All that training pays off
Arsene Wenger this morning looks back on last night's 2-0 victory over Celtic and must be delighted to see that all that hard work pre season on the training pitch has worked off.
The first goal came from William Gallas, his second in two games, as he tried ever so hard to get out the way of a free kick. The ball deflected off his back, just like in training, and it was 1-0 to the Arsenal. The second goal was an og.
You can imagine Celtic boss Tony Mowbray being gutted at conceding two poncey goals like them but hey, that's football. He wanted the job, get over it.
Celtic never really threatened and Arsenal's defence looked impressive. And it was good to see we sat back and then counuered alot more, especially second half, than we have done in recent, barren, seasons when we have been camped into our opponents half desperately seeking space.
