Well that was fun last night.

Three teams, two Champions League spots. I am not convinced we'll get it, it would require some real poor results from the other two teams. I see Chelsea kicking in like they always do and we being left fighting Spurs who have a much easier run in and are still a point ahead. We might have given ourselves a little too much to do in the end.

Still I am pleased with the fight in this team all of a sudden. Last night was the fourth consecutive Premier League game in which we came from behind to win, a record apparently. Three of those four wins came from very late goals, Henry against Sunderland, RVP against Liverpool and Vermaelen against Newcastle last night. Wenger is often mocked for his insistence that this team has great 'metal strength' but we are seeing it at the moment. I don't know what did it, they seemed to have finally snapped at 2 - 0 down against Spurs and haven't let up since.

Nice full week until the game against Everton, going out of the FA Cup and Champions League will have advantages in this run in.
