All Arsenal fans have been acutely aware of the fact that our midfield dynamo has been missing for
the whole season so far. Jack Wilshere was overplayed last season, whether due to necessity or
carelessness is still up for debate, and was run into the red zone. He then picked up a stress
facture is [.
This game was definitely a big one for Arsenal. This would set the tone for a monumental
season-defining week for the Gunners. There was a lot of build up to the game simply because of its
magnitude as well this fixture occurring twice in two weeks. The first half saw good possession by
the Gunners [.
This season has seen the emergence of Wojciech Szczesny as the undisputed no.1 at Arsenal, and for
the first time since the departure of the Invincibe Jens Lehmann, we have a world-class keeper in
our squad. But do we have a decent enough deputy to the young shot-stopper? The answer is quite
simply a big [.
Arsenal have definitely missed Kieran Gibbs. He isn't Arsenal's best Left-Back, personally I
believe Santos is, but what a refreshing idea to actually have a LB in the LB position! However
there are still some problems with the guy that needs to be sorted out... Gibbs has a lot of
potential. Wenger wouldn't have him [.
Arshavin in recent weeks has become a victim of both the media and all of us Arsenal fans for his
defensive mishap which gifted Manchester United with a undeserved win at the Emirates. I admit I
was thoroughly disappointed with his performance but I still expect him to do something crucial for
us in our [.
That 7-1 win was needed, that's for sure. On the back of three losses and a draw, Arsenal had to
get a win now or our hopes for Champions league football would be too far away to catch. This
positivity of the result was also compounded by the draws of the other big clubs. All [...]
We have turned a corner to a certain extent in terms of defending. With the likes of Vermaelan,
Koscielny, Mertesacker filling the heart of our defence we have added a certain solidarity to our
defending. I'm not saying it's been completely fixed, it hasn't, however, I for one feel like we
can finally hold onto [.
After that emphatic drubbing of Blackburn Rovers, Arsenal face a tricky trip to the Stadium of
Light to face a rejuvenated Sunderland side who are currently eighth in the table, just seven
points behind Arsenal. Sunderland have been in great form since the arrival of new boss Martin
O'Neil and one could assume that the [.

Arsene Wenger may not have won a trophy for seven years at Arsenal, but his expertise at making
youngsters excel at the game has not gone unnoticed by the world. Some of the biggest names in
football understand that Wenger is a massive motivator that makes ordinary players punch above
their weight. There have been [.
The way the transfer window in the summer of 2011 at Arsenal was handled, let alone this
January,...

Arsenal have now gone four League games without a win, but that run could pale into insignificance
if the Gunners don't start improving very quickly. Arsenal may have an "easy" home game this
weekend against Blackburn, but if the DON'T win it may be hard to forecast where the next win will
come from as [.
There are rumours that Arsene Wenger is considering giving Robin Van Persie a break this weekend
against Blackburn to try and freshen him up for the three upcoming away games against Sunderland,
AC Milan and (probably) Sunderland again. Van Persie has scored 21 goals in 23 games this season,
but his shooting hasn't been quite [.
Is Wenger a Tyrant? And How do we Compare to Spurs? by Waleed So we've lost three in a row now.
Pretty awful. I'm a Wenger man through and through but you've got to criticize at this point,
you've got to ask questions. We can all agree the personal abuse is not acceptable, and so [...]
Greetings all. It has been quite some time since my last post so, naturally, a number of topics
have arose, which I would like to comment on. However, this could take several thousand words so
I'll try to be selective and condense. There is an obvious topic to start on; and that is,
obviously, the [.
Arsene is still the man for the job and I'll tell you why... by Kashmaster These last few weeks
have tested the patience of even the most faithful Arsenal fans. We have suffered our third
successive league defeat at the hands of our most bitter rivals during the Premier League era. Once
again there have [.
I can officially confirm that Count Wenger has no reflection! by Adam Kemp Arsene Wenger reminds me
of a ghoulish Count Dracula as his management skills demonstrate that he has no reflection. Count
Wenger is a parasite sucking the blood from brainwashed despondent fans that still refuse to
believe he is a complete waste of [.

The Swiss centre-back Johann Djourou has been at Arsenal for many years, and it was hoped that he
would grow into a world-class centre-back, but after seven years at the club (He's 25 now) he is
still nothing but a bit part-player at the Emirates. He played a record 22 games for Arsenal last
season, [.
I guess everyone has seen the yearly rumours linking Arsene Wenger with a move to Real Madrid,
after it has been revealed that Jose Mourinho is not getting on very well with his players, and he
was even (like Wenger) abused by the Real Madrid fans despite his team being five points clear of
Barcelona [.
Arsene Wenger keeps going on about he will only ever spend money in the transfer window if he can
find "super-quality" players or "better than we already have". Well I personally think that it
would be VERY easy to find players that are better than most of our current squad! So I found this
excellent [.
Who Could Follow Le Prof? by Lorenzo Sallows I hate to seem presumptuous but the question raised is
a valid one. After the worst season in many years, questions are being asked and Arsene is not the
man to answer them. Do NOT think for one minute I am jumping on the back of [...]
Unfair on Arshavin, Unfair on Arsenal FC (By S.H) The home stadium erupted in loud BOOS in protest
over Wenger‘s decision to substitute Oxlade-Chamberlain for Andrey Arshavin. Even Robin van
Persie appeared to show his dissent over the manager's decision. The Ox had played a marvellous
game, and I too, was disappointed to see him [.
The Oxlade/Arshavin substitution IMO was based on logic and not emotion/sentiment/psychology; it
was based on ideal conditions and not real world conditions. IMO Arsene is very theoretical/logical
in his decision making. Oxlade was one of Arsenal best players on the day but it was his debut.
Wing play is extremely hard work at the top [.
Okay well we certainly all know that Arsene Wenger made a great error in replacing The Ox with
Andrei Arshavin yesterday, but the fact is that he wanted Arsenal to win the game, and at 1-1 with
15 minutes to go he had to try and refresh his attacking options. Okay lets look at the [...]
Arsene Wenger is the most ignorant manager in the Premier League which has been the sole catalyst
for the severe lack of success on the pitch. The performance against Manchester United demonstrates
some valid points about the inefficient management style of Wenger. He is a very stubborn man and
sticks to some philosophies that will [.
I No Longer Know The Arsenal Team I Support by Lorenzo Sallows. Another defeat. Three back to back
losses and we continue to drift in limbo, detached from the top four, hopelessly trying to sustain
a top half table finish. All but a single goal mustered from a poor display leads us neatly back to
[..
No Sell No Buy (By S.H) With 11 days left in the Winter transfer season, Arsenal still haven't
signed anyone. Arsene Wenger, as we know, is verbally parsimonious and enigmatic about recruitment.
You'd never beat him in a board game of "Guess Who." There are a plethora of Arsenal transfer
rumours, linking a myriad of [.
Is The Board To Blame? By Lorenzo Sallows Growing concerns are manifesting themselves amongst us
Gunners and these are stemming from the lack of communication we are receiving from the Arsenal
Board. We pay premium prices for our season tickets, we pack pubs and bars to catch a glimpse of
the team we adore, we [.
Arsenal FC: Where EXACTLY Are We Now? by Lorenzo Sallows Lying 5th In the Barclays Premier League,
level on points with a distinctly average Newcastle United outfit, this season has been one of
marked disappointed and frustration for all those who support Arsenal. Goals have become a
priceless commodity with only Robin van Persie willingly [.
I am finding it very hard to come to terms with the fact that one of the top men on the board of
Arsenal football Club is not bothered whether Arsenal qualify for the Champions League or not, and
I am shocked by the implications of Peter Hill-Wood's words. Most Arsenal fans are aware that [...]
Arsenal's inability to hold on to Cesc Fabregas, Gael Clichy and Samir Nasri last summer will be
repeated this year with Robin Van Persie, Theo Walcott and Alex Song all joining the exodus. This
is a simple by-product of Arsenal's failure to show ambition to win trophies by investing in top
class players.
Optimistic Arsenal throw more points away in complacent fashion! by Adam Kemp As you are aware I
have been very quiet the past couple of months as I decided to give the readers a break from my
usual doom and gloom pessimism surrounding Arsenal FC. I have patiently watched our performance
over the past couple [.
In Arsenal's last four League games the Gunners have scored the first goal of the game, but only
against QPR did they manage to hang on for a 1-0 and even then they didn't do it comfortably.
Aganist Wolves at home you would have expected the Gunners to kick on after taking the lead in
[...]
There is not much that Kalou cannot do. He scores late goals from headers because he has
played...

We all knew that things were bad regarding the injuries to the Arsenal defence, but I'm not sure
that everybody knows exactly how bad it is right now. We all knew that Thomas Vermaelen, Bacary
Sagna, Kieran Gibbs, Andre Santos and Carl Jenkinson were definitely not going to be in the team,
but now it's [.
Arsene Wenger brought in Ju-Young Park from Monaco this summer as competition for the mis-firing
Marouane Chamakh, and was convinced he would be a great addition to the Arsenal squad. Wenger said
on his arrival: "We are delighted to have signed Ju. He will add true quality to our attacking
forces and will be a [.
The Arsenal legend Patrick Vieira, who was the captain of the famous Invincibles and scored the
penalty that won Arsenal their last trophy in 2005, has been speaking about why he decided to work
for Man City rather than Arsenal when he retired from playing last summer. He was generally reviled
by Arsenal fans when [.
