Carling Cup tomorrow, with a home matchup against Liverpool.
As I’ve said previously, I feel a little conflicted about the competition. Do I want to win? Yes, of course. But I have mixed feelings about how we treat the competition. Because, to be clear, Arsene Wenger does not really care about winning the Carling Cup. [...]

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 [...]

With the sweet memories of the win over Chelsea fading, the mid-week Carling Cup fixture is upon us today. But before that, a few more thoughts from this past weekend. While it is a great result indeed, Arsenal still has much to prove. This is the second win over a “big four” squad this season, [...]

I know that these titles are boring and lack any kind of originality, but forgive me, I’ve already used the title of The Who song ‘The Kids Are Alright.’ However, like the previous Carling Cup fixture, it applies once again, as a squad of 19 year olds saw off a decent Wigan side.

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 [...]

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 [...]
