eboue's goal celebration was great - dancing at the emirates! its been far too long since the players really looked like they were enjoying themselves. from what i could see we should have had many more. poor bendtner, he just keeps missing sitters. at least he gets there and his link up play is often excellent. eboue plays well until he picks the wrong pass so perhaps his two goals (and one against burnley) will give him the confidence to stop acting like a tit so often :**:

denilson is playing really well - almost (almost) making up for the loss of flamini and song looks much more like the very capable international he is rather than a pub team player. wednesday night must have done something for them. we were soooo lucky against roma and that can mean as much as thrashing someone. i even think we can win the CL now. i mean, how crazy is that?

i've got another busy week but i'd like to go to the hull game. at least it will be on tv - i watched half of today's game on a very poor stream.

so it was great to see arshavin's goal on MOTD. what a delight! i saw him play against burnely and i was very impressed. he puts himself about - just like a recent highbury favorite. its unfair to make comparisons but freddie ljungberg was one of my top gunners: always totally committed to the cause and a massive personality. have we finally found his replacement in andrey arshavin:arsenal's greatest goal machine?
