Arsenal punished by their North London rivals by an awesome 2nd half comeback.
Arsenal 2 - 3 Tottenham
Arsenal's hope to top the table were completely destroyed and Chelsea is likely to extend thier lead over the Gunners to 5 points.
This is the first defect that I can hardly accept since the 2006 final.
This reminds me about 2 old comments:
1) Arsenal can no longer win any trophy under Arsene Wenger - by Palmer (ANR's blogger)
2) Whenever Arsenal close to the top of table, or win something, they slipped - By Mourinho
I was deeply hurt by the result. Fortunately this is a Novemeber match so the we may be still have chance to blow our title hope bubbles later this season. However, I hate the feeling of being strengthless. We used to have many match-winners like Thierry Henry, Robert Pires, Freddie Ljungberg. But the existing team can hardly overcome the obstacles they faced. I can name a lot easily, Clichy slip at St Andrews, the 4-4 draw with Spurs at Emirates, all the games against Drogba. They keep disappoints the fans.
I congratuate Spurs fans as they can smile the whole year with this victory. They did not expect their team to win at Emirates so these, including the Champions League football this year, are out of their expectation. Their team are climbing up from a position of middle team to challenge big teams. Being an arsenal fan in hard, you are not satisfied even your team got a second, because you always think the team SHOULD win something.
I am struggling as being a gooner. I missed the old days, the time when the team perform like winners. I loved the club. I look forward to this match for more than a month and spend the whole week to wait for the match. What I get from the match is pain.
I have high expectation to the gunners. At 2-nil up at half time, I expect them to score more to crash their rivals, and to build up their morale to both the midweek Champions League game and next Villa game. I think too much for the table and coming fixture, then Spurs's 3 goals got me back to the current situation.
I support the team since 1998, even when I did not watch them played a single minute. I bought up to 10 Arsenal DVDs to make sure I can always watch the goals when no match is played, and to retaste the wonderful winning memory. As the internet improves and I started not to satisfy with only the goals, I download every single MOTD highlights in recent years so I can watch more. I loved playing football video games, and I used Arsenal for many years. I follow many Arsenal's fans in twitter, as well as some Arsenal's players and I read their Tweets everyday. With all these, arsenal is just surronding me.
I understand the ability of the players from the replay, the news, the computer games. So I know they are capable to win something. There is no real difficulty to win against the fucking Spurs.
I almost cry after the final whistle.
