Back to the Premier League today with Wigan coming to The Emirates. News is that Szczesny is to continue in goal today with Fabianski still ruled out with injury but Chamakh and Denilson have recovered – good news about Chamakh but the latter, well I hope he doesn’t start anyway. I hope we field the […]

Ok, Leeds up tonight at Elland Road in a 3rd round replay of the FA Cup. Wenger said earlier in the week that he wants to go for all four competitions, he also said he will buy a Centre Half following the ‘breakdown’ of Vermaelen and the injury sustained by Sebastian Squillaci. The team selection […]
Today sees a short trip across London to face West Ham, a side that we huffed and puffed against at home but just managed to sneak a goal with only minutes left on the clock. Alex Song was the hero that day but the win was less than convincing. Back then it didn’t matter so […]
Andrey Arshavins agent has suggested that Juventus are interested in taking our little Russian to play in Italy this month. This one’s quite interesting as no matter which article I click on for more information, it’s gone. Draw from that what you wish 😉 Onto something we all know anyway, Sebastian Squillaci is out for […]
Ok, I don’t mean for us but that is the view of Leeds boss Simon Grayson. Last season and at the same stage of the FA Cup competition Manchester United were battered in their own back yard by Leeds United, well, 1-0. But be honest, if you and I all supported Leeds it would have […]
Same team that we played against Brum, same grit, same fight, same attitude, same result please…. The home fixture against the newly rich kids in the Premier League takes place tonight – I for one am glad that it will be out the way before Roberto Mancini go crazy in the January sales, if you […]
Hugo Rodallega and Tom Cleverley were the stand outs for Wigan at the weekend when they travelled to Wolverhampton and went home with all three points. Rodallega scored an acrobatic goal from six yards out and Cleverley doubled the lead not long after. Wolves battled and got one back but despite having all the play they couldn’t nab […]
Ok, I am a self-confessed Take That fan and for me the best thing that happened in the music world this year was Robbie swallowing his pride and going back to sing with others and reform the original group. But yes, this is a football blog, no, not just a football blog, it’s an Arsenal blog […]
Well if you listen to the Stoke manager they are, doesn’t he suggest Stoke City aren’t a dirty side, they play a wonderful passing game… What a load of tosh, Stoke are all about long throws, hoof ball and getting in the faces of the opposition. Well, how about we play that way today? We […]
Ok, tongue in cheek with the title, well a little…. Yesterday we kind of covered the years we won the league and how this fixture played a big part in our destiny. What I did miss though and in all honesty never knew until our resident blogger Rocastle pointed out is that the number eleven […]
I’ve just seen that the Mr Ego of the refereeing world, Howard Webb is our official for the Monday night fixture at Old Trafford. I truly think he is up there with some of the worst we have seen in recent years yet he’s supposed to be the best the English Premier League has on […]
Who would have wagered that we’d have to go till the last day of the Champions League in our easiest group on paper but somehow we managed to bottle it. Losing away to Braga and Shaktar was very demoralising but we have to finish the task at hand in order to qualify. Partizan, have lost all of […]
