Arsenal: What can the matter be?

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Oh Arsenal, what can the matter be?
2-1 by Everton,
‘Ickle Lad Rooney broke your hearts.
2-1 by Auxerre,
The French mocked thy holy Highbury.
Now 2-1 by Blackburn,
Thanks to Edu’s comedy of error.
Alas!
Losing is such sweet sorrow.

Notes

Gleefully materialized after Arsenal’s third straight defeat at the hands of Blackburn, which coincided with Liverpool’s win over Tottenham. Shame that Arsene Wenger won’t get to have his ardent wish of an unbeaten season. C’est La Vie!
