Hi All,
An exciting London derby awaits us on Saturday when Arsenal travel to take on West Ham.
Avram Grant has said that he would show more emotions than he usually does if his team manages to beat the Gunners and make it 3 wins in 3 home matches.
Arsenal are facing a defensive crisis ahead of the game with Squillaci joining to the injury list which already features key defender Vermaelen.
Also, the Gunners faced a shock defeat in the mid week when they lost at Ipswich town in the first leg of the Carling cup.
Lets hope we get to see a thrilling encounter between these sides.

Yeah, Arsenal win by 3-0. By age it was boys versus man and they boys have won. I glad Arsenal win it convincingly and what make it sweeter is a ManUtd vs Spurs resulting in draw. It put Arsenal 2 points adrift from the top and pull themself further away from Spurs.
Robin Van Persie look sharp after a long time injured. Theo look dangerous. Nasri and Fabregas combination look better. Wilshere look more mature and he deserve the 90 minutes play time.

I think that Arsenal will be able to get a comfortable win from this game even though they have a couple of injuries. Fabianski is injured still so they will be playing Szczesny again who didn't do a bad job against Ipswich. Its the defence with arsenal who are a bit unreliable, they all like to forward a lot and no one stays back, but I think Arsenal have plenty of talent to get a good win today.

Arsenal got their winning feeling back by thumping West Ham 3-0. Goals from Robin Van Persie and Theo Walcott were good enough to seal the good win for the gunners. I am happy to see Van Persie begin to score more regularly now. Arsenal are now two points off the top.
Cheers!

I watched the match and it was a comfortable 3 - 0 win for Arsenal. West Ham were poor and i can not see them escaping relegation.
