Once again, Arsenal blow a lead. The most obvious explanation for this is would be a combination of their large number of younger players and a lack of leadership from their older players. But in truth it's the older players that can't keep their cool. Touré and Gallas had been struggling with Drogba all game, but were doing okay. Then Arsenal scored, and they just lost it, especially positionally, repeatedly defending the wrong side of Drogba or Anelka. This lead to chaos and goals.
