I'm back, and so are Arsenal

Since we last spoke, I've completed a degree, got married and switched continents.
The Season ticket has been swapped for 10am kick-offs at Lucky Bar DC. Thankfully, some of the best Gooners in the world reside over here in the States.
Forgive me for not posting.
But, really, the reason my posting slowed up over the last few years is that, for at least the last two seasons, I found it difficult to say anything original about Arsenal.

Arsenal 2-1 Borussia Dortmund

A fine win against a very decent side means that our last group game (Matchday 6 aah, the romance of the cup) will be all stations to Dead Rubbersville.

In fact, it will be a reprise of 2009 when an Arsenal side already assured of top spot sent out the kids and lost 1-0 in Olympiakos.

That was a very strange few days. We spend years carefully, slowly building squads, with obscure players brought in from far and wide, punctuated with highly profitable sales. This modus operandi became familiar to all of us. But in this transfer window, that has all been ripped up, culminating in an insane final evening yesterday.

Manchester United 8-2 Arsenal

‘Will you quit?', Wenger was asked following Arsenal's worst league defeat since 1896. That Wenger's future is now being routinely debated and he is being asked to his face tells you all you need to know about the situation at the club.

Arsenal weekend review – a satirist’s dream

Ten days into the season, and the 'Arsenal in crisis' stories have rarely been more prevalent. The opening exchanges of a new campaign have been, at best, fraught, and at worst, downright embarrassing.

Regular readers will know that I'm one of the most optimistic people out there (for example, I'd suggest that now is an excellent time to place a bet on us finishing in the top four you'll get good odds), but even I have to admit that the situation has progressed into the realms of the comical.

What is Really Happening at Arsenal?

Written by Kelsey

I think a reality check is needed and between us we should try to fathom out what is going wrong at the club. Figures don't lie and we have won just 2 of our last 13 PL games, which would have been inconceivable in February. Fabregas leaving is going to be a huge miss, and though not replaceable like for like we have had the best part of this year knowing he would leave to find another player as a world-class playmaker.

As the Premier League opening games draw nearer there certainly seems to be some movement in the Arsenal transfer market.

For a manager that hates paying over the odds for great [.

It is hard to imagine that in seven days time the first game of the new season will have taken place. There is a remarkably strange feeling about at the moment.

Possibly that feeling is down to Arsenal looking no better than at the tail end of last season and there being only minute changes in the playing staff.

Thoughts On The Emirates Cup Performances

A lot of excellent football, some dodgy refereeing decisions going against Arsenal, and absolute chaos as the back – nothing seems to have changed.

Another stupid goal conceded towards the end means that this Cup will linger in Gooner memories as one that has further reinforced, if that were possible, the need for significant defensive improvement if the Gunners want to challenge for the top honours this season.

Johan Djourou's defensive error gifted Pablo Mouche the equaliser as Boca Juniors fought back from two goals down to secure a 2-2 draw against Arsenal in the Emirates Cup.

Arsene Wenger must be on the look out for a striker this summer.

We know van Persie can score goals, but we are also aware that he is unlikely to go through the season without a major injury keeping him out of action for 3 months. So long as RvP is fit he will bang in goals for fun, but with an international break coming early September, this is the call sign for an injury whilst playing for Holland.

What a goldfish I am. Despite an end of season that spent most of its time reeling from one calamity to another, I appear to be hankering for the new one already. When will I ever learn?

To be fair though, some bits and bobs need to happen before I can get genuinely giddy. Namely a scythe cutting through the chaff of the squad, coupled with the club storing the wheat in a silo where nobody can steal it.

La victoria anterior en el Banorte contra Durango y ésta contra el Orizaba han revivido al equipo sinaloense que ahora, si bien es cierto todavía no hay nada claro, cuando menos las opciones se miran más factibles ya que faltando 12 puntos por disputarse podría calificar si obtiene algunos 7 ú 8.

Who Won:
Chelsea: Blues fans must be delighted. Okay, there's an element of risk in paying 50m for a striker who's done little in the past year, but despite buying yachts, art and world cups, Roman still seems interested in Chelsea.
Liverpool: Replacing an in form Torres would be almost impossible, but he hasn't been happy for months and they got 50m for him.
