Oh Yeah! We sizzled, we dazzled, we sent the Red Army on auto salvo!

After an upset defeat at the hands of Fulham, there was no denying the Gunners from showing a world class 90-minute performance. The Gunners ruled the game from the start, hammering the Tooney Toon’s half pretty much the whole first half of the match. 73% possession is no “LUCK!” The slick passing is certainly back along with golden boy Cesc (4). That lethal connection with Robin (11) and the tireless runs of Samir (8), Gael (22) tormented and ripped the Toon’s defense apart. With Denilson (15) patrolling the center of the park and Emmanuel (27) running down the flanks, the Gunners were simply stringing passes like knife through papaya.

Sure, I’m just glowing after the resounding win. It was like satisfying orgasmic sex. It was victoria concordia crescit! We had it all, the beautiful football with the deadly finish, that counts! With that, the Gunners move up to second in the league.

The Gooners at the Liz were as happening as ever. The moment I got my seat, good old SgGooner screamed for me to update Red Salvo. Haha! He somehow got the mic again and started announcing the Tiger Beer challenge to win a trip to Emirates and watch the Gunners take on Liverpoopoo this November. It’s a fantastic deal I must say, but with the fasting month coming and the fact that I don’t drink, it’s almost impossible. Almost…I might find ways.

There was a camera crew as well at the Liz, going round interviewing fellow Gooners. My dearest got in as well, and then got tongue tied so she pulled Siren over. Haha, how convenient! I think my dearest confessed she was a Devil before converting into a Gooner 6 years ago thanks to ME!

So, the Gunners showed the true potential of the team with Robin scoring from the spot and slamming home his 2nd through a back-heel from Eboue. Denilson opened his BPL account with a goal that left Shashay Given rooted to his balls. Robin could have gotten his hat-trick but smashed the crossbar before getting substituted due to an injury. The Emirates gave him a standing ovation as he leaves for treatment.

Ade played his heart out breaking the Toon’s midfield and picking up the ball from the defense to create chances. The lad is certainly showing his commitment. The camera guys at the Emirates were doing a great job as well. Superb shots of the fans, a young Gooner showing dismay at William’s front goal miss and a Toony fan downing beer along with his team into his belly. This time round there was no sudden show of a duck though. That cameraman probably got fired for his fetish. An awesome shot of Mikael, Dudu and Patrick in the stands enjoying the game was flashed too.

This win is significant. We did well in all departments, scored good goals and kept a clean sheet. 4-0 against Twente and 3-0 against Toons showed we have what it takes to challenge for the title. Theo was introduced in the 2nd half and once again inspired the offensive with his blitz.

Ah, it is such a good feeling. All Gooners in one voice at the Liz made me sound like I just got back from a rock concert. But it’s all good. With Everton crushed by Pompey, we can sing:

“One team in London”
“There’s only one team in London”
