Arsenal traveled north to face a Sunderland club that has seen a resurgence since installing
Martin O'Neil as their manager and it took a two late goal by impact substitutes to come away with
the three points. Keep reading for all the glorious heart-stopping action.
Arsene Wenger chose to start the same squad that demolished Blackburn last week with the
exception of Francis Coquelin as Bacary Sagna was drafted in for his 2nd start since his broken
leg.
When I woke up bleary-eyed and desperate of coffee this morning my first thought was "Why do I
wake up so early for the impending doom that is Arsenal?" I turned my TV on and was greeted by the
image of Arsene Wenger walking onto the pitch and a great view of the skyline above the Emirates
Stadium, leading me to think, "At least it looks beautiful out there.
This January's Arsenal transfer news was relatively quiet at the Emirates Stadium, with Thierry
Henry returning to the club on loan from New York Red Bulls and German teenager Thomas Eisfeld
arriving from Borussia Dortmund for a modest fee.
However, activity has not always been this sedate at Arsenal, with Arsene Wenger making some
surprising and at times, blockbuster signings in January.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has alleviated concerns about Arsenal's perennially high injury
list, stating that it is about to shorten in the coming days.
Goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski made a long-awaited return in the goal during yesterday evening's
3-2 FA Cup win at home to Aston Villa and Wenger believes that midfielders Abou Diaby and Jack
Wilshere are also recovering better than expected.
It seems that things are looking a bit brighter for Arsene Wenger with news that a few Arsenal
players are back in contention after recovering from injury. Kieran Gibbs is not back yet, but
Wenger is very happy to know that Bacary Sagna's return will mean that the Gunners have at least
one true full-back [.
Morning all.
We'd best start with the bad news this morning and that's Jack Wilshere. He's suffered a 'little
setback' according to Arsene Wenger and although the manager was obviously trying to play it down a
bit, saying he couldn't put a timeframe on it because Jack has to see consultants, the fear is that
this could keep him out for at least 6-8 weeks, if not the rest of the season.
The long substitution
It's finally confirmed, the news that we did not want to hear. That Jack Wilshere has had a
setback and would not be available in the date that we initially had hoped he would be back for. AC
Milan's games were touted as his return period but that will now have to be extended.
There are a number of indications from the Arsenal camp that there won't be any major signings
arriving at the Emirates Stadium for the remainder of the winder transfer window.
For starters, manager Arsene Wenger has made it clear that the return of Bacary Sagna and Kieran
Gibbs to full training diminishes the need to seek a new full-back.

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 [.

A bit of a break before the Monday FA Cup third round tie against Leeds United. After a hectic
last one week of football, it's a welcomed breather for the team. 7 out of 12 points from our last
4 games is not ideal but it isn't bad either. Could've been more had the team not collapse in the
last part of the Fulham game.

Losing to Fulham to start 2012 hurt but it has hopefully served as a wakeup call for Arsene
Wenger that his side cannot continue to challenge for the top four without recognised fullbacks.
The regulars are out injured and have been for a considerable time. Kieran Gibbs, Andre Santos and
Carl Jenkinson are on the treatment table for the foreseeable future so now the January transfer
window is open, Wenger must invest.
It seems to be a yearly occurence that Arsenal have a run of injuries to defenders. Last season it
was the centre-backs and now it is the full-backs that have dropped like flies. On the 2nd October
Bacary Sagna was lost to an ankle injury and luckily Wenger had brought in the young Carl Jenkinson

A Belgian welcomed back?
Big news just one and a half day before the transfer window reopens. According to Matt Law of
the Daily Express, Thierry Henry has agreed to a 2 month loan deal with Arsenal. The number 12 is
on the offing and the record club goalscorer will once again put on the famous read and white
jersey.

Injury problems and also the upcoming African Cup most likely will force Arsene Wenger make some
activity in the January transfer market especially in covering the full back and striker
positions.
Arsenal are set to lose Gervinho along with Marouane Chamakh for the African Cup, while their
main full backs such as Bacary Sagna, Kieran Gibbs, Andre Santos and Carl Jenkinson are all
injured.
Laurent Koscielny has no problem helping ease Arsenal's injury crisis by playing at full-back,
claiminghis friends have grown so accustomed to seeing him in the position that they have started
calling him the "white Cafu".
Arsenal head to Aston Villa without any recognised full-backs after a spate of injuries denied
Arsene Wenger the services of Kieran Gibbs, Andre Santos, Bacary Sagna and Carl Jenkinson.

There's been a dearth of Adorkable activity on this site since Arsene Wenger put Project Kidling
on the backburner in favour of pursuing trophies. Now that that's over, Theo Walcott, Wojciech
Szczęsny and Bacary Sagna have been given special dispensation to don antlers and shiny red noses
for this clip.
Abel Xavier foi eleito, por 23 dos 63 leitores que participaram na última votação, como o
jogador com o penteado mais bizarro da história do futebol. Formado no Sporting e Estrela da
Amadora, Abel Xavier, hoje Faisal após a conversão ao Islamismo, conheceu um dos pontos mais

três épocas.
Team news, match facts and quotes ahead of the Champions League Group F fixture between Arsenal
and Valencia at Emirates Stadium.
TEAM NEWS
Thomas Vermaelen and Carl Jenkinson are both fit to start. Marouane Chamakh has suffered a
knee injury and is not fit, but Yossi Benayoun is available again after sitting out Saturday's
win over Chelsea due to the terms of his loan deal.
With Bacary Sagna and Carl Jenkinson both out injured, centre-back Johan Djourou is ready to take
over on the right wing, in the next game, for the Gunners. Speaking after last Wednesday's
Champions League win against ...
Arsenal will tomorrow face Stoke City at home with some injury concerns as both Bacary Sagna and
Carl Jenkinson are out injured. Speaking in his pre-match press conference, manager Arsene Wenger
confirmed that 19-year old Jenkinson ...
Results, regardless of performances, are often the hallmarks of champions. Time and time again,
the best sides have been able to grind out wins even in the face of formidable adversaries and
unlikely circumstances.
Now, the Arsenal performance Tuesday night at the Stade Velodrome was far from subpar, but in a
fairly even match, Aaron Ramsey's strike at the death brings all three points back to North London,
and for the first time it seems that Arsene Wenger's side, who have suffered this year from media
criticism and a string of very poor results, may have the ability to achieve something this year
and in the future, and at the least remain in the Champions League spots.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed that vice-captain Thomas Vermaelen has returned to
training and is set to make his return in a fortnight.
Vermaelen was last seen during the Gunners' 2-1 UEFA Champions League win over Udinese in August
but following an Achilles injury that required surgery, he has been watching from the sidelines as
the team's defense continues to struggle.
Morning chums!
Football returns tomorrow. For some. The rest of us have to wait until Sunday to sit around
hungover and watch Arsenal, but it's coming. And with that comes the news. The life-blood of this
very site. Stuff about Arsenal. It's marvelous. Arsene Wenger has been talking about various things
and we can pore over every word, examing them, analysing them, and seeking to be offended at the
slightest little thing.
The boy's time has come, let's give him a little help
If you listen to any football pundits or experts out there (ones in the British game anyway),
they will tell you that the catalyst to a championship (Premier League, if you like) winning side
is one with the meanest of defence as the backbone.
Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna believes that 19-year old Carl Jenkinson will soon show that he will
become one of the best defenders in the squad. The Frenchman underwent surgery this week and is
expected to be ...
As league action takes a break this coming weekend and into the new week, more and more shocking
surprises are emerging from team camps all round Europe. After England coach dramatically left out
established players Rio Ferdinand and Steven Gerrard, his French counter part Laurent Blanc will
have to look for other attacking options as he 2 main men are out injured.

Video highlights and reaction
I think it's fair to say that when things are going badly for a football club, any bits of luck
you get seem to reflect that. If you're flying high you get the bounce and deflections, the
referee's mistakes work in your favour, and the opponents end up injured.
Arsene Wenger has acknowledged that a deficit of 12 points to the league leaders after only
seven matches this season has prompted his men to reevaluate their title topes.
Despite putting up a fight in their 2-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, the Gunners did not impress
at White Hart Lane as only Francis Coquelin, Alex Song, and goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny made a
case to be on the winning team.
Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has warned Olympiakos that breaking the Gunners' long-standing
unbeaten streak at home will be an uphill task for the Greek giants.
Arsene Wenger has led the Gunners through a brilliant spell during which they have gone
undefeated at home during the Group Stage since 2003 and Ramsey believes that the squad can take
tremendous confidence from playing at the Emirates.
Arsene Wenger asked for more time for his back four to jell together after their shocking 4-3
defeat at Blackburn last weekend and based on the first-half showing against Bolton, a lot still
remains to be desired.
A full week of training for the Gunners' starting back line, which comprises of Bacary Sagna,
Kieran Gibbs, Laurent Koscielny, and deadline day signing Per Mertesacker, appears to be
insufficient as a lack of coordination at the Emirates handed the visiting Trotters some good
scoring opportunities.
