What do you think the correct score will be for this game?
Can ex-Spurs star Berbatov do his old club a favour and spoil the party for a shaky Arsenal? The Gooners are favourites but I am not so sure. I am hedging towards a draw or a Fulham win.
My prediction is:
Arsenal 1 Fulham 2
Controversial eh? What is your prediction?

I am responding as the match is going on. At half time the score is currently at 2-2 with Giroud and Podolski scoring for Arsenal while it is Berbatov and Kacaniklic. And looking at the game so far, this is not the ending of the scoring in this match. Fulham have been the better of the two sides going forward so far, but I think Arsenal will clinch this match 4-3 at the end!!
Cheers!

Arteta lost the penalty. Oh.. He's unlucky today and I'm sure he might get a horrible rating for giving a penalty and missing one. Arsenal should have let Giroud to take the Penalty as he had scored twice. Confidence is quite essential in penalty. Arteta didn't perform very well and gave off a penalty this night so he must score or he would be criticized by fans and the media. That would make him feel much pressure when he was taking the penalty. However for Giroud, he seems to be quite confident after scored twice. If Arsenal let him to take the penalty, I think they would win and Giroud would had a hat trick. Unlucky for Arsenal.

Well, at this very moment I just watched Berbatov's assist for a 2-2 draw. He scored the first goal too... And I thought Arsenal would win this game after Giroud and Podosky (thanks to a superb assist pass from Arteta) finally scored...

Yes, but that depends on how these two players would perform in the second half. Especially for Giroud, he need assist from the middle fielders which could make good use of his height. In the first half he had a few chances and scored once. But he also had a few offsides. The goalkeeper is huge problem for Arsenal in the first half. They have to hope that Szczesny could play as soon as possible.

So far it looks like what works for Giroud is when he runs toward the ball for a header like how he did it tonight.
And you're right, Arsenal's goalkeeper should have stopped the second goal.
Oh no, Arteta just caused a penalty; Berbatov kicked it, and of course that keeper could not saved it...
Oh, I was upset when Giroud's shot hit the poll; good thing Walcott was able to retrieve the ball and passed nicely back toward Giroud whose header again scored.
3-3 now, and I'm still waiting for a winning goal from Arsenal...

Now it is 2-2! Giroud scored this time. I predict that Arsenal would win and Giroud would scored a second goal. But it seems that Arsenal has some problems in the middle field. I think they shouldn't have sold Song, Song was even more important than Robin Van Persie. Now the denfending in their middle field is extremely bad and when Song was in the team he could also assist in the attacking aspect. Now he's in Barca and in Barca his performance is bad.
