Football: Were Arsenal in shock against Birmingham, or are they feeling the pressure?
So Arsenal slipped up yesterday, drawing 2-2 in their Premier League fixture against Birmingham City.Was this related to the obvious shock among the team at seeing Eduardo's leg break, or is it a more general sign that they are starting to feel the pressure?
OK, so you could argue that Birmingham shouldn't have had their free kick or their penalty, but it was still an unconvincing display by the Gunners, who have been playing great football for much of the season.
I was intrigued by the behaviour of William Gallas, who took a hissy fit and kicked the hoardings, rather than contributing to attempts to defend the penalty (or any resulting open play). That's certainly not leadership, and will we see other cracks appearing as Manchester United (as we might expect) ratchet up the pressure in the coming weeks?

Sport and Business Psychologist, WarwickshireSpotlight on Sports and Fitness Professionals: The Nutritionists
Do you need nutritional advice or help? Well, here's an introduction to some of the nutritionists or professionals and students that are into nutrition, who are currently on iStadia.Why not connect with them - or if you are one of them, with each other.....? After all, we could all do with a nutritionist in our network these days.
Joji Chan is one of our longest standing members. She joined in May of last year. Goodness, it feels longer than that. Joji writes nice, concise articles on nutrition, and what she doesn't post here she puts on her own nutrition site, nutrition bits and bytes.
Say hello to Hannah Fox. She's actually a journalist with a magazine called Healthy Magazine. Hopefully it does what it says on the tin!
Sharon Martin is an Editor. Of what, I'm not sure. But I wonder if she and Hanna Know each other? Perhaps they should...
Ryan Irving is an Entrepreneur, based in Bali (Indonesia). His profile doesn't say what he's up to, but his primary interest is listed as nutrition. So, hello Ryan. Any surfers out there? Hook up with Ryan and he might invite you out to stay ;)
Mischa Wykerz is a student from London. Tom Birch is also a student from the UK (the Midlands). As they think about their next steps, maybe you are someone that could help them?
Last but not least, one of our more active posters, Ben Wilson. He's a personal trainer from London, and keen on metabolic typing (whatever that is - why not ask him?). He's also a pretty experienced networker and uses the web a lot, so he might be helpful to talk to for anyone interested in developing their online presence.
Check these iStadia members out. Connect with them. Encourage them to put more information in their profile. Say hello. Share your connections with them. Whatever you like, really.
If you are a nutritionist, or any other type of sports or fitness professional (or student) why not join them and sign up today?
