In the last league game, Arsenal scored four goals, three of which were related to Arshavin. In this round against a strong rival Liverpool, he simply took charge of all the goals. The first goal was made possible by the perfect cooperation between Nasri and Fabregas for the assist. But Arshavin was right there in the center of the penalty area, accurately seizing the chance to shoot and allowing the Gunners, who were otherwise completely on the back foot, to take an unexpected lead. At that time, however, Bendtner seemed to have vanished.
