The deserving gets the accolade! Jens has been announced as the Player of the Month in Arsenal.com’s poll for April’s player of the month. And rightly so! For the remarkable and outstanding performances Jens has delivered for the Club this season, in the Champions league and especially after his historic penalty save in the 88 minute of the Champions league semi final match against Villareal there is nobody else more worthy of this award. Congrats!!
Another must win game for us against Manchester City tonight to make the race to finish fourth go down the wire. A win will surely mount pressure on Spurs which is good for us.
Cole is set to start for the first time since October 2 in this game while Clichy has been rested and so is Dennis Bergkamp. Reyes (wisdom teeth), Gilberto (ankle) & Freddie – who was rested – are the absentees from the Sunderland match that are again in the squad. While Diaby has started a long spell on the sidelines after his horrific injury at the hands of Sunderland player Smith, Hleb is back in the squad and Adebayor is not available due to a sinus infection.
ManCity have been in an awful form both away and at home off late so they don’t appear to be as threatening as they might be on another day. Having lost even of their last eight matches speaks enough of their poor form but we have to kill the game as soon as possible. For us to play Champions league next year nothing less than a win would suffice.
Two more wins and a hope that West Ham can extract something for themselves against Spurs is the remaining arsenal we have to beat Spurs to fourth place after we left nothing in our hands with draws against Portsmouth & Spurs.
