It’s bottom-of-the-table Portsmouth in the league tonight in another important game. With Chelsea winning last night to end their little blip it’s vital that we bring three points back from Fratton Park to keep up our chase at the top. Cesc Fabregas will of course be absent after tweaking his hamstring against Aston Villa, although [...]

The final round of World Cup qualifiers concluded yesterday evening and it was a mixed night for the Arsenal players on display. William Gallas helped France qualify by scoring the decisive goal in their 1-1 extra-time draw with Ireland, heading home from one yard out in characteristic fashion after ex-Arsenal captain Thierry Henry’s clear handball.

OK, I’m back again for my first “proper” post in almost a fortnight after a rather delightful holiday in Malaysia. I’m quite relaxed and refreshed and ready to get back into the blog and back into the Arsenal. But where to begin? I thought I’d run through the latest Arsenal news by looking at it [...]

It’s Friday night right now in Brisbane and not for the first time this week I have to be super-quick. Here’s a quick round-up of things going on involving Arsenal in the last two days: Arsenal have decided to contest the two-game ban handed out to Eduardo for diving. While it is certainly to be [...]

It’s a very late, very brief post today in the wake of the closing of the transfer window. By now you will surely know that it was a hugely uneventful final day, with no new signings coming in. I said in yesterday’s post that I was hoping a defensive midfielder would come in to cover [...]

Unfortunately I simply have not had time today to get up a decent match report from last night’s 3-1 win over Celtic. I can assure you, however, that I will have it up in tomorrow’s post as well as a full preview of the Manchester United game. Most of the fallout from the game has of [...]

Today is the fourth in a series of posts reviewing Arsenal’s 2008/09 season. Last week I reviewed the performances of our goalkeepers and defenders and on Tuesday it was the midfielders. Today it’s the attackers. Carlos Vela It’s been a season of good progress for Carlos Vela. Despite having limited opportunities he scored a memorable hat-trick in the Carling Cup [...]

Arsenal play Roma tomorrow night for a place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Our team takes a 1-0 first-leg lead with them to Rome, safe in the knowledge that a clean sheet will see them through while a goal would leave their Italian opponents needing to score three. In this pre-preview of Arsenal’s [...]

With a vitally important trip to Rome later in the week, yesterday’s comfortable 3-0 win over Burnley in the FA Cup was just what the doctor ordered. Rarely in the same will you see three goals of such gorgeous technical quality. Yet Carlos Vela’s scintillating run and delightful chip, Emmanuel Eboue’s fine low finish and Eduardo’s [...]

Is it just me or is the world glowing a little brighter than it usually does today? A wonderful win, Eduardo’s return and the promise of Andrey Arshavin making his debut on Saturday has got me feeling mighty fine. Judging by the comments from yesterday’s post there’s a feeling of optimism bubbling within our fans [...]

As far as returns from year-long absences go, Eduardo’s wasn’t all that bad, was it? A 60-minute performance full of zest and zip and many other things starting with ‘Z’ was capped off with two goals as the Brazilian returned from his leg break to help Arsenal to a 4-0 win over Cardiff last night. [...]

So the football resumes tonight – with Arsenal hosting Cardiff City at the Emirate – and that means the blog is back too. Did you miss me? In truth I had a highly tumultuous weekend. The fun of Mama Fry’s 50th on Saturday was ruined by subsequent food poisoning I dealt with for the rest [...]

Hello there. I trust you’re all feeling a bit better than you were yesterday. I’m hoping that the London-based supporters amongst us were able to give their Tottenham-supporting colleagues a great deal of rubbish about failing to score against 10 men. An international break week (or ‘week break’, I can never work out which way [...]
