Arsenal supporters didn’t expect the team to have dropped so many league points already, and it could be another three points by Saturday afternoon. Both Emmanuel Adebayor and Robin Van Persie will miss the clash with Manchester United, while the defence let in four goals last time they played a league match at the Emirates.

A few weeks ago, if one of the Gunners’ key players was crocked for a few weeks, you might have legitimately claimed that this was a blow to Arsenal’s title hopes. However, after their 2-1 defeat at Stoke, there are less and less people who believe that the North London club can get anywhere near […]

There should have been scenes of jubilation in the home team’s changing area after Wednesday night’s match, but instead there was widespread fury according to this source. Two late goals from Tottenham deprived Arsenal of the victory they had seemed certain of landing, prompting angry exchanges between the Gunners players and their manager.

Strange things can happen in derby matches, with players letting the occasion get the better of them. However, there can’t have been too many occasions when the visiting team score two goals at the death to square the match 4-4.

Another day, another quote from Robert Pires, who must have a direct line to someone at Setanta. The ex-Arsenal winger has been waxing lyrical about Arsenal’s youngsters and Cristiano Ronaldo already this week, and now he’s chosen to pass comment on an Arsenal forward who was regularly linked with a move away from the Emirates […]

Jose Mourinho might now be residing in Italy, but that doesn’t mean that he’s out of the English media spotlight. It’s clear that he’s afraid of being forgotten in the United Kingdom, which would explain why he regularly feels the need to comment on an aspect of the Premier League, and this statement is arguably […]

Ian Wright is a man that changes his opinion like the weather, as any reader his Sun column will testify. On Monday evening, he was keen to tell TalkSPORT listeners that Arsenal needed a striker in the David Villa or Ruud Van Nistelrooy mode, and that their current front line just isn’t up to the […]

Have Arsenal got back on track after their 4-0 thumping of FC Twente?
