Prizes, thats what points mean, and today we are going for the Brucie Bonus

I am still smiling from a comment London made yesterday. The wise man had found out that our game against Sunderland was being shown live on Italia television and that all we have to do is find a good Italian bar, sit down with a few beers and watch the game.

Maybe if Thierry Henry was back with Arsenal , he could get himself out of a fix by helping the rest of the Arsenal crew dressing up and having a bit of fun with the kids at Great Ormond Street Hospital!

The four play-off games in the European qualification zone were all tight affairs with all left to play for in the second legs. France edged Ireland 1-0 at Croke Park in Dublin with a second half Nicolas Anelka goal.
In Lisbon, a Bruno Alves strike gives the Portuguese a slight advantage ahead of the return leg in Sarajevo. Click to continue reading...

Beginning Saturday, eight nations in Europe will compete for the last four remaining UEFA spots in the 2010 World Cup. Winners of the two leg playoffs will secure a spot in the World Cup draw on December 4, and the losers endure the pain of watching next summer's tournament from home.

by JAMES CURTIS With 10 minutes left on the clock and Arsenal 4-0 up at Molineux, a friend asked me who I thought was man of the match? Arsenal were scoring at will once again so you'd think it would be easy to pick a star man.

There were plenty of rewarding individual performances.

by JAMES CURTIS Ronald Koeman and his trusted staff accommodated the away dug-out last night wearing long black trench coats, black ties and matching leather gloves. As Arsenal pounded the Alkmaar goal one of his grey-haired men scribbled notes into small black book. It was like watching a scene from The Untouchables.

Andrey Arshavin is the man of the match against AZ Alkmaar in the Emirates Stadium yesterday. The Russian playmaker exuded class whenever he pushed forward and had provide assists to three of Arsenal's four goals. Arsenal beat AZ Alkmaar 4-1 in the Champions League game and are likely to qualify for the 2nd round of the competition. Click to continue reading...

Free-scoring Arsenal continued their dominance of Champions League Group H with a stunning 4-1 drubbing of AZ Alkmaar on Wednesday night.
The Gunners are in top spot and unbeaten in their group, and proved far too classy for the Dutch visitors at The Emirates, where skipper Cesc Fabregas bagged a brace and was joined on the scoresheet by Samir Nasri and Abou Diaby, who netted a sublime fourth of the night on 72 minutes after some flowing build-up play from Eduardo and Andrey Arshavin.

Arsenal midfielders Abou Diaby and Andrey Arshavin have both spoken out ahead of their Champions League clash with Dutch side AZ Alkmaar. Diaby has clamored for better defensive displays while Arshavin has stated his ambitions to win a Premier League and Champions League double.

"It is always good to win every game and stay in first place," said Diaby.

There is reason to be concerned.

If AZ Alkmaar was a foreshadowing, the Gunners did their best to not heed the warning. � Anyone who has watched this team over the past five years knew what was coming, both in the Netherlands and at Upton Park. � It's just too predictable.

Wenger got the team wrong last night. But first, it's important to recognise a couple of things.
Firstly, a draw away in Europe is never a bad result. We had six points on the board, now we have seven. So despite Alkmaar's last minute equaliser we're sure to go through. Which is more than can be said for Liverpool. Click to continue reading...

Arsenal beat Birmingham thanks to goals from Robin van Persie, Abou Diaby and Andrey Arshavin. Full report to come. Click to continue reading...

Back to League action tomorrow with the visit of Birmingham City. Let's hope the international break hasn't disrupted the momentum that was building before the players scattered for the World Cup qualifiers. We need three points in the bag. Manuel Almunia is said to be "50-50" for availability for selection.

One of the most remarkable things about this season so far apart from the painful fact that we trail the scum in the table, is the fact our central defender Vermaelen is top scorer. Now is the fact that we have had thirteen different players score goals in the Premier league a good thing or something to worry about?

by CARL ELDRIDGE� If ever there was a day when Arsenal news was thin on the ground, it had to be today. And so it is this morning that you'll find only the merest hint of anything Gunnerish in the papers. And believe me, I have looked. And looked. Had a cup of tea. Then looked again.

Then there it was.

I can still remember my first impression of Arsene Wenger when he took over as Arsenal manager back in 1996. He had the look of a geography teacher about him and came across as being very studious. A few of us in that Arsenal side were of an age where we were set in our ways, but also looking over our shoulders to see how long we had left in the game. Click to continue reading...

For various reasons, I had to pass on my ticket to the match on Sunday. Tragic, that is. Truly tragic. Because I missed one of our best performances for many a moon.
And it highlighted an important point. Keep Fabregas, Rosicky, Arshavin and RVP fit, and we have a brilliant team. A big, fat 6 in the 'for' column is testament to this. Click to continue reading...

In less than 12 months, Russian midfielder Andrey Arshavin became a favourite amongst Arsenal supporters with the 28-year old a key in Arsenal's last season's quest for a Champions League spot.

Speaking about Arshavin, Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger highlighted the intelligence of the player and the something extra he brings to the squad.

I came in from the match last night, coughing up phlegm and regretting my attendance, to my traditional 'just returned from the football' conversation with my mother, where she feigns interest in my evening out.

by CARL ELDRIDGE Arsene Wenger might get one or two quizzical gawps if he should take a trolley round the Waitrose near his Barnet home after the Arsenal saw of Olympiacos with a 2-0 Champions League triumph at the Emirates last night.

The Game

Having escaped an early first game scare away at Standard Liege, the Gunners will face Greek leaders Olympiacos in today's Champions League game. Nicklas Bendtner, Theo Walcott and Denilson, together with Samir Nasri and Manuel Almunia are all ruled out of the game.

That headline is somewhat contrived. But it does underscore an important point: a year ago, Arsenal wouldn't have won 1-0 yesterday. Mr. Wenger often says the team is growing but year-on-year between 07-08 and 08-09 it seemed to have gone backwards not forwards. We were toothless in midfield and conceding stupid goals.

North meets West in this London derby.

Arsenal's Andrey Arshavin returns after three games out with injury while Theo Walcott could feature in his first game of the season for the Gunners.
But Manuel Almunia is still out with a chest infection so Vito Mannone is likely to deputise in goal again.
