Transfer News and Player Movement

Now for some good news

By: travis | Comments 2 Comments

I’ll admit the last week has been rough. All that I’ve posted are rumors of this player or that player leaving. I’m done with the negative - at least for this post. Time to bring in some good news about player movement, along with a quick few thoughts about the close of the season.
Before mentioning […]

Auf wiedersehen Jens, Arsenal win

By: travis | Comments No Comments

With the news of Flamini leaving now coming from the foremost news source, Arsenal took care of business in a particular unconvincing fashion. It was an interesting game more than it entertained, with the only goal coming from a powerful header from Dane Nicklas Bendtner. That brings his tally to nine on the season, a […]

More Flamini news

By: travis | Comments 3 Comments

The latest report states that Flamini has agreed to a four year deal with Milan. Hopefully, this is for real and the whole thing can be put to bed. It came down to money in the end, as Milan were willing to pay more than Arsenal. Wenger wasn’t willing to break the bank to keep […]

Flamini out, possible replacements?

By: travis | Comments 3 Comments

With Flamini now supposedly off to AC Milan, it’s time to admit what has been inevitable for the last few months. Arsenal loses a player of unquestioned toughness and grit to some team in the Serie A. Best of luck to him, and I guess in the end money talks. Flamini had a great season […]

Rams to the slaughter…

By: travis | Comments No Comments

Sadly, another meaningless game. Unless of course, both Chelsea and Man United lose all their remaining games. If that happens (odds are about 1 in 10000000000000000), Arsenal wins the league - assuming winning their remaining games. Since that isn’t going to happen, I’ll focus on today’s match against the already relegated Derby County.
Last match against […]

Hleb out for the remainder of the season

By: travis | Comments No Comments

Alexander Hleb has been suspended for three games for ‘violent conduct’, aka bitch slapping Graham Murty of Reading. I recommend you pop over here to see the video, augmented by Murty’s reaction. I’m not criticizing just him, but players need to cut that out. Stop fishing for cards. Murty looks like he’s a bit tougher […]

Little Things

By: Abby | Comments 5 Comments

Now that the season is all but over for us, just about everyone has been busy focusing on the next one. And I’m not exempt from that ‘everyone’ either- I always find transfer rumors endlessly entertaining, even if they’re a bit far-fetched. Or especially if they’re a bit far-fetched. Depends on how long the transfer […]

Almunia’s Re-Upped, But…

By: Abby | Comments 5 Comments

So at least one of Arsenal’s main performers this year has renewed his contract. Unfortunately for my liking, it’s Manuel Almunia and not Mathieu Flamini. Almunia says he wants to finish his career at Arsenal, which is fine. He’s been fine. Better than I expected since taking over the starting spot, but I continue to […]

Confident that Flamster will return plus Chelsea preview

By: travis | Comments 1 Comment

A slow newsday this morning as the team prepares for what looks like to be the biggest game of the year. I wrote yesterday about Flamini’s contract situation. Wenger is confident things will be settled in April. This work really nicely for us.
Chelsea Preview
The Gunners biggest test of the season. With their slump in form […]

Constant News

By: Abby | Comments 3 Comments

While I’ve been settling into my new gig here, things continue to happen around the Arsenal world to discuss. A lot of it is about this bit of a slump we find us in, which I’m trying not to think about. I have a thing where I don’t read the blogs (as much) when Arsenal […]
