Before this season began, many were criticizing Arsene Wenger's decision to sell Adebayor and wondered where goals would come from for the North London team. I responded in an article:
"It is Arsenal whom I think will be this season's top scorers. Arsenal's attacking midfield and attack is tough to criticize. Click to continue reading...

Remember when the Spuds beat our Carling Cup team 5-1 and every blog we went on all we saw was this new way of writing Ar5ena1? Well I have just thought of a new way of spelling T0tt3nham ..
I hope it sticks for a while..

All I have heard on the radio since Saturday is Arsenal only beat the Spuds because they had a load of injuries.

by CARL ELDRIDGE What is it with Arsenal and our keepers? If Arsene Wenger has one weakness (and he probably doesn't other than choice of shirt-tie combo) it must be choosing the incumbent for the No.1 slot. He was blessed to inherit David Seaman and even then he gave Alex Manninger a chance ahead of the pony-tailed one.

Carling Cup tomorrow, with a home matchup against Liverpool.

As I've said previously, I feel a little conflicted about the competition. Do I want to win? Yes, of course. But I have mixed feelings about how we treat the competition. Because, to be clear, Arsene Wenger does not really care about winning the Carling Cup.

Upton Park is where our focus is today. Gianfranco Zola's West Ham faces exactly the same turmoil as Arsenal's previous opponent, AZ Alkmaar, financially stuttering that is.They have sold close to 10 players since last year just to offset some of the monetary difficulties but have kept virtually the core of the team in Robert Green, Matthew Upson, Scott Parker, David Noble and Carlton Cole.

Which Gallas will show up?

Today see the visit of Birmingham to Ashburton Grove. The incident 2 seasons ago at St. Andrew's will no doubt still rankles in the mind of all Arsenal fans. The Eduardo broken leg incident brought about sad memories of that particular season. First for the bad injury that the Brazilian suffered at the hand (or legs) of Martin Taylor but more importantly, it was the start of which Arsenal lost the impetus for the Premier League title.

One of the things I hate about people, life if you may, is when promises are broken. If you can't keep 'em, don't make 'em! I once told my friend I'd visit him when he was living in a different city. But due to one thing or another, I never got around to it.

If we are to believe what Ramsey has said recently, Wenger is looking to start him in 15-20 games this year.

Arsene Wenger has confirmed that Arsenal's Brazilian midfielder, Denilson, will be out of action for two months as he has a 'small fracture in his back'. Denilson, who scored the opening goal of Arsenal's Premier League campaign this season, played his last match at the City of Manchester Stadium, will be out until the end of November.

So the Greeks are here in the big city, but I don't expect them to have a smashing time tonight. Tonight will be a game full of goals, our goals and a big win!

No Nik as he decided to take part in a Grand Prix on Sunday morning and came off the track on the first bend – twit!

No Theo as he is playing behind closed doors against an Olympiacos second string and no Denilson as he has a fracture in his back and is out for two months.

Arsenal vs Olympiakos

The Gunners will be keen to put the horrible start against Standard Liege behind them against Olympiakos on Tuesday. A solid 1-0 win has to give them confidence going in, especially in young Italian goalkeeper Vito Mannone made a series of spectacular stops against Fulham at the weekend.

I like Denilson as a player and despite what people said about him last season, I defended him. Statistics supported my cause but then again stats are like marmite, you either love them or you hate them.

Denilson has been missing from the first XIÂ now since he was subbed at Eastlands.

Well, it's Arsenal, so for every player that comes back from injury, another player has to get hurt. Just when it looks like we might have a full squad again, with Rosicky, Walcott, and Arshavin returning to health, a couple more players get hurt.

First, and most seriously, Denilson is apparently out two months with a "small" fracture in his back.

Having battled past Fulham thanks to an unforgettable performance by Vito Mannone, the lads will now resume their Champions League adventure as they face Olympiacos, the leaders in Greece.

You know how sometimes big money transfers don't work out? I'm thinking Andriy Shevchenko at Chelsea, Juan Sebastian Veron at Man Utd, Denilson at Real Betis etcetera. Well, there were some who thought Barcelona's signing of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Real Madrid's signing of Cristiano Ronaldo could fall into that category. Click to continue reading...

Never. Even if you have 4 shots, score 4 and the opposition have 20 and outplay out the whole game. But if you read in some quarters, Wigan were poor, they didn't take their chances and oh, Eboue is a disgrace.
A big positive we can take from this game is the way we are getting results against so called 'smaller teams'. Click to continue reading...
