Arsenal Celebrate Arsene Wenger's 13 Years With Six Goals Against Blackburn

It was a scary game at times, but Arsenal eventually got their act together, and ended up scoring six beautiful goals against an annoying Blackburn side.

All eyes were on Arsene Wenger today as if he was starting his very first match, in his 14th year of being in charge of Arsenal. Tomas Rosicky was also in the frame, considering it was his 29th birthday today. Sadly, he didn't get a chance to celebrate with a goal.

N'zonzi and Dunn scored two lucky goals for Blackburn, however, N'zonzi's was quite a beauty. While Vermaelen, Van Persie, Arshavin, Fabregas, Walcott, and Bendtner scored the six goals for Arsenal, as the Gunners prove their intentions yet again.

Things looked worrying when Blackburn took the lead twice, but Arsenal was able to fix things with ease.

That's not to say that all is well, the referee refused to give Blackburn what looked like a blatant penalty when they were 3-2 down, that decision proved to be a turning point in the match, had Blackburn equalised, the scoreline could've been different.

However, what proved to be the most important thing, was the Arsenal players approach.

Three of the six goals were shots from outside the penalty area, something that was very rare for Arsenal in past seasons, proving that indeed, this Arsenal side is learning from past mistakes.

Eduardo couldn't play because of injury, but seeing Walcott back was a breath of fresh air, and Bendtner scoring was a good thing too, however, he still needs to work on his finishing.

Arsenal have now closed the gap against the leaders, currently Manchester United, and they still have one game in hand.

At this moment in time, only a fool would consider the Gunners not good enough to be contenders for the title this season.
