Arsenal squandered the chance to go top of the pack at
Christmas as they played out a dreadful stalemate with
organised London rivals Chelsea at the Emirates.The
result means Liverpool will be top at Christmas before
their crucial Boxing Day clash with Manchester
City.Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard came the closest to
breaking the deadlock as his volley struck the woodwork
after an excellent Eden Hazard chip created the
opening.As Mike Dean blew the final whistle, boos and
chants of Boring, Boring Chelsea rang out at the
Emirates, braves-jersey/jackie-robinson-jersey">Jackie Robinson
Jersey which adequately summed up Mourinhos
tactics. The adept coach came for a point and deservedly
got one, leaving the Blues in a strong position ahead of
two decisive home Premier League meetings with Swansea
City and Liverpool. Chelsea crowded the midfield, were
solid defensively and looked dangerous on the counter-
attack, refusing Arsenal the chance to play.
However

Arsene Wenger will feel hard done by after two
contentious decisions went against his side. John Obi
Mikel could have easily seen red for a crushing 50/50
challenge with Mikel Arteta and in the same sequence of
play, Mike Dean correctly dismi sed Arsenals penalty
claims when Theo Walcott , who was then on his descend to
the slick Emirates pitch, easily went down under the
shadow of Chelseas Brazilian midfielder Willian.Mourinho,
who felt John Obi Mikel should not have been sent off for
his challenge on Mikel Arteta, laughed off the
accusations, claiming Arsenals foreign players like to
cry about referee decisions ; You know, they like to cry.
Thats tradition.But I prefer to say, and I was telling it
to the fourth official, that English people Frank
Lampard, for example would never provoke a situation
like that.Players from other countries, especially some
countries, have that in their blood if you have a contact
or the opponent was aggre sive.Foreign

players are bringing lots of good things. They come here
because they are talented. But I prefer English blood in
football. English blood in this situation is: Come on,
lets go.Today it was important not to lose. But it
wouldnt have been a big surprise if we had won. Arsenal
showed a lot of frustration. But we werent aggre sive,
sharp enough to score a goal.And Mourinho taunted the
Arsenal fans who chanted Boring Jose and added: I agree.
I played against them 10 times and I never lost. Funny,
funny Jose? 10 times they dont win once.In

what was a niggly, me sy affair, the first half finally
burst into life when Frank Lampard struck the woodwork
with a powerful volley, the opening courtesy of a
creative and imaginative flick from Eden Hazard, who once
again produced an off-colour performance under the
Emirates floodlights.Controversial decisions from Mike
Dean rounded off 45 minutes of which were devoid of the
anticipation the fixture generated ahead of kick-off.With
Chelseas introductions of Oscar and Andre Schurrle unable
to make an impact, Olivier Giroud squandered the chance
to earn Arsenal victory as a combination of Petr Cech and
John Terry, who has played every second of Premier League
action this season, kept out the Frenchman while Kieran
Gibbs continued to cause Ivanovic all sorts of havoc.The
stalemate will be viewed as two points dropped in the
Arsenal camp, who were hoping to end a faltering run
evoked by their consecutive defeats at the hands of
Napoli and Manchester City. Meanwhile, Chelsea will see
the point as their cue to stay in the title race ahead of
two decisive festive home fixtures against Swansea and
Liverpool. What is sure is, with only a point seperating
the top five and
jersey/preston-tucker-jersey">Preston Tucker Jersey
with Tottenham and Man Utd seeming revived, the festive
period will be crucial for the London heavy-weights.
