Arsenal were hit by the mid week Champions League exertions as they could only come up with a lackluster performance at home against Fulham. Fulham took the lead through a calamitous own goal by Vermalen. Vermalen made amends for his mistake by scoring at the other hand. After that Arsenal tried their level best to take the lead, but failed to do so. This brings to a halt an amazing run of wins which lifted them to 6th in the table.
What are your views on the match?
Cheers!

It is a bit late to comment on this game, but because I didn't have so much time lately, I will catch up now.
I have bet on Arsenal and I was expecting them to win, but they didn't. I have watched some sequences from the game, and they were struggling to make the final touch. They have managed to get around the box but then they have hit a wall which didn't allow them to score. Eventually they did, but I was expecting more from them in this game.

Actually Arsenal were the dominant team for the match. But they simply could not put the finishing touch. One goal that they scored in the 2nd minute was ruled out correctly for offside. Then out of nothing Vermalen scored an own goal and after that Fulham put all 11 players in defense!!
Cheers!

This can happen against weaker teams, after they go in front they will not attack anymore, but put all the energy in destroying the other team's game. For teams that need points, it is compulsory to do everything they can to earn points and Fulham was rewarded for their defensive work with one point.

Yikes! Arsenal is on the way down yet again. I don't even know Fulham so I assume they should beat them.

So they are a spoiler. That is what we call a team who can mess up the favorite's chances.

Fulham played a very organised game and very nearly grab an unlikely victory. As for Arsenal, it is very obvious that they are having a hangover from the match against Borussia Dortmund. They are lacking in pace and urgency. It was only towards the end, with the substitutions that they look like the team the strung those few victories together.

Well, you are right.. I think Arsenal has tired and lost of concentration when played against Fulham last night. Even RVP has several chance but unable to convert as goal. This will make tonight match between Liverpool and City effect the position on the table.
