Young Guns blazing to Cardiff

Chel$ea, High Noon at Cardiff… last night, the young Gunners gave us plenty to cheer with a smacking 3-1 extra time win over our long-suffering foe, Tottenham.

I thought the Gunners were on their way when Adebayor ghosted in from the left and scored in the 77th minute. Alas, Mido headed the equaliser five minutes from time.

Come extra time, Aliadiere whipped in the second goal. Thanks to Spurs’ Rocha, who headed tamely to the Frenchman’s path. In the 112th minute, Rosicky’s effort came off the post and via Chimbonda before rolling in. 3-1! The Emirates erupt.

I thought the Spurs players were pretty rough…Ghaly and some others. Gunner Denilson was pretty illustrious as he peppered Robinson with a few long range shots.

I forsee… Thierry Henry lifting the League Cup at the Milleniuum Stadium as end-February beckons…
