A victory against the old enemy makes us go crazy while a defeat brings our morale down a lot, especially when we knew this was one of the best chances we have had in recent times and we were in the middle of a good run. There was not a lot to write about and I am just going to keep this post pretty short.
The game didnt go as well as we all wanted. Like I had mentioned before the match, it was a 6 point match. United won thereby moving to the top half of the table. Only 5 points separate them from the leaders, Arsenal.
Coming to the match, our midfield looked ragged from the start. Ozil, Santi or Rambo could not influence the game in any way. Mertesacker didnt play the game because of a flu and that proved crucial as Judas (of all people) scored from a corner. He celebrated wildly after the goal, as if to say that he doesnt give a shit about Arsenal who made him the player he is today.
United sat deep after the goal giving us more of the ball. We dominated possession in the second half but United's defense was very solid. Smalling and Jones in particular were impressive as United managed to hold on to a 1-0 victory.
Overall not that bad a week for us as Chelsea and City dropped points too. Hopefully Theo will return after the international break giving us the much needed width on the wings. A dominating performance against an in form Southampton team could come handy before December when we face City and Chelsea back to back.
We have to put this defeat behind us and keep marching towards the title
