AFCB’s tactics guru Andrew Enloe examines how Theo Walcott helps the Arsenal defence… Saturday’s match against Blackburn was the first real test of the season; nobody is really expected to win at Anfield, and last week’s match against Blackpool was only going to finish one way.

Arsenal were rewarded with all three points for a concentrated and energetic performance against Blackburn at Ewood Park. The home side caused trouble for us throughout the match with their game plan to attack aerially via long balls but our boys stood up well, scoring two goals either side of Mame Biram Diouf’s equaliser to [...]

AFCB writer Daniel Brookes comments on Theo Walcott in ‘From The Left Wing’… You have to feel sorry for Theo Walcott sometimes.

Everybody still feeling good today? I know I am. With a trip to Burnley just around the corner there’s little time to bask in the glory that was Sunday night, but if you ask me that’s probably a good thing. The Christmas period usually means plenty of games and we have a real chance to [...]

Good morning to you all from a fairly chilly Brisbane. No alcoholic beverages to be found near me today, just a piping hot green tea and some Vegemite and butter on toast to keep me company. In Saturday’s post the idea was raised by regular commenter ‘Old Timer’ to open up a bit of a [...]

Greetings all and welcome to another thrilling post at the Arsenal FC Blog. Why is it thrilling, you ask? Well, for two reasons, I answer. One, it’s full of transfery goodness and two, I’ve had a couple of beers. Huzzah! There’s no better place to start than with Thomas Vermaelen, who right about now should [...]

Back on the 23rd of February, with Arsenal struggling to score and sitting 6 points behind Aston Villa, I made the following statement: “Once we break our 0-0 rut, which is nothing more than an excruciating novelty, we will be fine. Our defence looks strong and so does our goalkeeper. Van Persie again looked sharp, [...]

It’s the second leg of Arsenal’s Champions League tie with Roma in Italy tonight – and what an interesting game it looks to be. Arsene Wenger and our boys will take with them to Rome a 1-0 lead from the first leg at The Emirates. The general consensus from that match was that although we [...]

Ahoy there. It’s absolutely pissing down rain tonight in Brisbane and according to news reports there’s a chance we might even lose power. Scary/fun stuff. Hopefully it will hold out just long enough for me to get through this. The manager has delivered two interesting pieces of news today. The first of which is the predictable [...]

Hello again. How’re you going? There’s only one real item on the agenda today and that’s the unfortunate news that Theo Walcott has dislocated his shoulder while training for the English national team and faces up to three months on the sidelines.

It’s pretty self-explanatory really - Theo Walcott has dislocated his shoulder on international duty. Just how long he will be out for is not known yet but it’s certainly a bad piece of news for Arsenal.

A very late, very short blog which is sure to annoy the masses but could well tickle the fancy of the unreliable and impulsive among us. You know who you are. Arsene Wenger has explained why he rested Emmanuel Adebayor against West Ham, suggesting that he overused him last season and doesn’t want to do [...]
