Really?Whoaaa...

I cant believe my eyes when I saw one Alexandre Song lobbed a perfectly timed ball for Eduardo to hit. Why was it so perfect? Coz the ball landed exactly like the striker wanted it to be..on his left peg, not to high and not to low and in the area where the defender was helpless to do anything about it. If Fabregas did that, no surprise then. But we are talking about Song here. THE Song. The one who lumber around the midfield pretending to be a decent footballer. The one who previously was the worst Arsenal player ever (for me that is). And he capped it all of with an audacious backheel, again perfectly weighed for Eboue to score. He outshone Diaby bu miles. Maybe its time we change our perception about this fella eh?

Ok lets balance things a little bit. Other than those two assists, Song was having just an ok-ish display. As usual, he gave away posession too cheaply at times, and somehow managed to conjure few moments of brilliance (other than those two assists..damn it sickening to say about it). As I said Diaby was poor as he reverted to his ball-hogging-difficult-pass habit again. The centre backs were decents and so was the keeper, albeit one missed catch thanks to Diaby. Sagna was awesome, and for once his cross found an Arsenal player. Gibbs was great offensively but defenseively his positioning need to be worked on. Well Eboue..oh sorry Im still barring myself from mentioning him.

Eddy and Vela were outstanding. Velas gonna be a star. Trust me this kid is unbelievable. He may be small but he can ride challenges. And the goal was hellishly brilliant. Same goes to Eduardo. How we missed him in the run in to the title last season. Hes the only striker we got who likes to move his ass around a little bit. Lots of off the ball runnings from this guy. How about that for a volley? Incredible yet cheeky eh?

Things are definitely looking up for the team. Walcotts back and if he keeps making those runs, Arshavin will find him easily. Arshavin might be the one who will make things ticking again. Time and time again he found Walcott without spending too much time dwelling with the ball. His football brain is miles ahead anyone else in the team bar Fabregas. Van Persie who supposed to be our main creative spark, took 5/6 touches before releasing the football while Arshavin took only 2/3 touches. Thats the spped of thought for you. Maybe he can teach some of our so call playmakers (Robin, Nasri, Abou Im talking bout u) to do the same. Hes still doesnt look fit enuff for me though.

p/s : Im still sceptical about Song. Im not saying hes got nothing in his locker but he certainly not yet up the the high standards Arsenal have set for themselves. Until he can produce the same kind of performance week in and week out again then I might change my view on him.

The left footed Thierry Henry to be?
