Discussion and Prediction:Arsenal vs. Portsmouth

Gunners will face Portsmouth to strengthen their 3rd place position.

Recently,especially last week our kids starts to give good result to us with a drew with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and a late win at JJB Stadium.However,our defence sometimes worries me as I had see the game against Chelsea and Wigan where our defender makes decisive mistake and Arsenal could have conceded goal if Arsenal is in bad luck.However the luck seems to be in our hands.

Portsmouth on the other hand is improving tremendously compared to their last season when they were almost eliminated to Division 1 but they just collected enough points for them to stay in Premiership.This season they have shocked us with such a great performance and win most their Premiership game.

However,I don't think Portsmouth with beat Arsenal in Emirates Stadium,maximum will be draw again if Arsenal isn't playing seriously.

I don't think Arsenal skill loses to the other team especially M.United,Liverpool and Chelsea,it just Arsenal loses on the consistency.Liverpool at the beginning of the season was also performed badly,but now they started to keeping their good performance on every match.

In Premiership,each team compete for consistency,not about performance.Of course if their performance is bad then they will lose point.We saw Arsenal can beat M.United at Old Trafford,becoming the second team to draw with Chelsea after Aston Villa but what Arsenal loses to them is consistency.Why Arsenal could lose point to team like West Ham,Middlesbrough,Manchester City when they could thrash the best team ever on Premiership 3-0.

I think Arsenal must take every Premiership game like the way they take on the game against the Devils and The Blues.Even you win Manchester United it is also 3 points and if you win Watford it is also 3 points.I wonder if the smaller team beat the bigger team they could get 4 points for that,the Premiership will be much more interesting to watch.

Ok,lets see the other fixtures in Premiership this weekend;


Charton vs. Liverpool
Newcastle vs. Watford
Wigan vs. Sheffield United
Reading vs. Blackburn
Aston Villa vs. Bolton
Everton vs. Chelsea
Manchester City vs. Tottenham
Fulham vs. Middlesbrough
West Ham vs. Manchester United

The most interesting game to me to watch is the game Villa vs. Bolton.Why?It involve Arsenal as their points are extremely close to Arsenal.If they could draw them it will be good.The second wil be the game West Ham vs. Manchester United.Why?because I want to see how West Ham perform now after Alan Pardew were sacked.
