Laugh at Wenger

Finally we have beaten the damn Gunners in a Premiership game. Now all that is left is the FA Cup and we can claim to have kicked their asses in all competitions before. We all know about how lucky the goal was but in reality Arsenal hardly threatened because of Chelsea's resolute defence, which I feel can hold off even Brazil and Real Madrid. Drogba though scored with his shin, it takes a good player to get into his kind of position for such opportunities.

Gallas and Terry paired up superbly as centrebacks. Ferreira was solid as usual and Del Horno made an excellent home debut. His sliding tackles were flawless and defended very well. He even had time to pour forward in attack. My Man of the Match is Makelele as he was all over the place working his ass off and also securing the defence with his presence, experience and skill.

Mourinho was clever to put Crespo in for the first 45 minutes but change to a more physical player in Drogba at half time to put off and confuse the Arsenal defence and of course Senderos. 2 games, 6 points, 2 goals scored and none conceded. West Brom should be so scared. I expect a team consisting of Essien, Tiago, Cole and Carvalho for this game. And a fresh 1st team squad for the trip to 3-point lane this weekend.
