Spurs - Wigan Preview: “Kaka Dispossed by Jenas…”

All Action, No Plot 21 November @ 06:22 PM EST

For those of you who think my Jenas-bashing is sounding like a broken record, I am proud to announce that this week I come to praise the man, not than bury him. Well alright, "praise" might be a little strong, but this is at least intended to be a mite more constructive than the usual tirade.

The sight of our hero lining up for England against Brazil last week may have been a touch bewildering (on the basis of which games exactly did Don Fabio make that particular selection?

Would Mourinho be welcome at United?

Man United Devils 21 November @ 06:50 AM EST
The story linking Jose Mourinho with a move to Manchester United as manager one day continues to rumble on. Mourinho has in the past hinted that he would like the job, and again this week, that he sees his long term future in England.
It would seem unlikely that a return to Chelsea would be on the cards and, going on the assumption he would only go to a top 4 club, unless there is new ownership at Arsenal then his style of play wouldn't exactly be welcomed at the Emirates which leaves Man Utd or Liverpool.

Arsenal Brunei Blog 19 November @ 02:19 AM EST
Eduardo has committed his future to Arsenal by signing a new long-term contract at Emirates Stadium.

Sign. Him. Up.

Wrighty7 18 November @ 04:02 PM EST
Despite all the bad news coming out of the Emirates recently regarding injuries, and the numbers amount to a whole side, there has been some good news also.
Several players have signed new contracts at the club, the latest being Eduardo. Now forgive me if I'm wrong but I'm sure that I read somewhere that Eduardo was disillusioned at Arsenal because we were hesitating to offer him a new long-term deal. Click to continue reading...

FTK Blog: How much do you want the Carling Cup?

Arsenal Insider 13 November @ 07:34 AM EST

No TGIF during the International break, so it gives me a chance to go back to traditional blogging. The subject for discussion this week is the vexed question of silverware at Arsenal football Club. The persistent refrain of Arsenal MUST win something this season if the youth experiment is to be hailed as a success is rather doing my head in. Click to continue reading...

Arsenal – The People’s champions?

OK Football Finder 12 November @ 01:00 AM EST

It's a bit early to be making broad statements about the title challengers, but broad statements promote debate, and I'm all about the debating. This season will be a 2 horse race between Chelsea and Arsenal for the premier league.

Man Utd simply lack any flair what so ever, Liverpool sadly have blown it by not having enough players who can play football, and Manchester City don't seem to have the right manager just yet.

Five Arsenal Players Who Are Just Not Good Enough

Caught Offside 11 November @ 12:07 PM EST

As they Gunners continue their great run of form it is worth mentioning those players who are still not hitting the high notes.

Philippe Senderos

Whilst I think the Big Swiss is not the same defender that was derided when he first hit the scene I still don't think he has much of a future at the club.

Arsenal Are Just Never Good Enough

Arsenal Station 11 November @ 09:04 AM EST

Despite getting off to a start that has gone beyond all expectations, the football pundits continue to dig around for any reason to stick to their idiotic pre-season predictions of Arsenal's impending doom and gloom. The club is 15-2-2 overall having scored 55 goals, 10-0 at home having scored 33 goals at the Emirates.

Nick Bendtner will undergo groin surgery

Soccerblog 10 November @ 08:45 AM EST

It is now more like a hernia rather than a milder tear. Which means that Bendtner needs surgical intervention and is likely to be out for 6 weeks or more.

Thomas Vermaelen and William Gallas have been very good so far on set pieces but Bendtner would have given an aerial threat to get around Chelsea's physical defense (the Blues visit the Emirates on Nov 29th) and win back possession.

Kieran Gibbs for England. Eventually.

England World Cup Blog 09 November @ 12:21 PM EST

Arsene Wenger thinks 20 year old Arsenal left back Kieran Gibbs is "ready to play" for England. I'd rather stick with Ashley Cole and Wayne Bridge for World Cup 2010, thanks Arsene, but after watching Gibbs play in Arsenal's 4-1 win over Wolves today, I think we can definitely file Gibbs under "near future".

ESPN Doesn’t Know The Difference Between Emirates and Highbury

EPL Talk 04 November @ 10:03 AM EST

In the intro to every Premier League game that ESPN2 shows on Saturday mornings, they begin with a graphic of the world and then zoom in on England and directly to the home ground where the match is played. It's a brilliant sequence, but they goofed this past Saturday when instead of zooming in on the Emirates Stadium, home of Arsenal Football Club, they zoomed in on the Arsenal Stadium, better known as Highbury.

And I thought that the Emirates had no atmosphere!

Wrighty7 03 November @ 03:05 PM EST
Many have taken the piss out of the atmosphere at the Emirates in the past. They did about Highbury too. But they can't deny that it wasn't a wall of noise on Saturday against the Spuds!
It was electric and a right smack in the face for those who have a dig about us Gooners being the silent type. Click to continue reading...

Band news for Clichy. A suspected stress fracture of the back will keep him out of the AZ Alkmaar return leg at the Emirates tomorrow and league fixtures against Wolves, Sunderland, and Chelsea.

Arsenal Starlet Emmanuel-Thomas Scores a Cracker (Video)

Caught Offside 02 November @ 04:52 PM EST

There is clearly no shortage of young talent at the Emirates and therefore it is vital for the growth of these teenagers to be farmed out on loan to give them a good grounding in senior football and clearly Jay-Emmanuel Thomas is getting the hang of it just nicely.

Painful

White Hart Pain 02 November @ 07:01 AM EST

Painful is the only word I can use to describe having to endure that woeful display. Do the players not understand the importance of this fixture to the Tottenham fans? Their pathetic efforts at the Emirates would suggest not.

While we may have been missing some key men through injury and suspension, our squad is meant to be one of the best in the league.
