I did not see (much of) it

WOLVES 1 ARSENAL 4

I’M STILL abroad and with TV unable to do the trick, I hoped the internet might come up trumps with watching last night’s game.

Alas, but for ten seconds of first half action, the minutes 49-55 and 79 til 90, I did not see anything.

I couldn’t help thinking that whoever was going to so much effort to stop me from seeing the match might be better employed developing a fairly priced, entirely legitimate, high quality and reliable official stream of the game. For a modest sum (which in my mind is the equivalent of what it would cost for a drink in either half if I’d watched it in a pub), I’d have gladly forked out.

But it wasn’t to be.

So what did I think? Ignore what some match reports said: there was nothing lucky whatsoever about the opener. A decent corner and a poacher supreme pressuring the defender a yard out. What did they expect to happen?

The second DID look lucky. It’s hard to know where Eduardo’s chip was going but it certainly seemed to only help us. I loved Ramsey bawling out his more senior colleague after he failed to deliver the one-two. Good to see really.

The third was lovely, the fourth Arshavinesque, which was apt given the scorer.

I did see their goal live and called it correctly as the corner came in. Mildly irritating.

So, our phenomenal goalscoring run continues. Also bizarrely it is also apparently the case that we are yet to score in the first 15 minutes all season.

How odd.

So what did you make of the game I missed?
