About Me

Astoria, New York, United States
One day I dreamed an impossible dream. In the dream I saw Arsenal defeat Chelsea on December 15, 2007 at Ashburton Grove. I was surrounded by a group of my closest friends. If it weren't for this blog, I would have no idea how we got there.

Last Season at Anfield: A Tale of Two Arsenals.

All I know is, on our day, that we can DESTROY Liverpool. Last year we trounced them in the cup games, away from home, 1-3 in the FA Cup and 3-6 in the Carling Cup.

Our last league trip in the spring, however, ended in an embarassing 4-1 defeat, following a week of confidence-sapping performances in the Champions League and the FA Cup.

You have to fancy Arsenal's chances though after the 7-0 midweek exhibition over a crap team and Liverpool's 2-1 loss to another crap team during the Matchday 3 of Champions League.

Anyways, learn some songs, as it should be a cracking game, and hopefully the atmosphere at Nevada's will match.
UP THE ARSE!

...before I go allow me to set the scene for perhaps the greatest moment in Arsenal history.

Anfield 1989:
Last game of the season. We're one game back of Liverpool. Liverpool are unbeaten all season at home. We have to win by two goals to nick the title off of them. We're 0-1 up. Time is fast running out... (Note: Arsenal are actually in the yellow away strip and 'Pool in Red, so dress accordingly this weekend)
