Yes, I woke up at four in the morning to watch this.

[levity]

I miss my Spanish commentators. The English ones are so... dispassionate. And hey, if all they're going to do is be boring I at least want the option of not understanding when they do things like criticize the youth of the Arsenal side and then say that Arsene Wenger had the right idea in bringing in his young players once Arsenal started leading 3-0.

I'm willing to forgive everything for the last part of that last sentence.

Arsenal 3-1 Chelsea at the Emirates. This is what a win against a big team feels like, and you're not Barcelona? I want to be used to it already.



Alexandre Dimitri Song Billong, please never stop coming through when we need it.





Bakit parang andami kong pictures na tinatabunan nyo si Song, guys? The oldest one dates from early October. Not that that's a bad thing in any way, but. The pictures all look the same, too, despite being from different matches.






I love everyone's facial expressions.




There's Drogba.




Then there's Frank Lampard.




And then there's Terry.




Terry pulling down Robin.




Synchronous disagreement.



I want Carlo Ancelotti's trench coat.




Cesc scored in the 52nd minute.










Tapos si Theo naman pagkatapos niya.




Theo Walcott, he's an Englishman at Arsenal...











I wanted a picture of Samir's almost-goal, but it was not to be. The picture, I mean. Well, the goal, too, but. Shutting up now.





This is Arsene's reaction when Chelsea scored. When Arsenal were still two goals up. I love our perfectionist manager.




This is Arsene's facial expression after winning against Chelsea. I think I prefer the latter.




Man of the match, I think?



Also, Thierry!
