before kick off they had run out of pies (cant u believe that??) so we snuck out 5 mins before half time so unfortunately missed the only goal of the game. An unusual Petr Cech error led to a William Gallas goal from a corner.
It was the first time I'd seen Shevchenko aka Sh*tchenko live and man was he bad... he missed a sitter and cart horsed around for the whole game, havent seen a performance up front (one sweet free kick apart) since Andy Booth had his loan spell at Spurs back in the late nineties.
Arsenal should have scored more, but in the end they deserved the win.
Ashley Cole got the treatment and it was good to hear some noise from the usually quiet gunner fans.
A fun freezing match, few more goals would have been nice but great to be there.
