Wigan Vs Arsenal

I felt that this may be one game too far. It is not worth blaming the pitch although it didn't help our fluid passing style, especially within the last 30 yards towards goal.

Adebayor's chance after just 45 seconds was probably the best of the opportunities as he was clear through on goal - if only he'd lifted it over the keeper.

I don't think this means the seasons over though and anyone saying that obviously doesn't realise the quality this team has. The team played alright yesterday it just wasn't happening against a team who defended with all men behind the ball. They got a brilliant point and we got a lousy one. That is how the football world will see this.

Now we have a week to recover, it is great to see RVP back, and we can look forward to beating Middlesborough this weekend. Time for revenge for the one loss we have had in the league this year.

I have high hopes for this Arsenal team. We didn't lose yesterday. We learned some valuable lessons and can now be confident in winning the majority of the games we have left this season.

This is and still can be our year.

We love you Arsenal we do!
