With United and the Gooners drawing 2-2, the other good news for us is that Liverpool also drew with Blackburn. The thing is watch out for Chelsea. They seem to have gotten their act together now and are scoring for fun as well!
However, I always thought that we were a superior team (slightly) compared to Arsenal. Its true that they had a lot of possession, but I don’t see that they are creating dangerous chances. Furthermore, the United midfield of Anderson and Hargreaves has broken up a lot of their play, restricting them to play their brand of so called ’sexy football’. All of their goals were very scrappy, scrambling and if we hadn’t loose our concentration, I would think we would have won it. However, fair play to them as they are a very good and resilient team.
The two teams we saw on Saturday is the two best team in the Premier League at this moment in time. United edged it I guess, having almost won it until the last last gasp equaliser by William Gallas. The Gooners fans are raving about their play and seem to be quite happy with the point the salvaged while Sir Alex felt that we could have won, and we dropped to points rather than won a point at the Emirates Stadium who has been a fortress.
Two best attacking teams in the league now and it lived up to its billing by having scored 4 goals each. Some of the attacking movements were very good. So, I can see both teams up there challenging for the Premier League Champion spot. The question is who is going to catch up with these two very good sides. Liverpool? Not really. Chealsea? Maybe.
