What did we do wrong?

Everton made Chelsea look flat en route to a surprising 2-1 win thus leaving the blues winless against the toffees. 2 matches, scored 5!! Arsenal. 2 matches, scored none!! Maybe it's because we never took advantage of air balls.

Nonetheless the league is wide open for 3 clubs after Arsenal's 1-0 win over Liverpool. Both clubs came out with guns blazing. Fantastic end-to-end play. Fantastic build up only to have subpar finshing. Too many put over the top or bar grazing lasers. I was disappointed to see Samir Nasri subbed out so early I thought he played well, but Wenger thought otherwise. The game seemed to die down a little in the second half as both clubs were hesitant into fully commiting on the attack. Arsenal has been caught on the break against United and Chelsea so they were not taking any chances, especially when a man like Gerrard can thread long passes better than anyone since Kaka's splitter against Liverpool in the CL final way back when. Liverpool, on the other hand were just too cautious about losing seeing they were unbeaten in 7 matches. Build up just wasnt there, but the shots over the top and bar grazers were constant. We had a break through when substitute Tomas Rosicky's cross found Abou Diaby's head into the far post. 1-0 but still we didnt feel safe. Sure it felt good to have the lead for once Liverpools leash was let go..coming at full force. Dangerous opportunities against the gunners not taken advantage of. Gerrard had a prime chance to score on a free kick just outside the area, Almunia finally looked like a first team 'keeper for once. And that was that. What was then a 9 point gap turns to 6. And seeing gunners have an unusually easy looking finish, Val. Pips. You better hope Chelsea and United don't drop vital points from here on out. We're going to close that gap very soon if this happens. So the date to circle now is 31 April. Manchester United v. Chelsea.
