I just watched a truly great performance by a truly GREAT team. The term "GREAT" is too heavily used these days, but i feel that Arsenal certainly deserve that title.
Yes im a biased Villa fan, and i was VERY happy with the way Villa defended in the second half ... Stefan Postma, our reserve goalkeeper was playing the match of his life just to keep the constant attackers at bay. And even our defenders were putting in bigtime to keep them out. But the class in which they scored their goals, you can do nothing but applaud the sheer artistry . Arsenal won 3-1, but not without a BIG FIGHT ... and for that im proud of my beloved Villans
But its just the passing game of Arsenal that makes them so GREAT. They very rarely lose the ball and when they do, it's a mark of a GREAT team who can get the ball back so damn quickly !! And you never see any high ball with them ... its strictly passing perfectly along the ground, every time. I think theyve taken Italian-style football and surpassed even that with sheer and utter class in EVERY position on the field.
I dont think i've seen a better team than this ... they are terrifying in just how clinical they can be. Last year's effort was an abomination to lose to the most BORING team in the world, Chelsea. But this year i cant see anyone coming within a mile of them, in either the EPL or the Champs League.
To those that support Arsenal, then congrats ... you deserve what you'll undoubtedly get this year. . Arsene Wenger is probably the best coach/manager in the world, if not history. Just take a look at their passing game (all you doubters ... like Hybrid Tiger will undoubtedly be :lol
p.s. i want to lay down a lazy $100-$200 on them to win the Champs League ... what price will i get ? Anyone know ?
p.p.s teams like Arsenal make the "Beautiful Game" just that ... BEAUTIFUL !!
