England regained The Ashes. Hurrah!
Not only that, (and quite why I neglected to mention last night is a mystery) but Arsenal made a good fist of it on Saturday and beat Pompey 4-1. Seeing the Gallas incident on M-o-t-D, hats off to Steve Bennet. I thought Gallas took the defender out for one. Abou Diaby scored a rather spiffing brace. Not one of my favourites, but the boy done good.
Despite this wonderful start, P2 W2 10 2 +8, and marvelling at the silky skills on display, I'm not quite sold yet. In both games we've not kept a clean sheet. Our main striker has only scored one of those ten. Everton were as bad as we were good. Portsmouth. I felt, didn't look killed-off so to speak. It may simply be that they kept trying, didn't let their heads drop, and so on, but I was looking for Arsenal to really kill them off. It worried me that if it were better opposition would they have crept back into it. I much prefer these big margins than Arsenal putting me though it and giving away leads as they have done before. The lot down the road won as well, to take the sheen off a bit.
Welcome to the disappointment.

We can't both be right, it's probably me.
What say you esteemed visitor?
