Great Glorious Gunners

Pride and glory was the only two elements that flooded the hearts of Arsenal players and Highbury supporters. Everyone was proud of their 7 goal defeat on the Toffees. Everton was expected to be hold light celebrations after confirming them in the preliminary round of Champions League football. However it was Arsenal who denied ManU their last hope to takeover the second placing in the Premier League. This would spare out more time for Arsenal in their pre-season training and preparations. They will be having a training programme ini Austria.

Now it wouldn't be such big news if Henry scored a hatrick in this crazy win over Everton, but Henry didn't find the net in the match. However, he did get a few shots on target. The team showed what they was capable of and they proved that they could control the game with accurate passing and quick-paced counter-attacks. The new combination of Sol Campbell and Phillippe Senderos worked out fine. Campbell looked a little rusty after being absent for a few games, yet he managed to produce a good tackle which stopped a goal oppurtunity. Wenger started the game with experienced players with the likes of Viera, Edu, Pires in midfield and Cole, Lauren and Campbell at the back. Two young promising and talented young strikers were paired up in front.

The lineup proved itself as a sufficient strategy. There's not much to say to prove it, just look at the score! It was the biggest win for an Arsenal team under the guidance of Arsene Wenger. The team's performance also signified that young gunners in the mould of Fabregras, Flamini, van Persie, Reyes and Senderos already suited in the physical game of the Premier League. Flamini and Fabregras came in as substitutes and helped the team score four goals in the second half of the match. Flamini scored a goal himself after coming in at the interval. It looks like he will be the best inheritor of Viera's position. Fabregras is also hot in his boots. He didn't score but his never-ending run and great vision of sparking off an attack will surely bring Arsenal to a different stage when he is fully matured in the game. It is quite hard to convince ourself to believe that the Spanish teenager is just 18.

If we take an overall observation, we can't say that Arsenal had a dissapointing season. They managed to walk out of the aftermath of the loss to ManU. Although it costed them the throphy, but their young lads got the chance to boost their game in the Premier League. If it wasn't for the young lads, Arsenal wouldn't have finished second in the table.

Lastly, all the best to the Gunners in their upcoming fiery battle against ManU in Cardiff. I hope the 7-0 win scared the hell out of ManU players and Alex Ferguson.

MAY THE POWER BE WITH THE GUNNERS !!!
