Robin Van Persie fell one short of Alan Shearer's all time record for Premiership goals scored in a calendar year, yet broke Thierry Henry's club record as the Dutchman scored yet another crucial winner.Positives:
3 more points as we overtook Vilas Boas' stuttering Chelsea side in the race for 4th. Van Persie was clinical once more, whilst our injury ravenged defence stood strong in the face of adversity.
Negatives:
Despite growing in confidence and ability season after season, Theo Walcott's miss when clean through on goal early in the second half was evidence that the Newbury born winger is not yet the finished article.
Conclusion:
Just three months ago, we were 18th. Now, we have finally gatecrashed the top four! Let's hope it stays that way from now until May.
