That’s one view on the Arsenal side that was exposed as a pretender in the last couple of weeks, most severely yesterday against Chelsea. I think that may be a tad harsh, but facts are facts. And the fact is that we’ve faced Liverpool, Chelsea, and Manchester United 5 times since the middle of April, [...]
Arsenal v Chelsea Game Thread

Not a whole lot to play for today, aside from third place. Kind of depressing to think about in that fashion, but reality can be a harsh mistress. Nevertheless, there’s no reason why Arsenal won’t bring their A game today. The big news of the day is that Arshavin misses out on the 18, as [...]

Arsenal 1-2 Chelsea Highlights

In case you missed it I dug up the highlights.
Enjoy. Or ignore them. Sad day to lose another chance at a trophy. It was a bad performance that resulted in a deserved loss. Can’t really add more to what Martin already said.
Ugh

Well, what can you say about that game? We played very poorly, we didn’t deserve to win, and so we didn’t.

Emirates Turns into a Field Hospital
By: Martin | 2 Comments

Gallas–out for season (knee)
Almunia–out 3 weeks (ankle)
Clichy–out 2 weeks (back)
van Persie–possibly fit for Saturday (groin)
Eduardo–possibly fit for Saturday (groin)
Rosicky–”not close to coming back” (hamstring)
That is ummm….not good. In case you needed reminding, Saturday marks the beginning of a brutal stretch of [...]

What a lovely, lovely result. Forget that it came with a little luck. Forget that our central defender turned the ball into his own net. And forget what has happened in the past few weeks, and simply enjoy the events of yesterday. It was a sight that I found hard to believe, from the first [...]
