CSKA Preview, Rosicky to prove the difference

It will be a pleasure to watch a real football match tonight with 2 teams who are there to play football not to play out a subplot out for their dramatic cunt of a manager.

A point in the Nou Camp in the group stage of the Champions League. It's all too much for Jose 'small man syndrome' Mourinho. What will he do if they only get beaten by 1 goal at our place?!!

Arsenal play host to CSKA Moscow with a score to settle. The 'goal' that never was still irks us and we will want to put it right.

A victory tonight is imperative, anything else and we could make the group more difficult than it should be.

We have everything in our favour, an excellent surface, more space and motivation, not to mention the (slightly) warmer temperature and the frustration following the anti football in the Everton game.

I have a feeling that Rosicky will prove the difference, he has been running into form and is particluarly effective in the 4-3-3 cum 4-5-1 formation which allows him to break and drop into a more central area than normal.

He and Cesc will be pivotal in our performance and I think they can outfox CSKA who are not as good a side away from home as everyone is making out. Yes they are organised but an early goal could set the tone.

I fancy Rosicky might unleash one from long range to break the deadlock. That'd set the tone very nicely.

Let's hope we get behind the team tonight and be sure not to boo Henry.. Hmmm.. As Arseblogger says, why can't journalists just report the facts. That's the only reason I don't read the front section of newspapers.

FRONT: Unworthy 'news' stories known in the industry as 'bullshit' made up by desperate fools to fill space before you get to the real news.

BACK: Sports reports, factual accounts of the game with little or no opinion. At least it should be.

Rant over.

Come on you Gooners.
