What a good win by the Gunners tonight. Playing at Villa Park, against much improved Aston Villa side who have won 4 consecutive matches, Arsenal came back from a goal down to beat the home side 2-1 by goals from Mathieu Flamini and Emmanuele Adebayor. A win against difficult team at their home ground is good indication of whether Arsenal are equipped to challenge for the title this year. What do you think of the win?

Definitely a great performance by the kids from Wenger's stables!! More so, given the fact that they needed to bounce back from the trouncing at the hands of Sevilla in the Champions league.
The response that Arsenal gave in the first half immediately after the Villa goal was tremendous. Waves after waves of attacks and the goals were bound to come. What I liked about Flamini's goal was it was a decisive shot and not the usual Arsenal passing the ball into the goal stuff!!
But, the second half was dominated more by Villa as Arsenal preferred to stay back. It could have been counter-productive, but they got through it. I would have preferred them playing the way they ended first half!!
Cheers!
