Arsenal's Dream run

It was another action packed night in the English Premier League which saw Arsenal moving six points clear of Manchester United while Chelsea gained second spot by defeating West Ham. Arsenal continued their dream run in the premiership with another win against Aston Villa 2-1. Craig Gardner gave provided the lead for the home side in the 13th minute but then Arsenal struck twice before half time. The Gunners had been a joy to watch in the opening 45 minutes with some delightful free-flowing football which often had Villa chasing shadows. They stepped up a gear from the minute Villa went ahead and their one-touch play caused the home side constant problems. Adebayor's flick played in Emmanuel Eboue whose low cross took a deflection off Hleb to tee it up perfectly for Flamini whose well-struck shot flew past the opposition goal keeper Carson. Adebeyor then shot the match winning second goal ten minutes before the half time whistle. Joe cole scored the only goal of the match in the Chelsea's 1-0 win against the Hammers. Manchester United have a tough task ahead tonight. They must win to secure atleast the second spot in the league standings. Lets wait and watch.
