OUR XMAS GIFT

TO  ARSENAL

26th December 2003 | Arsenal 3 Wolves 0

 "Keep it tight", "Hassle them" - Those would have been just a few of the Managers Words before his Wolves team entered the Highbury arena - To collect another stuffing.

 Keeping it tight, something we have managed to do only twice this season, in all reality, was not going to happen - And this is why.

 After 10 minutes, Oakes had saved well from Bergkamp and Henry (twice) before Jody Craddock, the Wolves centre back scored - in his own net, to give Arsenal the lead.

 Wolves gave Arsenal a goal. They must have thought Christmas had come late this year. Nope. We gave them another.

 Jody Craddock was caught standing on the ball, Veiria took the ball off the Ex-Sunderland Man, squared to the penalty spot, Thierry Henry scored, 2-0.

 Wolves then had their keeper, Micheal Oakes to thank as he pulled off a couple more tremendous saves.

 Colin Cameron then played a lovely ball through to Kenny Miller, who after doing everything right shot straight at the feet of the Arsenal Keeper.

 The second half was a bit of a non-event. Arsenal just passed and passed, Wolves just panted and panted.

 Bergkamp smashed a shot towards goal late on, Oakes again saved well. 

 Then, a magical piece of play from Thierry Henry saw him tease the Wolves defence (again) and slot the ball past Oakes. 3-0. Game Over.

 This Premiership Is Getting Frustrating For Us Fans.
