- Goodbye Mourinho
I can’t believe I failed to mention this yesterday. It just slipped my mind somewhat. Now I know Mourinho has little to do with Arsenal but as one of the managers of our rival clubs and as quite the character, I feel that covering his sacking/resignation/mutual agreement (or whatever you might like to call it) [...]

- Comfortable victory over Sevilla, Usmanov increases stake
Arsenal 3 Sevilla 0
Though I agree with Le Boss on this one, in that the result was a bit flattering (Fabregas scored a deflected shot and we finished the scoring late on when Sevilla were piling men forward) it is still a good performance and result. This after all is one of the best [...]

- Arsenal 3 Tottenham 1
Made my day this one, a day that would’ve been made marginally better had I not suffered an accident that same night, breaking my two front teeth as a result of a piggyback gone wrong. What really would’ve topped the biscuit though would have been watching the game on the TV. I mean, it’s Arsenal [...]

- International week round up, Gallas won’t change, Bendtner wants away and Wenger offered Walcott advice
International Watch
I’m not one to go out of my way to see the international fixtures. England, yes, I support them and so I watch them. If a game’s not on TV (not that I go out of my way to see Wales, Ireland and Scotland either) then I’m not too bothered. All of which of [...]

- August and early September round up
I’m back. The reason I’ve been away longer perhaps than expected is owed to not booking a return flight home, the thought being that to pick up a cheap flight out there and a last minute flight back would cost less. That turned out to be a mistake, it ended up costing more and [...]

- Blackburn 1-1 Arsenal: More of this grit please, Arsene
Scrappy game and one which Arsenal looked to have in the bag before Lehmann gifted Blackburn and Dunn a goal and after that it all went pear-shaped, with Arsenal and Blackburn players preferring to clash off the ball than let their skills do the talking.
van Persie, Pedersen, Fabregas, Savage, Nelson and Flamini were in [...]

Both clubs come off from winning away games in Europe, and after good starts to the season the two sides will be confident of a rousing battle at Ewood Park on Sunday.
Arsenal are expected to start with Eduardo Da Silva alongside RVP up front (or will that be a [...]

- Gallas is Made Captain
It’s official. William Gallas has been made captain of Arsenal, and you can’t help but scratch your head on this decision. After all of the controversy that Gallas has caused this summer, you would think that Kolo Toure and Gilberto would have been much better choices. Toure and Gilberto have been at [...]

- Arsenal are far better than people think
This article first appeared on Soccerlens.com, and is part of a series of season previews done at SL.
Last summer, everyone was talking about how Arsenal were in crisis. They way I saw it, they had missed a few tricks in the Premiership but as a whole Wenger would have learned from it. Learn he did, [...]

- Arsenal in transition? Surely not…
Football hacks like to jump all over new, ‘catchy’ trends that help them tell (and sell) a better story. Here’s an example of how it works:
Arsenal won the league in 2004, came 2nd in 2005, struggled to come 4th in 2006 and came in 4th again in 2007. Good players have left, Arsenal have not [...]
