The main photo shows Didier Drogba celebrating after his rather fortuitous goal had put Chelsea 1-0 ahead and on
their way to victory against Arsenal. It was the first time in a decade that Chelsea had beaten Arsenal in the league,
their last win coming back in September 1995 when Mark Hughes scored the only goal of the game.
The inset pictures are also from the Arsenal game. Photo George Herringshaw. ©
