That first goal…
Gunners everywhere were lost for words. A lot ran out of superlatives… Sublime, Classy, Wondrous, Fantabulous…
The movements, the flicks, the passing…that is a once in a decade team goal. We can already see what having Santi and Ozil on the pitch can do for our midfield, and Arsenal can proudly say their team has taken on a Spanish-esque format – Win Things With a World Class Midfield and One Striker.
Oh, and by the way, you notice that ‘Halahala’ commentator? I think he’s a secret Arsenal fan because his ‘halahala’ is loudest when we score, not the first time I’m catching him with his ‘hand in the cookie jar of favouritism’. I like it.
Ozil and Giroud decided to swap places yesterday with Giroud providing the assist and Ozil scoring, rumour has it that that was Ozil’s first goal with a header; sublime.
Ramsey. Ramsey. Ramsey…
That was the best sub E-V-E-R. Ever.
Did you see how that dude took on the defenders? His confidence is growing and his game is, well, wow. See what Wenger says here.

And when he scored, there were jokes like this on twitter:
To the tune of Flinstones Özil, Mesut Özil He’s a superstar from Germany Madrid, sold him to us And they went and bought a chimpanzee

If you want to sing along, here’s the Flintstones theme song on piano.
Ozil sealed it, and here we are, daring to believe again. Enjoy the videos while I go have breakfast.
