Much better in theory than in practice. I had 8 people in my Seattle apartment for scrambled eggs and the 2002 AFC Championship game at 10 am. Then it's over by 1:30pm and you're elated, exhausted, and kinda hung over on a bright sunny day.

They're going to have to put some special grass patches on Sanchez' shirt. Wenger isn't going to be happy to be paying the cleaning bill, might have to sell him

Ozil says he plays in the 10 better than anyone, but he's playing at the 11. Is Wilshire really that good?

Ozil is kind of floating...he really hasn't done much to influence the game.

But Wilshine is playing deeper than a few guys, so he's not really the "10" in Arsenal's formation...it looks like Sanchez has been in an advanced center role moreso than Wilshire.

Kompany has been ridiculously good today.
Yeah, he's been the anti-Mertersacker this game.

Both sides have to be pissed and relieved. Arsenal comes back from down one, then goes up one, then City comes back. Then numerous posts. Over all I would have to think Arsenal is just sick.

Gazonks, hope there weren't any traffic delays in Sunderland, where it's now 1-1 at the Stadium of Light after four minutes.

Swansea are taking it to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge - had a couple of glimmering opportunities outside of the Terry OG

Hey Mousa, do that more.

And Kaboul going into traction might be the best thing to happen to our defense this season so far.

The Gary Weaver/Davie Provan team calling the Chelsea/Swansea match are my least favorite PL commentators.  Just a never-ending stream of cliches.  Although Provan's accent is fun.

Everton 1-0 thanks to Lukaku two minutes into the first half but have looked suspect defensively since then.

When Chelsea gets going they can be pretty fun to watch. Damn. I seem to always come away impressed by Eden Hazard.
