Chelsea (FA Cup Semi)
Wenger made a crazy team selection showing he’d learnt nothing from Stoke(A) at the beginning of the season. This team can’t battle a physical threat, physically (if you see what I mean). So sacrificing the brilliance of Arshavin and the burgoening ability of Song for Diaby and Denilson was just criminal.
Anyway, Eboue – didn’t score and was to a degree culpable for their first. Was too close in for a rightback and gave Malouda time to control and shoot. Bugger!
Also worringly now my stats don’t match Arsenals who have him playing one more game than me… …must investigate and correct them! 
Update – was me that was wrong. Missed Man City out – must have been a forgetful performance!

Hull (H) (FA Cup)
The goal machine was only allowed 8 minutes (well 13 when you add the 5 minutes of “injury” time for Hull’s time wasting). Didn’t really do anything great or too rubbish, though he did appear to want to play centre forward rather than right midfield – and maybe Walcott’s pace would have been more useful in the last few minutes….
On the positive side, at this momemnt in time, Ebouegoals is now the most up to date record of Eboue’s goal record at Arsenal! Arsenal’s own website still has him on only 3 goals and soccerbase tend to lag a little bit. Wikipedia was a bit wrong… …so I corrected it! . Finally on this list of links, there is also a twitter update which actually updates faster than here. (I will try to see how I can add it to the site at some point)
Finally, a bit of reflection. Since I started this site – Eboue has doubled his goal tally! At this rate Henry’s record could be up for grabs… …you heard it here first.

Burnley (H)
AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING.
NEVER THOUGHT THIS WOULD HAPPEN – BUT I HAD TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF GOALS
After 2 wonder goals, the wonder of SONG to EBOUE and GOAL!!!!!!!!
Hoping that updating this now will have a positive impact on events in Rome! (hello Colin)

Another dire performance today at Cardiff. Having seen the midfield quartet of Nasri, Song, Ramsey and Eboue I was already despairing before kick off and the first half performance did nothing to lift my mood…
More tomorrow!
