Arsenal vs West Brom match report‏

Arsenal beat West brom 3-0.First goal came with Aaron Ramsey managing to pick the lock, a sumptuous through ball blindsiding left-back Billy Jones, leaving Theo Walcott a clear run at goal from the right.He tried to shoot in between the legs of Ben Foster, but it caught the goalkeeper’s shins, rebounding to Robin van Persie six yards out. Van Persie made no mistake. Strikers with 28 goals in 27 Premier League games tend not to, and this was his 29th, probably the easiest of them all. Next goa Van Persie latched on to Alex Song’s diagonal ball and cut the ball back from the right byline. Gervinho had timed his run too early at the near post, but the ball rolled across the area for Thomas Vermaelen, who slammed it home scoring his first goal of the season. West Brom had their best chance of the game when Chris Brunt volleyed the ball  well over from the edge of the penalty area, Somen Tchoyi shooting straight at Wojciech Szczesny when well-positioned, Steven Reid’s header from a corner forcing a routine save.But Arsenal were able to pick them off, and made a third goal, Van Persie played it right to Tomas Rosicky, who slipped it back into the path of Van Persie. The Dutcman held the ball up strongly before laying it back to Mikel Arteta, Arteta picked his spot and curled the ball past Foster from 18 yards, scoring his first goal at the Emirates ! Well a decent game not even close to the intensity of last week but a good 3 pointer, and I'm proud of the clean sheet. Well done Gunners. International break and then We face Norwich.                                                                                                                                              Laters the Ghost....
