I am going to be relatively brief today, but I just wanted to gauge opinion on what type of future Jay Simpson can have at Arsenal. The 20-year-old recently signed a new long-term deal with the club, so Arsene Wenger obviously rates him highly – but what do you think? As we all know, Simpson [...]

ARSENAL: IS TOURE OFF?
If you believed the recent reports then you would be led to believe that Kolo Toure is destined to leave Arsenal in January and possibly head for Manchester City. I’ve not really been taking these reports/rumours seriously as I’ve always believed Toure would be the last player you expect to leave Arsenal, and by all [...]

TRANSFER WINDOW NEARS AND ARSENAL ARE SIGNING KAKA, IBRAHIMOVIC AND BENZEMA
Well, we’re not really signing any of the players mentioned in the subject, but it won’t be long before we’re linked to all of them. It does seem that the silly time of the season has started, it’s the time where we are absolutely linked with every player around. The rumours regarding Arshavin are heating [...]

ASTON VILLA 2-2 ARSENAL: LATE KNIGHT DRAMA
Zat Knight scored an injury time equaliser for Aston Villa after Arsenal took a 2-0 lead only to let it slip. I don’t want to say “I told you so” but read my post here and you’ll find that I once again predicted the score. Maybe I should start betting on these games. Anyway, the [...]

FABREGAS OUT FOR UP TO 4 MONTHS: BLESSING IN DISGUISE?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m totally in shock by the news that our talisman Cesc Fabregas could be out of action for up to 4 months, and without him we’ll struggle to stamp our authority in the Champions League, and that is really our biggest hope of some decent silverware this season. However, with the [...]

ARSENAL v LIVERPOOL: GOT TO BE A DRAW
When we faced Man United and Chelsea this year, I was confident enough put my neck out and predict an Arsenal win in both games. With Liverpool, it’s a different story. They are hard to break down, they stick 10 men behind the ball and they rely on that one goal to win a game, [...]

WENGER: “BIG FOUR” BUBBLE READY TO BURST
Arsene Wenger has finally said what everyone else has been thinking. The Arsenal boss has admitted that the well known ‘big four’ - who have dominated the Premier League during his 12 year tenure – will not continue their strangle hold over everyone else for much longer. Speaking as Arsenal sit 5th in the league, [...]

MIDDLESBRO 1-1 ARSENAL: SILLY SEASON CONTINUES
Going into every game this season against the mid-table and lower teams, you really have no idea what to expect. I’m never confident we’ll beat anyone outside of the top four this season, and its getting ridiculous. Anyway, we went to the Riverside and got a point, which might be considered a good point if [...]

MICHAEL OWEN TO SIGN FOR ARSENAL
I’m sticking my neck out and I’m going to predict Arsenal sign Michael Owen in January in time to join us for next season. Owen’s contract is up in the summer, and I can’t see him sticking with Newcastle, and if he did he would’ve signed a contract already. Arsene Wenger has always spoken of [...]

ARSENAL 1-0 WIGAN ATHLETIC: ARSENAL THIRD FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS
Arsenal moved up to third in the Premiership after a 1-0 win against Wigan Athletic, until Man United beat Sunderland 1-0 a couple of hours later to knock us back down to fourth. Arsenal struggled to get going today, and if it wasn’t for a couple of magnificent saves from Almunia then this could’ve been [...]
