Many Arsenal ‘fans' have come out in force against Wenger, the board and our squad this week following shock defeats to Norwich and Shalke 04. I understand frustration due to a loss but to question a team that many of you were so confident about just a few weeks ago seems ridiculous to me.
Due to Man City's excellent home record including two wins out of two this season, it is no surprise that Arsenal are outsiders to win this Sunday's match at the Etihad, but there are some pointers that would suggest that the Gunners have a good chance of ending that record.
First of all, Roberto Mancini's side may be a little despondent after their dramatic loss on Tuesday, although Wenger is expecting different tactics from City this weekend.
Arsenal are preparing to face the newly-promoted Southampton this weekend, and despite the South Coast club still being without a point, they have given a scare to both Man United and Man City having scored twice against each of the Top Two last season with Van Persie only rescuing Man United in the dying minutes [.
Oliver Giroud talks about the pressure by AH Summer signing Oliver Giroud has told Arsenal.com that
he doesn't mind the pressure being put on his shoulders at Arsenal. The Frenchman has been given
the task to replace former captain robin Van Persie, who departed for Manchester United earlier
this month.
Mirallas to Arsenal? by KJ Today has been full of dreadful Arsenal transfer news. Apparently Van
Persie is on his way to Manchester Utd. Song is close to a move to Barcelona. The Sahin deal has
been hijacked by Liverpool. It's frankly unbelievable considering how positive we all were only on
Sunday. Now, we could [.
Transfer Delays and Greed – By JG Maybe Arsenal fans want or don't care if they have to suffer
another "Nasri" situation again; because some really don't seem to mind very much whether the
player who is brought in has integrity, respect and admires the tradition and style of Arsenal FC.
I'm not sure about [.
After the last match of the season against WBA, won by Arsenal with a 3-2 scoreline, manager Arsene
Wenger spoke about the situation with RVP's expiring contract. Van Persie has snubbed all contract
negotiations until the season finished, so now it's time for him to face reality and make a choice.
Following the game, Wenger [.
Wenger's Prayers For Muamba Paid Off by AM The Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admits that he was
shocked after hearing what happened to his former student Fabrice Muamba. According to the
Frenchman, Fabrice is the kind of guy you are bound to love and despite the midfielder left the
Gunners quite a long time ago, [.
The Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger knows that his team are under fire from all and sundry after
being knocked out of the FA Cup and (virtually) the Champions League, but he thinks the players
"haven't done too badly" and he must keep faith with them as they now have to carry on the fight to
[...]
Arsenal have definitely missed Kieran Gibbs. He isn't Arsenal's best Left-Back, personally I
believe Santos is, but what a refreshing idea to actually have a LB in the LB position! However
there are still some problems with the guy that needs to be sorted out... Gibbs has a lot of
potential. Wenger wouldn't have him [.
Speaking in his pre-match pre-match press conference, the Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has provided a
very positive injury update on Jack Wilshere. "He (Wilshere) had a very important scan on Thursday
and that was very very good, exceptionally good. The news we have for Jack is very positive," he
said.
Feeling gloomy about the Cesc/ Nasri tabloid furore and our end of season capitulation? Worried
we may not sign a "big name" or even the experienced leader we need? Feel like slitting your wrists
that we could end up playing Bayern Munich in the Champions League Qualifiers?

I've learnt a couple of things since my last update. One, a title can be sensationalist and
attract a lot of views, and two, many people read the title and make up their minds based on that
and not what the rest of the article says. I've also noted what a massive divide there is between
fans when it comes to what formation we should play.
