Emmanuel Eboue: World Class Striker
By: Martin |
3 Comments
If you haven’t seen it already, Eboue scored a goal for Ivory Coast in an international friendly against Germany yesterday.
The goal was brilliant–showing he may very well be the perfect striker: the strength of Drogba, the creativity of Henry, and the finishing of Owen. He’s the complete package, folks. But don’t take my word [...]

It’s not strictly Arsenal-related, I know, but by now I’m sure you’ve all seen the controversial goal which put France into the 2010 World Cup.
Thirteen
By: Martin | 6 Comments
Well, it never ends. Apparently Aaron Ramsey has also picked up a knock on international duty, meaning we now have fully thirteen players injured.
If you’re curious, we have 29 players listed in our first-team. Which means we are only a few injuries away from having literally more than half our team injured. Maybe there’s [...]
van Persie Out Injured; In Other News, I HATE International Friendlies
By: Martin | 27 Comments
Most of you have probably already seen this, but Robin van Persie tore an ankle ligament today, an injury which will keep him out for an estimated 2-3 months.
In what, you may ask, super-important match was he playing in to take on such an injury? Was it the World Cup? Nope. The European championships? [...]
International Call-Ups
By: Martin | 4 Comments
This happened a couple of days ago, but, you know…(shrugs). 15 Arsenal players have been called up for duty over the international break. The entire list can be found here.
Of the 15, only 5–Diaby, Gallas, and Sagna for France, Arshavin for Russia, and Song for Cameroon–are playing in meaningful senior international matches, as all [...]
And We’re Back
By: Martin | 19 Comments
Players report back to London today, and hopefully by the end of today or early tomorrow we’ll have an inventory of who picked up knocks playing in internationals. At the moment, the only one I’ve heard is Gael Clichy, who injured his thigh playing for France yesterday.
Poll: Club vs. Internationals
By: Martin | 12 Comments
This is something I’ve often kind of wondered about, so I figured it would make a decent poll. And, since there isn’t much going on in the way of actual Arsenal news and probably won’t be until the players report back at the end of the week, it at least gives us something to discuss.
The [...]
Why I Hate International Breaks
By: Martin | 6 Comments
I knew it was too much to ask for for our players to get through an international break without getting injured, and I was right. Andrei Arshavin, who had to come off injured with a groin injury against Manchester United, rushed back too early to play in yesterday’s game against Wales. Guus Hiddink, being the [...]
Theo Walcott, Arsenal, And England
By: Abby | 10 Comments
In case you haven’t heard (and if so, where have you been?), our very own Theo Walcott got a hat-trick with England in Zagreb. The 4-1 win was an amazing result, even with 10 men on the Croatia team. Croatia hasn’t lost in Zagreb since 1994, England have been generally terrible for two years (and [...]
Mid-week WCQ round up
By: travis | No Comments
More World Cup Qualifiers means more recaps. I think Abby will have some post gushing about Theo Walcott, so I’ll only briefly mention him here. And post a picture. Lot of Gunners in action, and from what I’ve heard, no major injuries.
Robin Van Persie
Started and played 69 minutes for the Netherlands in their 2-1 win [...]
