Title: Arsenal Vs Chelsea
Post by: Whits on Sunday, December 12, 2004, 19:50:21
Anyone watch this?

I thought it was a fairly good game considering all the hype beforehand!

Whats everyones thoughts on henry's second goal? Poll looked like he said wait for the wistle then just let henry take it?

Jose wasn't happy - "The second goal is better to forget... I don't want to speak about it because If I speak about it maybe I have to go to the FA for a visit and maybe spend some money instead of on Christmas gifts"

Why did they show the replay of Henry talking to the ref about 10 times? Why didn't they just ask they just ask the ref what he said to Henry before the game? (they might of asked him anyway but I didn't hear really or wasn't paying a lot of attention because of the general ruffle going on)

The villa game was a good one to, a little fight and another goal keeping howler. Shame savage didn't really get into his normal mental mode. He normally spices it up a bit!

Villa game was very good, not classy football but a proper derby game. Arsenal v Chelsea was fairly exciting.

I saw Villa as well. Birmingthing hardly even got the ball into Villas half in the second half and Savage is a big gay bear and should be shot!

Bollocks, it was twice as important to Arsenal to go and get a result

the game was alot more important to arsenal than chelsea

the villa game was pretty good, a proper derby on the pitch.

It was a great game and a good result for Chelsea in one of their hardest games this season, Arsenal have missed the chance to close the gap and I doubt there going to get another one. Chelsea for champions. 8)

If you watch it again you see Poll asking about the whistle and then Gudjohnson backs off quickly and is shouting at his keeper to get over the otherside of the goal. He must of known what was going to happen otherwise he wouldn't of done that.

Fair goal if you ask me

I agree with Magic, fair's fair, the Chelsea players took an age to get back ten, organise the wall etc.  Henry took his chance well.  Goalkeepers are so stupid!!!

I remember our very own Johnny Moncur scoring our first ever Premier League goal in similar fashion away at Sheff Utd.  Wasn't complaining then, not complaining now!!

Sammy Igoe scored one v Sheff Wed last season on the opening day.

 Of course the daddy of them all was Micky Evans at Plymuff last season.

Chelsea shouldn't have given away the free kick and should have organised themselves much quicker and I'm sure Mourinho realises this, which is why he's not come out and blasted the ref like so many managers would.
