It’s been a long time since I wrote a preview so forgive if I am a bit rusty. Well the new premiership season bares down on us once again. Many premiership teams have brought exciting players as well as established players and it should make the premiership even more exciting. Have been watching Arsenal closely over the pre – season and we have playing fairly well. We have bought in Van Persie, who is a great young talent but will need some time, and Alumnia should provide good competition for Lehmann. We have also bought Flamini who is suppose to be good although I have seen him as well as a player called Lupolli, although he may need a few years yet.
Our first match of this season is against Everton exactly as it was last season except this time we are playing them away. The match against Everton will either be a very tight match or a very open match and I personally think it will be in between. I like Everton a bit as they work very hard for each other, although I don’t think they are nowhere near Liverpool yet and they have gone even weaker after losing Radzinski and possibly Rooney. The important thing that all Arsenal players should keep in their minds that they were the team that broke our long unbeaten record two years ago and they will try their best to break it once again. We played fairly well during the match when Ljungberg gave us an early lead, until Radzinski scored a screamer. A draw would have been fair as we had some chances and I remember one chance when Ljungberg lobbed Richard Wright and it was going until the final bounce when the ground made the ball spin away from the goal. Then in the dying minutes Rooney scored a very good goal, and even till today all I can keep on remembering is when the commentator started saying “Remember the name, Wayne Rooney”.
I really like David Moyes although I feel sorry for him as he has no money to spend on new players. The team try to follow their manager’s positive attitude. They have lost Radzinski which is a big plus for us as he always tends so score against us at Goodisan park. The biggest positive is that Rooney is out. I was really impressed with him at Euro 2004, and I love the way he plays his game without no fear.
One player that I like a lot from the Everton squad is Thomas Gravesen. He is good at long rangers and always gives 100% and is another one of them players that never gets enough credit, as he is due. Joseph Yobo is another great player that I like a lot as he is a very solid defender, and always keeps his cool and reads the game very well and if I was Wenger and was looking to draft in a new defender as we are a bit short now because Campbell is out than I would seriously consider making a bid for him.
Below is a list of Everton’s Key Players:
McFadden + Bent - Key Men 1
Gravesen + Kilbane + Cahill- Key Men 2
Yobo - Key Man 3
Wright - Key Man 4
Below is the team that I think will start:
Lehmann
Lauren Toure Cygan Cole
Ljungberg Edu Gilberto Pires
Bergkamp Reyes
I hope it is an entertaining match and Reyes scores a hat-trick and that we beat them.
On the Vieira issue I don’t want to say anything until it is confirmed by Arsenal officially although I would like to remind all fans that one single player is not bigger than a club.
Anyway people give me your replies and tell me what you lot personally think about the match and give your opinions.
