premise: But any thoughts that this would herald a stroll for Arsenal proved unfounded as Rovers responded positively.
  The combination of Shefki Kuqi's physical presence and Morten Gamst Pedersen's deft footwork kept Sol Campbell and Pascal Cygan on their toes.
  Rovers' best early chance came when Lucas Neill's long ball bisected Campbell and Kolo Toure, but Bellamy had to stretch just that bit too far and his lob was off target.
  In the dying moments of the half Henry created another piece of history, clocking up his Highbury century when he stroked home Pires' through-ball.
  Shortly after the restart Kuqi and Steven Reid both went close for Rovers, and Bellamy's header inches wide gave Arsenal another scare.
   What caused Rovers' best early chance to come?
