With the 3 main title-contenders all changing their manager, many would see this summer as an opportunity that Arsenal must not miss to flex their financial muscle and spend big. With Arsene Wenger a very shrewd negotiator in the transfer market, many are unsure whether he will change this habit. Although, all Arsenal fans feel
All good things inevitably come to an end. The world was treated to an electrifying season finale of the Premier League. Arsenal had a fairly glorious season. With the trophy drought still the elephant in the room, they however concluded the season in a joyous mood having secured a Champions League spot in the expense
In recent years, Arsenal have been lucky enough to have a line of very good right backs in their ranks. From the English bite of Lee Dixon to the undying passion of Lauren to the total commitment of Bacary Sagna, the right side of defence has not been a problematic position for Arsenal for quite
Rewind to the early 2000s, it was all about Arsenal and Manchester United, later Chelsea came into the equation. Fast forward to 2013 and all you see is an Arsenal decline. The team which used to compete for all the top domestic honours have been reduced to mere challengers for a place among the top
Arsenal fans tend to be hostile sometimes. The frustration of not winning a silver-ware for eight years seems to be its toll on them. And when you criticize their players - you are dead meat. Olivier Giroud, as I have said countless times, has struggled to replicate the form Robin Van Persie once displayed at
Since the Moyes dynasty started in 2002, the Toffees have not defeated Arsenal in the Premier League either at Highbury or the Emirates. Tonight, the Scotsman and his boys will attempt to end that horrible away record tonight when they face 3rd placed Arsenal. Everton are back in the hunt for the race
They were all sent out on loan for different reasons, and with competition for a place in the Arsenal starting line-up looking feisty, I have listed in a short and plain method of how their Arsenal future might look like when they eventually return. 1) Marouane Chamakh After securing the signature of French-born striker
This season is done and dusted for Arsenal in terms of fighting for a major title - they can only fight to secure a top 4 finish. Some Arsenal fans might not understand the relevance of finishing in the top 4, but it is as important as winning a title (Wenger’s tone). If Arsenal fail
Saturday and we are back to football ways, Arsene Wenger’s in-form Arsenal side visit The Hawthorns for an epic Premier League clash against Steve Clarke’s inconsistent West Brom team. West Brom would be looking recover from that embarrassing loss against West Ham. Their display was similar to the Reading outfit that visited the Emirates ;
My heart was torn into pieces after the official Sky Sports page tweeted, “Diaby ruled out for the rest of the season after sustaining cruciate ligament injury in training.” Just a few months back, Wenger had some positive words for Diaby : “I faced exactly the same questions with (Robin) van Persie and for a
Arsenal midfielder Abou Diaby has suffered a major knee injury ruling him out for up to nine months. The French International has suffered a cruciate knee ligament injury sustained in training and is set for a very lengthy layoff. This latest setback comes as a massive blow to both Diaby and manager Arsene Wenger. Diaby has who
It hasn’t been easy, speaking from an Arsenal point of view, watching your former lethal striker do so well in another club, especially for your rivals. His name is Robin, and he was like the perfect idol. It has been over three months since Arsenal sold Robin Van Persie to Manchester United for a fee
Defence is all about organisation and understanding. That is something Arsenal have not had consistently this season. At the beginning of the season, it looked promising for the Gunners. 3 clean sheets in a row got Arsenal fans thinking whether a corner had been turned. Unfortunately, this didn’t come to fruition. An injury to Laurent
Whether it’s a promotional stunt, a bit of Public Relations work or if the money and fame has simply went to their head, numerous footballers from all corners of the world have been spotted in what can only be called train wrecks on wheels. Today, however, we’re going to look away from the expensive and
On Wednesday, Arsenal were the last English team to be knocked out of the UEFA Champions League despite beating Bayern 2-0 at the Allianz Arena. But, despite their efforts, they were unfortunately knocked out by the away goal rule. Barely 5 minutes into the match, Arsenal were ahead through the big Frenchman Olivier Giroud after
A topic which has split Arsenal fans, is the controversial managerial situation. Some say that Wenger is still the right man for us and, should he be given more resources, will make us a true force again. Others disagree and think he isn’t the manager he was. Mainly because of his refusal to change the
Bayern Munich are primed to hammer the latest nail in the coffin of Arsenal’s torrid season that looks like it could fizzle out with a failure, for the first time in 16 years, to achieve a place in the Champions League. The ease with which the Germans dispatched the Gunners in their 1-3 first leg
If you ask an Arsenal fan what position in the team needs strengthening, there’s a very good chance they will say defensive midfield. For a number of reasons, first of all, we haven’t had a ‘proper’ holding midfielder - someone who does nothing but sit and cover the back 4, then keeps the ball and
Many Arsenal fans are already categorizing this season as one of the team’s biggest flops yet as the red side of London has just recently been knocked out of the FA Cup by Championship side Blackburn and are seemingly glaring at a last 16 exit out of the UEFA Champions league - but Arsene Wenger
10-12 years ago, no one, not even the most pessimistic fan would have uttered the phrase ‘Time Up Arsene’. The French man affectionately called Le Professeur was having the time of his managerial career winning League titles and domestic cups. The fans were happy, the critics reluctantly applauding. The French contingent of Robert Pires, Thierry
The enemies of Arsenal Football Club are in full cry once more, attempting to de-stabilise the sound foundations for future prosperity. They even go as far as to call for Arsene Wenger to be replaced. This is laughable to anyone who has even a semblance of football knowledge. There is currently no manager anywhere near
Over the last 20 years, we have been privileged to see so many brilliant players and wonderful goals illuminate the Premier League, leading to a plethora of breathtaking football matches. But which of these games stand-out, leaving an ever-lasting imprint on our memories? The following is a list of my top 10 games of the
With recent triumphs over the likes of Spurs and Liverpool already a distant memory and blip in the woeful form shown this season, I ask, what’s next for the Arsenal? A line of 3 uninspiring displays against supposedly inferior opposition was capped off by the most lack lustre, pitiful display since; well, Norwich away or
Jack Wilshere has recently returned to full form with his childhood club Arsenal and today he made an impact like no other. After being 14 months in the shadows, Jack Wilshere has broken out into the lime light with an almighty bang. He pushed personal fears of deprivation aside as he scored his first goal
It almost sounds like a broken record, Arsene Wenger facing questions over a transfer policy that has failed to add a single trophy in the past seven years and one that sees a high profile player exit the door every summer shouting “lack of ambition” at the top of his voice. However through overseeing the
