“Fabregas looking left….. this is Abou Diaby…tall, rangy…and going for goal…. OOOHHHH - What an absolute screamer! Abou Diaby! Arsenal 1, Derby County 0. A glorious strike! Found in space, cut inside worked the yard more in space and thumped it!”

Jonathan Pearce

Abou Diaby's first goal of the season, which was best described as an "absolute screamer" by Pearce. The goal, which was followed by an Adebayor hat-trick and a Fabregas shot, helped cement Arsenal's position at the top of the Premier League summit in early September 2007.

“Lampard……Drogba wanting it through the middle…. Brilliant pass…. Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant. Sheer quality, the delivery from Lampard. Drogba's rich vain in goal scoring form continues.”

Jonathan Pearce

Didier Drogba's exquisite goal against Manchester City at Stamford Bridge in October 2007.

“Denilson……on to Adebayor; great chest trap….. Adebayor - on a hat trick…. AND GETS IT! And that was a very special goal. Magnificent….. it was all about the first touch. Hit high…look at the jump - Magnificent. Then the composure and a low bent finish. A hat trick for Emmanuel Adebayor. Magnificent…. Majestic; then picked himself up, little shimmy…. side foot finish - Adebayor has three, Arsenal have five. Derby have conceded nine goals in two games in north London this season.”

Jonathan Pearce
