Match Preview: Arsenal vs. West Ham

By: Dan | Comments 2 Comments

The first game of the new year against the only team to beat us at home last season. Judging from the weekend’s game against Manchester United, West Ham is more than capable of giant killing and will be a hard match with many of our first-team players obviously fatigued. Arsene Wenger seems to appreciate this, […]

Post Match: Arsenal vs. Everton (4-1)

By: Dan | Comments 2 Comments

An unusual win. Three goals off long balls (one from Almunia) and no creativity or spark until Fabregas and Hleb came off. After going 1-0 down in the first twenty minutes due to some sorry defending from a corner, it seemed as the optimistic 4-4-2 we used, with Bendtner, Eduardo and Diaby all starting, was […]

Match Preview: Arsenal vs. Everton

After the narrow win over Tottenham (2-1) over the weekend and the excruciating draw at Pompey (0-0), some fresh ideas are needed for tomorrow’s game against Everton. The team is tired and Wenger is stuck. Simply put, the 4-5-1 has killed our creativity and ability to score, resulting in our drop in the table.

Champions League Draw: Arsenal vs. AC Milan

By: Dan | Comments 39 Comments

Whoa. Arsenal is facing AC Milan in the next round, with the first leg at the Emirates on February 20th and the second leg at the San Siro on March 4th. An unbelievable draw (though I guessed it), and a tantalizing prospect for neutrals. This game will be simply massive.

Post Match: Arsenal vs. Blackburn (3-2)

By: Dan | Comments 2 Comments

A nail-biting conclusion to cap off a fine effort by our young stars. The Carling Cup is once again the showcase for Arsenal’s young talent, and with an average age of 20, Arsenal beat Blackburn’s normal squad. Diaby opened up scoring in the sixth minute with a deft volley and Eduardo solidified Arsenal’s lead only […]

Post Match: Arsenal vs. Chelsea (1-0)

By: Dan | Comments 7 Comments

What a win. A gutsy, confident performance where we matched Chelsea’s tenacity and vigor step for step. It may not have been one of our greatest performances, but it displayed a deep fortitude which few suspected from Arsenal. Captain Fantastico William Gallas cemented his place as a leader with the game-winning goal, and the Mr. […]

Match Preview: Arsenal vs. Chelsea

By: Dan | Comments 6 Comments

“I believe without a doubt that this season will be the most exciting year in the Premier League ever. Since I’ve been here you have never had four teams as tight as this. It’s very difficult to pick one out of the three contenders. For me all three are the same [strengths] but for different […]

Post Match: Arsenal v. Steaua Bucureşti

By: Dan | Comments 2 Comments

A disappointing night all around. We won 2-1 off Diaby and van Persie goals, but Sevilla demolished Slavia 3-0 and we are resigned to second place. Honestly, the game was forgettable - the good work by Walcott in the first half disappearing in the second, with the return of Robin van Persie being the […]

Finally we have the chance to overcome the past two very poor results. Tomorrow’s match against the Romanians seems to be straightforward, but injuries have decimated the squad and Wenger may be looking towards Sunday’s huge match against Chelsea.

A Few Thoughts From Someone New

By: Dan | Comments 10 Comments

Howdy readers. I am the new blogger for Arsenal, and I can only hope I can do the club some justice. I’m a student living in Vermont, so suffice to say my life isn’t that interesting. I would like to move onto something you are interested in - namely l’Arse.
