(查爾頓上半場沒有一次射門)


Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger:
"We dominated the game. We scored early on and sometimes it became too
easy for us.
我們很快得分並且掌握了整場比賽的優勢，有時候甚至感覺太容易了

"But the confidence is back in the team and we have found the way we want
to play the game.
球隊的信心正在恢復，我們已經找到比賽的節奏

"It is enjoyable to see how quickly the young players have improved and
how strong they look. I am very, very happy for them and for the club."
看到小槍手們快速成長真是件令人欣慰的事，我非常非常為他們，也為球隊感到高興


Charlton boss Alan Curbishley:
"We gave a typical performance from our recent visits to Highbury - and
Arsenal's performance was typical for them.
我們的表現就像以往造訪海布里一樣，槍手們的表現也跟以往相似

"We found ourselves 2-0 down quickly and you are not going to come back
from that against a side as good as them - and especially the way they
were playing.
我們很快就發覺自己2-0落後，面對這樣一支球隊你很難從落後兩球的泥沼中翻身

"Some of the football Arsenal played in the first half, we had no chance
of living with it and I don't think a lot of clubs would have."
我們無法抵擋阿森納上半場的攻勢，我相信大部分球隊也辦不到
