Yo mama's so fat she broke her leg and gravy dripped out
Arsenal survive the North London Derby on the strength of goals by Emannuel Adebayor and Nicklas Bendtner. Dimitar Berbatov scored for Tottenham after the early “Baby Kanu” goal and won a penalty on King Kolo Toure that Robbie Keane lobbed safely into the outstretched arms of Manuel Almunia. Bendtner then made them pay and the Gunners held on to win 2-1. Tested time and time again, and beset by injuries in recent weeks, the Gunners seem to be showing the fortitude and resolve needed to win trophies. We’ll know more after the Pompy and Everton games, but this is looking like a solid effort.
And should the draw of AC Milan in the first round of the Champions League be deemed unfortunate, let that notion be dispelled by the inspired words from the Gunnerblog:
When Arsenal built the Emirates Stadium, it was for occasions such as these. On the 20th February 2008, Arsenal will host AC Milan in the UEFA Champions League. And on that night, there will not be an ounce of trepidation in my body. Not because of Milan’s shaky domestic form, nor our own impressive record at over-turning European giants.
But because this is exactly the kind of match that makes European football great. Only a coward wanted us to draw Porto today. The match with Milan is an opportunity for heroes to be made and for ninety minutes of football to become mythology.
In other words: BRING IT ON!!!
