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

The Gunning Hawk 22 November @ 03:00 PM EST
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...

Well: We can’t blame Diaby this time..

Avenell Road 22 November @ 02:02 PM EST

After 2 weeks wait our team failed us, what went wrong? I don't really know, a slight attitude problem I would guess. We need more desire to win. We need to believe..

If we still need to find a scapegoat we cannot for a change point the finger at our favourite villains Diaby, Eboue or Bendtner.

Arsenal: A disappointing preamble to the Chelsea match

Soccerblog 22 November @ 12:02 PM EST

Sunderland went ahead with a Darren Bent goal in the 71st minute and held on for the win. A somewhat lucky goal but the they are getting quite the reputation as the club that the big four fear the most. Liverpool and Man Utd have had their share of difficulties with them, so it was never going to be easy for Arsenal.

In Order To Win, You Have Got to want It.

Avenell Road 22 November @ 05:40 AM EST

How disappointing was that? Made all the worse by the frenzy of expectation that we whipped ourselves into. I'm more stunned than angry, maybe anger will come later but right now I am walking around in a daze.

I reckon no matter what combination of player you hoped to see yesterday, you were catered for; if you were one of those that wanted Nasri in place of Diaby, you got it; if you wanted to see Ramsey given more game time than Denilson, you got it; if you thought that the combination of Fabregas, Arshavin, Nasri, Rosicky would be unstoppable, you got it, if you thought Vela and Walcott would make the difference, you got it; if you thought Song was too important to rest, you got it, if you thought that Silvestre shouldn't be anywhere near the first team, you got it.

Lack of width + substituting Eduardo early proves decisive in the negative

Gunners Today 21 November @ 06:12 PM EST

The art of a natural striker is immensely undervalued these days isn't it? "Yeah he is okay, but he does nothing else apart from score". How would we have love to have that player at the Stadium of Light. We did. He went off just after the 71st minute. Shortly after we went 1-0 down.

Frazier Campbell didn't know what he did with Bent's header from Reid's corner.

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?

Sunderland preview – lots of ins and outs from the last game

The Beautiful Groan 20 November @ 12:50 PM EST

The final international break of the year is over. How good does that sound?

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.

Funny Feeling Friday: Eduardo

Never Captain Nicky Butt 20 November @ 12:00 AM EST
Eduardo's most common move, the ankle breaker
This is the most obvious Funny Feeling Friday selection in history - but the selection completely fits the award for the week - an unpopular, out of form, or underrated player who we think will perform over the next few weeks.
Couldn't be more obvious: it's Eduardo (7. Click to continue reading...
