Sunderland’s day-after thoughts: Our away from home form is simply not good enough

Unbeatable at the Emirates, so vulnerable away from it. And Wenger's statement, saying that had we played Sunderland at home we would have won, well, that's very funny if you ask me. In an interview not ... Click to continue reading...

Could van Persie start against Chelsea after all?

Arsenal Analysis 22 November @ 02:48 PM EST
By AriesArsene Wenger doesn't think that van Persie has a cat in hell's chance to play against Chelsea next Sunday but the player himself was so insistent about getting permission to fly to Serbia that Wenger had to let him go."I let him go on his insistence. However, I doubt that the treatment will provide the publicised results. Click to continue reading...

Contracts anyone?

LadyArse - Arsenal and the world of football from a woman's perspective @ OleOl 22 November @ 09:25 AM EST
Thank goodness for the Sunday papers. So hellbent on printing shit they have focused more on Lionel 'I'm another Barcelona cunt' Messi's pleas to Cesc to join him at Barca and become the world's greatest midfielder than our defeat at Sunderland. Not only is this yet another insult to Cesc, it is another one to Arsenal and I for one can't wait to get them in the Champions League so the World's greatest midfielder can slam their lack of respect into the back of their net three or four times.

Sunderland 1, Arsenal 0 - Van Persie was missed, but Arsenal weren't too bad

Wicked Deflection 21 November @ 08:14 PM EST
Arsenal lost the match today, but they didn't look too bad.
They lined up something like this:
Rosicky Eduardo Nasri
Ramsey Song Fabregas
Traore Vermaelen Gallas Sagna
Almunia
I love the look of the side with Rosicky in there. I'm a fan of those starting players, as well as the three subs Carlos Vela, Andre Arshavin, and Theo Walcott. Click to continue reading...

Sunderland preview - The Arsenal are back

Arseblog 21 November @ 04:21 AM EST

Right, well football's back and we can finally put the Interlull behind us. Obviously there was plenty about Thierry, Ireland and France and what have you at Arsene's press conference yesterday but I think enough has been said on here about it.

The only thing I will comment on is his call for technology to be used to help referees.

Now you don’t see ‘em, now you do

East Lower 20 November @ 03:20 PM EST

Fridays always have the potential to bring better news on the injury front, what with Wenger's press conference, and there was certainly plenty of good news today.

From a list that that seemed earlier on this week to be mushrooming out of control, things now look a bit more normal, don't they?

Real football returns tomorrow, and unlike many Premiership weekends, it is Saturday that looks the tastier of the days. Liverpool and City play each other at lunchtime, United face Everton in the evening, Chelsea are involved and we have a very tricky trip to Sunderland to negotiate.
