...Patrick Vieira and Dennis Wise were sent off as the red mist descended on Highbury for the second time in five days, overshadowing a fine performance by Arsenal.

The pair were dismissed by referee Andy D'Urso for a 60th minute spat, following Damien Delaney's challenge on Robert Pires, meaning that there have now been six red cards in the Gunners' first three games this season.

And to think we let him go for £50,000:(

Just caught that tackle on tv too - think Damian just came straight thru Pires?

Call me sick if you like but I always like to see a new young player get stuck in. I remember when Carey played (maybe his 1st game) in Dalymount against Bohs last year, chased the winger down in front of the bohs support & cynically chopped him down. Was good to see as City were a bit stretched in the middle. IMO made him out as a good prospect for the future & showed he wasn't too naive :D

And boy did he look out of his depth, running about like that. He actually got the "One To Watch" for Leicester City in the Times pre-season thing, but on Saturdays form, it's hard to imagine.
