Arsenal v FC Porto Preview and Game Thread

By: travis | Comments 2 Comments

I don’t have much time this morning for a preview. Not even sure if I’ll be home to watch all of the game. But it’s an important match after a lackluster affair from the weekend. Also creating significance is the need for points in our group.
Ahead of today’s match the boss speaks on how it [...]

Well That Wasn’t Pleasant

By: travis | Comments No Comments

I’m still recovering from that. Tip of the cap to the coach and players of Hull City – they played an outstanding game, whereas the high paid players of Arsenal looked liked they didn’t care Geovanni’s goal was sublime, but he was given too much time and too much space. William Gallas is once again [...]

Friday Musings and Hull City Preview

By: travis | Comments 1 Comment

Another Friday means match day is soon to come. This week it’s newcomers Hull City visiting the Emirates. It was a crazy week, as the youngsters were the toast of the Carling Cup’s third round with their thrashing of Sheffield United. Lots of interesting news to go around as a result.
Cesc talks about fearing for [...]

Wow.

A lot of positive reaction from yesterday’s result. And what a result it was. In fact, I’m left speechless. Also, busy, so I’m going to have to defer you here for highlights and some poignant points from the thumping of Sheff United. I had a post up with an embedded set of highlights that was [...]

The Kids are Alright for the Carling Cup

By: travis | Comments 5 Comments

At Arsenal, youth is served. And keeping in that fashion, the boss has named a side of 13 teenagers for today’s fixture against Sheffield United. It comes as no surprise, as this has been his approach to the Cup, the fourth highest priority for Wenger.
In my attempt at player news, Jack Wilshere may get [...]

Top of the table

By: travis | Comments 2 Comments

Yes, it’s hardly something to get overly excited about (although I love this kind of enthusiasm). But good times call for celebration, even through just five games of the season, as Arsenal sits on top, one point ahead of Chelsea and Liverpool. The biggest point of triumph is the elimination of the dropped points at [...]

Bolton Preview/Thread

By: travis | Comments 7 Comments

Good morning folks. Another important fixture on the road at the Reebok against Bolton. Not going to be easy, this one, as the squad is probably a bit tired from its trek down and back to Kiev. That’ll be no excuse, says the boss in part of the match preview. Bolton has given us difficulties [...]

Friday Update

By: travis | Comments No Comments

It’s the end of the work week for most and as it winds down, Arsenal prepares for another match, this time away against Bolton. Never an easy place for us to play in, it’ll be a tricky fixture no doubt. Before I get to a preview, there’s a lot of chatter around these parts about [...]

Dynamo 1-1 Arsenal

By: travis | Comments 1 Comment

Having let it settle a bit, I thought it appropriate to revisit what happened in Kiev yesterday. A definite winneable game was blown thanks to some poor finishing. It isn’t really much more than that. The penalty awarded to Kiev was without doubt a dodgy decision. A first glance at it and it look like [...]

Good day folks. Thanks to my current unemployed status, I’ll be following the match online (In Spanish) and bringing a blow by blow account of the action. Not sure how this will go, but feel free to leave thoughts in the comment section. Back soon with starting lineups.
