"Well that was..easy.." -myself
If this was a match set to un-nerve Arsenal and to boost up confidence, the mark has sure been hit. But if it was to see how well Arsenal can push themselves to the limit with the opportunity that has been given to them, this was pretty well below par. A few talking points will explain what I personally feel...
Talking Point 1: Arsenal magic is world-class!
It was so nice..ok..nice is not enough to express the adjective. Try again..
GLORIOUS, SPLENDOROUS, MAJESTIC, MARVELOUS, BREATHTAKING..ya. It was (insert all the above) to watch Arsenal work their magic. This was shown by the Rosicky golazo. I believe only Arsenal can work out such a sublime move time and again. The last time this happened, a wondrous Wilshere slotted in perfectly. Enough of the Bayern or big-games-not-turning-up crap, the reason why Arsenal is such a great team to watch is because of goals like that.
Talking Point 2: Giroud not finished
Scoring two goals definitely mean something. After being 'dead' in the past few games, heck..past few months, I am finally seeing some brilliance in Giroud's game. Perhaps the bench-time really served him well. I must definitely praise him in that super super touch that led to the Rosicky goal. It was so amazing to watch that. Might I add that it was he who had assisted Wilshere in that super super goal as well back in 2013. Yeah Giroud had a lucky goal in that second one but a goal is a goal. And goals win you matches. Theres definitely more work to be done, though. We can still see that bad ball by Giroud from time to time. Anything beyond the first-touch of Giroud will always lead to a mis-pass or a lucky ball back to his teammate. And that is frustrating. Hopefully he improves and continues this rejuvenated run!
Talking Point 3: I...
Ok I'm tired.. that's all for today. Bottomline is, Arsenal won, Arsenal should have scored 7 or 8, Giroud great game, Rosicky SUPER game, Sunderland was stupid and Sagna should be given his contract extension. Bye.
