You may have seen that Cesc Fabregas played the last 15 minutes or so of the two games against Newcastle on the right of midfield. Having seen both these small periods of the game live at the Emirates, it made me think. Before I explain my thoughts, remember that the game was won in the [...]
Arsenal 3 Newcastle 0 – back to the top after a pretty easy game
Same opposition, same result and it was nice to see our form improving once again. The Tottenham result seems to have helped us a bit and we are finally playing the football we played at the start of the season. We are dominating games again and have our ruthless streak back. It is perfect timing [...]
Man Utd – FA Cup (a) and Milan (h) – two key games (Newcastle Preview)
The FA Cup draw has been completed and we have been dealt the worst possible draw. Before the game I thought we would get either Manchester United or Chelsea, however I had a feeling it would be at the Emirates. It is just our luck we would draw the team playing brilliant football in their [...]
Arsenal 3 Newcastle 0 – it was well and truly put right with an Ade brace
Everyone knew the players needed to produce a performance far better than the one on Tuesday night. We also knew a win was necessary after such a drubbing. Anything but a victory could begin to set in doubts over a mini collapse and dip in results. We needed to put The Carling Cup firmly behind [...]
Arsenal vs Newcastle (FA Cup) – Time to put it right
First and foremost, some great news. Having lost so badly to Spurs on Tuesday, the last thing we needed was for the FA to slap a ban on Adebayor after his “misunderstanding” with Bendtner. Adebayor has looked our main threat in goal recently and showed this with a goal within 10 minutes of coming on. [...]
Spurs 5 Arsenal 1 (6-2) – embarrassing, lacklustre and downright horrible
You will read many a match report and blog tonight and tomorrow morning regarding how bad we were tonight, how humiliating it is to lose to Spurs and maybe the mistake Wenger made before the game. To be honest there is nothing more to say and it is hard to take any pleasure from a [...]
Spurs vs Arsenal – stakes are massive – Carling Cup Final place for the victor
If you remember last season’s Carling Cup Semi-Final, you will recall the tie was poised in pretty much the exact same way. With the score’s level at 2-2, the return leg could have gone either way. There is no doubt that last year we had the psycholigical edge going into the second match having come [...]
Fulham 0 Arsenal 3 – Job well done
Before the game I called for a victory first and foremost. After the Birmingham it was important to pick up three points again and if we could produce a good performance to boot then that would be an added bonus. In the end, we got both and with the team Fulham had it was always [...]
Fulham vs Arsenal – Let’s put the disappointment of last Saturday firmly behind us
Cast your minds back to the 29th November of last year and an away trip to Craven Cottage. A game which Arsenal fans would expect to win went very pear shaped and we were 2-0 down after 20 minutes. We had been susceptible to crosses and both goals came from wide areas, one from a [...]
Diarra Off? Flamini To Stay Or Go? Centre Midfield Options…Left Winger In?
Yesterday, for a brief part of coverage time, Sky Sports News broke some breaking news to fans. It disapeared soon after and I have not heard much since but it still disapointed me and it seems he is off. It stated that Arsenal and Portsmouth were in the middle of negotiations regarding the [...]
