VelaChip©, Eduardo and Eboue ensure cup progress as the Arsenal machine warms up for Roma

Posted on March 08, 2009 by Martin @ thegoonblog.com

Arsenal 3 Burnley 0

FA Cup 5th round – The Grove

VelaChip©

I have the copyright to all Carlos Vela’s chipped goal finishes. From now on they are known as VelaChip©.

Sorry, awful isn’t it? This is my second attempt at writing the blog after 600 words somehow got deleted due to my Internet being of the equivalent speed of a mouse running on a wheel.

I’m sure you all know about the game so i will swiftly dodge that part and its  a fantastic result for us.

What can i say about Eduardo’s goal? it was sublime and i for one couldn’t believe what he managed to do, he knew what he was going to do from the instant Song played that lovely ball and he finished it with amazing accuracy. We really do have a hell of a striker on our hands here, hes not flamboyant in the slightest but he has so much talent and the most fantastic mentality to boot. A fitting captain for the day.

It means that we are one step closer to Wembley which will be a first for this side, Hull are up next but we really should beat them with comfort considering their current form and they will be concentrating on survival instead of the FA Cup which means it is even more in our favour, no excuses for not getting to the Semi-Finals. Then, anything can happen.

Wenger’s reaction to the game was full of praise, its a case of wham, bam, thankyou maam’ for the rest of the season, lets just get the job done and move on, we still have 2 trophies and a CL place to play for and that is more than we had to play for at this stage last season as we were already out the FA Cup.

The whole team did very well against Burnley and hopefully the confidence given to the likes of Song and Eboue will show into what is the most important part of our season, Eboue will hopefully be more composed in front of goal now whilst Alex Song was imperious and it was by far his best performance in an Arsenal shirt.

Sorry for the appalling blog but my internet connection made sure that i lost a 600+ word post! Thank you Tiscali. Cunts.

Roma build up starts tomorrow,

Up the Gunners

    Woohoo a briiliant match! I love how a lot of the papers are already talking about a chelsea, man utd final. People seem to forget, with their best players injured Arsenal beat both of those teams. My money is on the gunners to win and dudu to score in every FA cup match.

    Roll on Roma, as long as they don’t stab too many Arsenal fans it will be a great night.

    u will agree wit me wenger’s goin to b faced with selection problem because i find it quite difficult to pick a first eleven, every1 wants to impress jst now. what do u reckon will happen wen evry1’s back?
    my first eleven will look like this:

    sagna gallas toure clichy

    walcott denilson diaby nasri

    arshavin
    RVP/Eduardo/bendtner

    Arshavin seems to b very useful behind d strikers(as against westbrom & after walcott came on against burnley) dont u think?
