It's not often Gooners are grateful to the Spuds for anything. But Paul Robinson gave the Spurs goal a charmed life as Chelsea had it under siege for most of the match. Drogba (allegedly the new Henry, I'll keep the old one thanks) and co were unable to score from numerous chances. Meanwhile Defoe (the new Drogba) was unable to score either, not as the Tottenham midfield provided many chances. Keane (the new Kanoute) headed the best chance of the game straight at Cech. Chelsea brought on Duff (the old Drogba) and Spurs brought on Kanoute ( you decide, fill in dots - the new......./ the old......). However the Spurs survived 5 mins of Mourinho time (the new Fergy time - enough new and old ed.), the electonic board had read 4 minutes, then went up to 5 minutes. But even this extra time was of no use to the prolifligate Chelski strikers.

Chelski's harder games
So more dropped points for Chelski, is Spurs a tougher game than Bolton? True Spurs defended well but they rarely attacked. Chelski's dismal lack of scoring prowess continues - at least it was 1-0 to Graham's Arsenal. Hello Mourinho - the song was 1-0 to the Arsenal not 0-0.


So lets put it into perspective dropping 2 points is not the end of the world, Arsenal Times resident Doctor has told us that at this stage of the season it often happens to big clubs such as Celtic, Chelski and of course Manure who have dropped many. He continues the important thing is not to be embarrased and be prepared to discuss it without getting hysterical, and not to worry too much. If all is well points will soon be regained - if however it should continue more serious remedies like sacking old red nose might be necessary.
