18.09 – Arsenal 2-1 Chelsea (Edu, Henry)

£100m eh?

10.31 – Morning has broken, and it feels like my back has too. Stupid sleeping like a contortionist.

A quick pre-game round up. AW has called for more drug testing in football. “I think, deeply, that the football authorities have a responsibility to keep the game clean. At the moment, they are not doing that, either in England or Europe.”

There’s a nice piece about Edu in the Indo. For the second month running, Kolo Toure has won arsenal.com’s player of the month award. Well done K-Lo, keep it up. Robert Pires revealed he rejected a move to Chelsea during the summer. Jermaine Pennant’s loan spell at Leeds is set to be extended unless we’re ‘decimated’ with injuries and suspensions. Thierry Henry on Chelsea and other stuff.

In team news, Dennis Bergkamp returns and could start, with Sylvain Wiltord on the right hand side of midfield. Freddie Ljungberg is still out though, and Martin Keown has a calf problem.

More later.
