Cole prods Arsenal back to the top of the table…
4 comments September 25th, 2004
A flick with the outside of Ashley Cole’s left boot was enough for Arsenal to beat Manchester City 1-0, and leapfrog Chelsea at the top of the Barclaycard Premiership.
I just watched the full 90 minutes on Sky’s excellent Football First service, and it was a decent enough performance in a fast, furious, cup-tie-like match.
Jens Lehmann’s sure hands stood out, and Sol Campbell looked reassurringly solid upon his return after three months out injured.
Robin van Persie was an 88th minute substitute, making his long-awaited debut for the club. I’d imagine we might see him again on Wednesday.
You won’t, however, see me for a little while.
Well, you might.
But I’m off to uni tomorrow and I’m not sure when the next update will be. Probably not tomorrow. Or the day after.
Still, I’ll be back.
Eventually.
