By: Martin | Comments 3 Comments

So almost without us (or me, anyway) even realizing it, we appear to possibly have a goalkeeping controversy on our hands.

Happy Birthday, Arsene Wenger (UPDATED)

By: Martin | Comments 4 Comments

60 years young today.

What’s he doing to celebrate? Probably having some kind of big, lavish party, with Elton John playing songs while young starlets mill around drinking champagne? How about it, Arsene?:
No, I have nothing to celebrate. It will be very quiet. I have the AGM. We have a big game on Sunday again [...]

There’s Only One Arsene Wenger

By: Martin | Comments 15 Comments

Thirteen years ago today, Arsene Wenger officially became Arsenal’s manager. This officially makes him Arsenal’s longest-tenured manager, so I thought it might be worth taking a second to look back at what he’s meant to the club.

By: Martin | Comments 14 Comments

Arsenal Holdings, PLC just released a summary of the financial results for last season. It all seems to be good news, and it sounds like the club improved in pretty much every financial category over 2007-2008:

Kolo Toure Out to City?

By: travis | Comments 32 Comments

Could Arsene Wenger really sell another player to the Eastlands? News this morning is rampant that Kolo Toure is on his way out to City for a tidy sum of £15 million. While other outlets are reporting this as a done deal, we’ll have to wait and see what the clubs say.
One of the strongest [...]

Wenger’s Dilemma

By: Martin | Comments 9 Comments

Hope everyone had a nice weekend. As was covered in the comments, we came away with a disappointing 2-2 draw with Barnet in Saturday’s friendly. While we shouldn’t ever really come away with anything less than a win against a League 2 side, this was a friendly very early in the preseason which didn’t feature [...]

Adebayor & Citeh — Inevitable at this point?

By: travis | Comments 6 Comments

As Martin pointed out yesterday, new rumors have cropped up about Emmanuel Adebayor going to Manchester City. Well those rumors appear to be gaining steam, as the Daily Mail is reporting today that a fee of £25 million has been agreed upon.
At first glance, this is a puzzling move, as City rewards Adebayor for what [...]

Who Are You?: Thomas Vermaelen

By: Martin | Comments 14 Comments

I know I’m a little late to the party on this–I was out of town all weekend and not really online very much. But as has been mentioned in the comments section and as travis mentioned yesterday, there are quite a lot of reports that Arsenal has had a bid accepted for Ajax defender Thomas [...]
