Roar, Gunners!

“Liverpool is my faith and Anfield is my heaven!!!” Better think twice first before saying this. We shall see who will have the last laugh. Hehe! Once again, it’s all back to the game of the season; the trophy decider for both top teams in the English Premier League, Arsenal and Liverpool. Neither side can ill-afford to lose their only trophy of this remarkable season, especially Liverpool since Arsenal still has the slightest possibility to win the Premier League title.


the 3-legged battle continues at 2.45am...


Both teams clashed twice last week at the Emirates Stadium. Going through with both draws, Liverpool had a slight advantage as they managed to sneak away an important away goal. I bet later on tonight, Arsenal will be firing from all cylinders to score goals. I am seriously expecting a very pulsating, entertaining and exhilarating yet high-tempo attacking game tonight. (Don’t disappoint us with a boring defensive game ok, Liverpool?) Hehe! Cesc Fabregas, being at the heart of Arsenal’s midfield has branded Rafa’s man for playing ‘boring’ football but we hope that this will not be the case tonight. =P


go! go! go! Gun 'em down!


The return leg at Anfield will be the test of the season for Arsenal as they will be bidding for a trophy this season; either the Champions’ League or Premier league. Anfield will be tormenting as their fans will be roaring with full spirits to the fore for Liverpool. Home advantage? Maybe not. As a loyal Arsenal fan, I will be hoping they can gun down Liverpool tonight and thus going all out for the Champions’ League trophy. They did it against AC Milan, 2006/2007 Champion at the San Siro stadium and I am looking forward for that repeat. Hehe! Van Persie needs to be much sharper at the front with Adebayor scoring from the dead-ball situation. All eyes will be on Fabregas being marked tightly by Mascherano and Stevie G. I wished that Peter Crouch better not playing for this match because he had a good scoring record against Arsenal. Anyway, Gallas and Toure will do their utmost best to keep their strikers at the bay.

The night of clashes between 2 giants, ARSENAL vs LIVERPOOL. Be sure to catch this not-to-be-missed match at 2.45am. (Astro or live streaming. Hopefully RTM 1 will air it live! Poor Crusader...) To my brother, Crusader, Malcolm and all Liverpool fans; one word. LOSE. Hehe! To Jason C, Iynggaran and all my Arsenal buddies, rock on and let the Gunners gun them down! Keeping my fingers’ crossed. Long live Arsenal! ^_-
