At the beginning of the season, most soccer experts and even perhaps most Arsenal fans ruled the club out of any kind of hope of becoming champions in EPL in the current season. Well, the Gunners are playing very well and they are getting goals a lot. Last night, they suffered from bad luck against West Ham. Arsenal was leading by 2-0 and then in the last 15 minutes, West Ham came back strongly to secure a 2-2 draw. Gael Clichy thinks that some mistakes were made and the players would try their best to correct them.
ESPN quoted him:
"We were in control of the game, but it is not enough because we have to win games and stop losing points like this because it is a big disappointment,'' he said. "We have the quality, it is just small details that make the difference and we know that.
"On set-pieces you have to be focused and referee decisions are not in our hands. "The Premier League is really tough - even at 3-0 up you can concede a draw or lose the game.
"That shows you the level of the competition and the teams we are playing against.That is good for English football, but we should have won the game. We do not really care about what the other teams (around us) do. We have to play our game and try to get as many points as possible.''
I am happy to see that the players have now confidence and this time they think it is achievable. Until now, they have done almost everything right and they just need to sustain their consistency.
