Olympiakos Highlights

By: Martin | Comments 4 Comments

Arsenal v Olympiakos Piraeus
Didn’t get to see the game, but from the looks of things, it was one of those games that easily could have been much more lopsided than the end result–I think 2-0 flattered the Greek side a bit. 12 shots on goal, many of them golden opportunities from close up, is quality, [...]

Olympiakos Preview and Open Thread

By: Martin | Comments 12 Comments

So we’re back in action today with a big match against Olympiakos. At the moment, we are co-group leaders after we had that erm…”interesting” win over Standard and Olympiakos dispatched AZ. A win and 3 points today would put us well and truly in control of the group. As I’ve discussed before, the last match [...]

Denilson, Bendtner Injured

By: Martin | Comments 1 Comment

Well, it’s Arsenal, so for every player that comes back from injury, another player has to get hurt. Just when it looks like we might have a full squad again, with Rosicky, Walcott, and Arshavin returning to health, a couple more players get hurt.
First, and most seriously, Denilson is apparently out two months with [...]

Well, it’s 3 points, right? It wasn’t the best performance by any means. But we got the win–after so many times saying “we were the better team but still lost,” I’m much happier when the opposite is true. And as I discussed in the [...]

As you probably know, in recent years, Arsenal has dramatically strengthened its ties to the United States. Arsenal hired Ivan Gazidis, who was born in South Africa, grew up in England, but worked as an attorney in the United States before becoming deputy commissioner of MLS, as its chief executive in 2008. Colorado native Stan [...]

West Brom Preview

By: Martin | Comments 8 Comments

Well, the Carling Cup is here. I think the Carling Cup is always a little weird for Arsenal fans. I know I don’t really view it as nearly as important as the other 3 competitions, and it’s hard for me to get too worked up one way or the other about it. When Burnley knocked [...]

Arsenal 4-Wigan 0

Arsenal v Wigan Athleticby mortemaster
After a couple disappointing defeats, we were definitely due for a bit of a change. We needed something new to break out of our rut. Something which combined the best elements of what we had with something bold and exciting. Something attractive, yet brutally effective.
I’m speaking, of course, of Wenger’s new [...]
