JJB GUNNED BY GUNNERS..



Arsenal came from behind to win 4-1 at Wigan Athletic and cement their grip on fourth place in the Premier League.

Mido had given the home side the lead at the JJB Stadium with an 18th-minute strike but second-half efforts from Theo Walcott and substitute Mikael Silvestre earned Arsene Wenger's side the lead.
Injury-time goals from Andrey Arshavin and
Alexandre Song gave the scoreline a flattering look and saw the Gunners extend their unbeaten run to 18 matches.

It was a Jekyll and Hyde performance from the Gunners who were lucky to be only one down at half-time and fortunate they had a full complement of players after young full-back Kieran Gibbs hauled back Antonio Valencia with the Wigan player seemingly having a clear sight of goal. The incident summed up a sluggish first-half from the Londoners with Wenger missing absent trio Manuel Almunia, William Gallas and Gael Clichy whilst leaving Robin van Persie, Samir Nasri and Emmanuel Adebayor on the bench.



The scorers for ARSENAL were :

1st goal: THEO WALCOTT.
2nd goal: MIKAEL SILVESTER.
3rd goal:ANDREY ARSHAVIN.
4th goal: ALEXANDER SONG.

The win at the JJB was a true mark of the Arsenals temprement,confidence and good play...
