That sucked

That was extremely unpleasant. From David Bentley lobbing it over Almunia to the way the defense split apart at the seams in the last three minutes – there isn’t anything good to take from this. Nothing. I know that it is easy to talk doom and gloom early this season, but if this roller coaster [...]
North London Derby

Tonight is a huge game for the fans. But is it as important for the current crop of Arsenal players? I came across an article that highlights a point – a lot of the foreign imports playing at Arsenal would rather beat the likes of Chelski or Man United than Tottenham. A valid point, but [...]
West Ham 0-2 Arsenal
By: travis | No Comments
No dramas on the road this past weekend, although it wasn’t easy. Trip to West Ham can be nervy at times, and that was the case this time around.
The start was pretty sloppy – the midfield couldn’t hold onto the ball very well, and West Ham enjoyed a significant portion of the possession, leading [...]
On the Weekend

Yesterday, the big news came from the AGM and it was mostly good news. Arsene chatted up with fans, shareholders, and journos who came out for the spectacle. Of note, Stan Kroenke was out for a little meet and greet, although no sign of Alishar Usmanov, which is probably a good thing.
The squad is healing [...]
Fenerbahçe 2-5 Arsenal

Well how about that for another great performance. As previously mentioned, I was unable to watch or see any part of the game thanks to a day trip down to D.C. Coming back to see a 5-2 result, on the road, you couldn’t ask for anything better really. Goals poured in from all over the [...]
Arsenal 3-1 Everton

Optimism reigns after this win? Not yet. Three points is three points, especially after a shaky start. But it wasn’t as easy as the final score might indicate. Plus, Kolo Toure will now miss an undetermined amount of time with a shoulder injure. That could mean the starting centrebacks, Gallas and Toure, might not feature [...]
Everton Game Thread

It’s a big one today. Arsenal have been as stable as the Dow over the past few weeks and need a result today. I’ll join anyone who feels like dropping in to watch on FSC. It’ll be a tough match up, that’s for sure – time to see what this team is made of. Lots [...]
Tall task ahead this weekend
By: travis | No Comments
The injured list is lengthy heading into this weekend’s crucial clash with Everton. After dropping points in the past two matches, it’s vital to pick up three points. It’ll have to be done without William Gallas, Nicklas Bendtner, and Bacary Sagna, all three picking up knocks on international duty. That trio will miss at least [...]
All that’s going on

This is an accurate description of what is going on in Arsenal-land. I just can’t muster a WCQ recap this time around. I did, however, find this cliche picture:
I refuse to acknowledge these rumors, simply because I’m in denial to Cesc possibly leaving. That, and it’s October. I’ll rejoin you all this week.
Oh, and did [...]

That’s two more points dropped on the road. Expecting Arsenal to win every game is dangerous, but it’s something that I come to expect – not necessarily every single game, but perhaps when taking on a team like Sunderland, three points is the expected outcome.
For the second weekend in a row, I felt like turning [...]
