First Three Points!!!
And it comes from a Champions League away game that would have been interesting but for the unnecessary red card.
Hamburg may not be a popular name but if you care to look at their squad, they do have good players. Daniel Ljuboja (not sure the spelling), Vincent Kompany, and Nigel de Jong are few quality players they have on their side. I am especially interested in Kompany, the young Belgian who, if memory serves, rejected Chelsea and chose Hamburg. Wise lad.
I didn't watch the game so I won't comment on anyone's performance. But I will praise Gilberto for taking on the captain armband and having the nerve to convert the penalty. Rosicky's goal is about time. He admitted that he won't be as prolific as Bobby but I am fine with that as long as he fights for the team and provide assists.
The 1-2 score and the red card tell us few things.
They tell us that this young team needs to be more disciplined and focused no matter how easy the game is. They will learn.
They also tell us that the most important thing this team needs at the moment is confidence. Continuing last season's form, this team know they could do well in CL and they got the result.
They still have doubt over their ability to win domestic games.
The Man Utd game will be massive. A win will give us an invaluable boost. Frankly speaking, I think we are still a level below Man Utd at the moment. We need to step up and give our 120% to silence Old Trafford. Can we do that? Of course we can!! The Arsenal that I fell in love with had this unyielding spirit that fear no one. I wish to see that in this young team.
And by doing that, proving to Cole that these young players can actually fight. Cole may have lied many times but no one lies all the time. I read his story on the lack of bonding and fighting spirit in current team. Anyone who remember how our players showed that "one for all and all for one" spirit during our unbeatable season will realise that Cole did say something right though the purpose of him saying that is wrong.

Chix, if the lads are going to play 120%, it's not for that Hole. The lads are going to play above themselves because they're wearing the red & white. I'm very sure Wenger & the Gunners know the score and will play out of their skin this Sunday.
Of course sggooner.. their motivation will have nothing to do with Cole =)
But it would open his eyes and really.. I might be a minority here but I am never afraid to admit that I will never be able to curse or hate Cole.
To me, he was once someone who played with all his heart for this club. He mixed up with the wrong company and he made mistakes, big mistakes indeed. But we all make mistakes, don't we?
