Arsenal 1-0 Megson
Ferguson, Wenger, Scolari, Benitez, O'neill, Megson. Megson? Who the hell is Megson or medicine?
Some knob who refuses to lose to teams clearly of higher quality.
Was on hiatus. From the match-recap, they were apparently owning the match as usual.
Anyway, the ratings:
Manuel Almunia 6.3 : Looked shaky at all times, but saved well from Vaz Te late in the game.
Gael Clichy 7.3 : Gael Force as usual showing why he still is a candidate for captaincy gave van Persie a perfect opportunity with a cutting pass.
Kolo Toure 7.5 : Did well to tackle Elmander and eventually injured him. Not bad for a stand-in captain. Also had an audacious shot from 30 yards.
Johann Djourou 7.2 : The freakily tall centre-back headed well and is getting rather consistent.
Bakary Sagna 7.2 : Used his speed to overwhelm Davies. Another consistent one from the world's 2nd best Full-back.
Samir Nasri: 7.9: Was the only midfielder who tried slicing passes. It worked magically too! Silky and tricky all game.
Denilson 6.5: Never really eager in the game, pretty lazy overall.
Diaby 5.8: Does remind me of Berbatov, lazy like hell and misplaces several passes.
Eboue 6.2: LOL does he really want to change? Looks as if he was in Central Midfield again.
Adebayor 6.6: Tried a turn-shot which was easily saved. Hesitated for ages and didn't hit the target at all. Should have scored.
van Persie 8.3: Phenomenal from FA Cup Captain Marvel. Was the most motivated player on Arsenal's side. His snap-shot flew inches above the bar and gave the fantastic assist to Bendtner.
Subs:
Vela 7.1: Was great on the left side of midfield. Gave Arsenal the depth it needed.
Bendtner 1.0, 7.7 ( Off-pitch, On-pitch ). : If he didn't score, he would have been killed by Wenger for telling Muamba the tactics. A great finish though.
