I guessed many gooners were cursing Eboue during and after the match. To be honest, I don’t really hate Eboue but I was quite furious about his stupid behaviours. The first yellow card I thought was rather harsh, but the second yellow card was a fair decision by the ref. And as a professional Eboue should know the importance of restraining himself especially when you were already on one yellow card.
To be fair, before the sending off, Eboue was one of the better players on the pitch. He had been running into space, making himself available and bringing the ball to danger areas. He even had a goal disallowed! Just when I thought his performance should have finally change the fans’ opinions of him, he made that stupid retaliation on Modric and caused himself to be sent off!
So now, we are five points behind Chelsea (thanks to Hull City), and seven points behind Aston Villa. Its a pity that Arshavin didn’t get some playing time, and a bigger shame that we couldn’t beat Spurs, but at least we are still not that far away from the champions league spot.
