I think his most incredible asset is how he pops up in counter attacking situations, it's amazing how he always finds himself involved every time we break somehow. Add in his pace and acceleration and it's amazing what he does. Lampard was brilliant in his prime when it comes to popping up in scoring situations but IMO Ramires is better than Lampard ever was. Now if he can learn how to finish that would be a major step to world class status.

Although he one of his goals today was a brilliant chip.

Neil Warnock sacked from QPR.

Really surprising, but glad since I can't stand him

It's a shame, I think he's a good manager. Unfortunately, I think he's a little too outspoken and not "Premier League" enough. He's the kind of guy who will almost perpetually be stuck in the Championship, and any team he brings up will have to majorly over-achieve for him to keep his job.

Can't stand him either. Good on QPR, he's a fool and a moron.

Just got home from a long flight and missed the game.

My smile got wide after checking the result and now it looks like a grand canyon after checking that Scholes is back. :D

Ramsey looking good so far, Coquelin is certainly up for it. Up the Chamberlain/Chamakh/Arshavin front line the most likely to score is certainly Chamberlain.

Should have been a yellow for the foul on Arshavin, ref looking straight at it doesn't even give a free kick.

Ball wasn't out. Terrible officiating so far.

Arsenal dominated the first half, but couldn't score. Sounds familiar. Leeds are dirty as hell.

This could be the worst Arsenal side, offensively, I've ever seen under Wenger.

Rumor is Liverpool is persuing colombian striker Jackson Martinez. Would be a nice addition since Suarez is suspended.
