Arsene Wenger has made a fresh move for St Etienne midfielder Blaise Matuidi after fearing Cesc Fabregas is facing an injury lay-off.

Arsenal captain Fabregas, 22, faces a race to be fit for Saturday's trip to Manchester United and could be out for up to three weeks with a hamstring injury.

Hello people hope you all are having good days without any Arsenal news because it has been very boring for a few days on the Arsenal front, due to the international breaks no doubt. But before I go into that there is some positive news regarding Walcott:

The official website has said he is due to back after this weeks international break versus Croatia but in my opinion I doubt he will figure against Man City, seeming the importance of the game and risking him would not be worth it.

Hello people, I am still feeling bad over our loss to Man City yesterday and this has left me thinking about our current situation as a whole. I have already, a few weeks ago voiced my feelings over Wenger and how he should of and needed buy, and how he didn't so today I am going to tell you what will be of Arsenal next year, so read on:

The overall result of this season when it ends:

In the league we will finish fourth with either Man City or Liverpool being a close 5th.

Sky Sports Sources understand Manchester City are in talks with Arsenal over the possible signing of striker Emmanuel Adebayor.

Adebayor has been linked with a move away from Arsenal this summer, with a number of European clubs said to be interested in his services.

But the Togo international's future looked to be settled after his agent recently stated he would be staying at Emirates Stadium.

Mexico squeezed past Costa Rica on penalties on Thursday to set up a CONCACAF Gold Cup final against its archrival, the United States.

A rampant Gunners destroyed an inept Everton outfit all goals can be viewed here my short blog today is to confirm what I have felt about the performance of this team from pre-season until this fantastic result yesterday. The team's momentum from last season is there. But there is a great difference which should give us all confidence for Arsenal being able to achieve better than last season.

90 mins And that's it! After an enthralling second-half, the game comes to an end. Manchester City 4-2 Arsenal
89 mins FOUR minutes of stoppage time
89 mins Robin van Persie has hit the post! That would have made things interesting!

Hello people, hope your enjoying your weekend thus far, and are anticipating a good win over Blackburn tomorrow. I think the team is performing well but we have to be consistent this season which wasn't the case last season, to the point where we had so many 0-0 draws in a row it was unbelievable.

Yesterday's game was interesting for a variety of reasons. The games after an International break usually herald the banana skin fixtures, with either injuries or jet lagged stars contributing to upsets, and Only Man United and Arsenal managed to evade the slip up, with Liverpool and incredibly Chelsea losing the initiative.

Uefa Champions League, Semi-final first leg
Venue: Old Trafford Date: Wednesday, 29 April Kick-off: 1945 BST
Coverage: Sky Sports 2 and Radio 5 live

Manchester United will be missing defender Gary Neville for Wednesday's Champions League semi-final first leg.

Here are the highlights of the final pre-season gaem in Austria which saw us beat Hannover 96 1-0. Fabregas connected onto a ball from Van Persie rounded the keeper then tapped in for the only goal of the game.

I have to say I'm quite liking Arsenal's current situation; the team is playign really well and everyone off the bench also fits in exceptionally, which is great and the first time I believe this in a while! To add to this the media are not rating us this may be a bit down heartening for the players but there is currently no pressure on them, unlike Chelsea Man Utd and Liverpool.

Disappointed.....
