Running Up That Hill

It was the stereotypical wet afternoon in the North, in conditions that my wimpy American self, used to rain delays and stadiums with roofs, couldn’t imagine sitting in, much less playing football in. In the worst form Arsenal had been in ages it was time to visit the bogey team of the past few seasons. […]

Off the Arsenal main page, the game preview starts off with this quote:
“Forget the title and Champions League for now, Arsène Wenger’s short-term target is simply to win again.”
In a nutshell, this is an easy way to sum up the implications of the season. After stuttering through their last five games, pencil me in desperate […]

Well, I’m back. A nice week vacation away from work, school, and of course, Arsenal offside. Abby has dropped in and shared her thoughts with the Chelsea game. As far as I’m concerned, I’m moving on and putting out some updates from this week.
Big news: Bacary Sagna is out for three weeks. A huge loss, […]

As far as I can tell, from scanning my various favorite news sources, we’ve got through the international break unscathed. No sign of new injuries, at least, which is always what I look for when an international break is done with.

On the one hand, I like international football. I know it’s unfashionable these days compared to the leagues, but I like the way it’s sort of random. I like that I learn about European geography- such as where San Marino is and why it exists. It lets me see some of of my favorite players […]

I really thought we could take this.
I shrieked aloud when Sagna scored. Twice. The high-pitched, embarrassing sort of shriek. No one deserved it more after such a solid season, and I was happy. I thought this would be our day. We were looking solid, everyone was on form, and I was daring to hope between […]

A slow newsday this morning as the team prepares for what looks like to be the biggest game of the year. I wrote yesterday about Flamini’s contract situation. Wenger is confident things will be settled in April. This work really nicely for us.
Chelsea Preview
The Gunners biggest test of the season. With their slump in form […]
Heading towards the weekend

News from around is a bit slow at the moment, but there are a few odds and ends worth reporting. Abby reported about Theo potential getting an England recall, and he took his first step towards appearing against France as he was selected as one of the 30 players in a provisional pool. That’s quite […]

Greetings Offsiders! Travis here, making up the other half of the brand new Arsenal blogging team. The man on the left, Cesc Fabregas is one of the many reasons why I started rooting for this team. You may know me from the Kansas City Wizards blog, but I’m going to be chiming in over […]

While I’ve been settling into my new gig here, things continue to happen around the Arsenal world to discuss. A lot of it is about this bit of a slump we find us in, which I’m trying not to think about. I have a thing where I don’t read the blogs (as much) when Arsenal […]
