The Premiership returned yesterday after the international break and Arsenal beat Southampton by two goals to nil.
This was a good win as Southampton where third in the league. I am mightly relieved that Arsene Wenger took this game seriously.
This win was also needed after the disappointing loss to Manchester United.
This winning this game would has helped us to stay top of the league and continue in the winning mentality.
Which is so desparately needed after eight seasons of no trophies. I was pleased that Olivier Giroud got the goals.
As I think he has not had a good start to the season. So hopefully this will encourage him to be more confident in front of goal.
Lastly this win has helped us to break our poor November record where we have not had many wins in this month.
Elsewhere Chelsea beat West Ham by three goals to nil and this win has put them in a top four position and and just four points behind Arsenal.
I was surprised at the ease in which Chelsea beat West Ham as the rivalry between both clubs would make this kind of scoreline difficult to get.
Lastly Liverpool drew three all to Everton and I was not suprised by this result has merseyside rivalries would make this a tough encounter.
However I was suprised that Brendan Rogers named Kolo Toure as a sub and then didn't play him.
I would have thought the Rogers would know how important Kolo his to the defence.
Liverpool have not been conceding too many goals. That is I fully expect Kolo to be back in the back four in the next match.
So with Liverpool drawing and Arsenal winning it has extended Arsenal lead at the top to four points. Definitely exciting times if you are an Arsenal fan!
