This week, American businessman, billionaire, and possible future owner of the Los Angeles
Dodgers Stan Kroenke flew into London in order to publicly express his full support of Arsene
Wenger. Arsenal's board of directors has had some interesting topics to discuss, which include, but
are certainly not limited to: Robin van Persie's future with the club, Arsene Wenger's future with
the club, and the monies to be spent this coming summer all of which impact public perception of
Wenger in one way or another.
In our best performance this year we humiliated a struggling Blackburn Rovers with our
superior attacking display.
The beginning of this article was written before our win over Blackburn Rovers yesterday.
Here we are, now our fourth game without another win in the Premier league, and the best we
could do was a nil-nil draw.
Here we are on the verge of our 4th round FA Cup tie with Aston Villa, and yet I find
myself still thinking about the substitution of Oxlade-Chamberlin in last weeks 2-1 loss to
Manchester United.
With the way Wenger was talking it makes me wonder if he is getting his apologies, or should I
say his press conference story ready should we lose today against Alex Mc Leish's Aston Villa.
For the first time in five years we have now lost three Premiership matches in a
row.
I am starting this story now Tuesday evening the 17th where the thoughts of last nights radio
conversation on Talksports Drivetime between Adrian Durham and Ray Parlour are still fresh in my
mind.
Robin Van Persie grabbed all the headlines after his two goals gave the Arsenal a 2-1 win at
Norwich and rightly so. Arsene Wenger also managed to garner quite a few column inches in the wake
of the Premier League victory after his interview with L'Equipe in which he was less than
convincing when it came to affirming his Arsenal future.
Arsenal take on Bolton at the Emirates, and despite a 3-1 win by a second XI over Shrewsbury in
the Carling Cup on Tuesday, the Wenger Boys still have plenty of points to prove.
Arsenal are short priced favourites with all bookmakers for their game against Bolton, but once
again Unibet offer you the very biggest odds on the planet!
Arsenal have agreed terms for Samir Nasri to move to Manchester City.
The Frenchman has been omitted from Arsenal's squad that are flying out this afternoon, for
tomorrow's crucial Champions League qualifying match gainst Udinese.
Instead, the 24-year old will now travel north for a medical and is expected to sign in a deal
worth around £24m.
Despite the miserably poor weather in North London yesterday, Arsenal were still able to host an
open training session for fans at Emirates Stadium, as part of the traditional Member's Day.
Arsenal were also set to take the new official squad photo, but a downpour of rain prevented the
club from doing so.
