I watched the highlight of Birmingham v Arsneal 2 years ago again. It is hard not to compare this match with Saturday's Stock v Arsenal.
Eduardo broke his leg at early moment. Every Arsenal player was shocked and hardly believe the fact. They were in a high tempo to win the league and got so many points with Eduardo's goals. They have just found their fox in the box and had to lose it.
A stupid freekick conceded just in front of the penality box and McFadden scored. No chance on Almunia's standard. The league leader was behind.
That young gunners had momentum. The Hleb-Flamini-Fabregas-Walcott midfield gave enough pressure to the opponent. Finally the wonderkid Walcott scores 2 goals in 6 minutes to complete the comeback. That Walcott was fresher and more dangerous than today's Walcott.
There were so many chances later for Arsenal to grab the 3rd goal. Adebayor preferred shot rather than passed to Bendtner, while Bendtner later missed his shot wide of the post.
It looked so likely to be 2-1 and it seemed a huge mountain has been climbed by the youngster.
During injury time, Clichy was suddenly out of mind in the penality box. Every other players awaited his clearance but he stupidly lost the control of the ball. Parnaby got the ball and got down even Clicky actually touch the ball. Penality.
The captain Gallas was so angry about the nonsense tackle. He cannot control his temper and tries to leave the pitch before the penality scored. He sat on the pitch and cried after the match.
We understand Gallas performed like that because he loved the club. But compare what Fabregas did last Saturday, you know who is a better captain.
Leaders cannot be emotional. They have to stand up whenever the team needs them.
Everyone said the stupidity of Clichy costed Arsenal's title. Can Fabregas' panelity made the miracle? Let'see.
