® Wikimedia 1-0 to the Arsenal. Fans of the George Graham era must be proud. Three points secured and 3rd in the table. Full credit to the boys in red but this was no game to write home about. Arsenal started off well enough, as usual attacking down the flanks….

In our last game, the Arsenal came back to something of a recognizable approach and execution! Standard Liege may not be the standard bearers of top-quality football, but they came to play. They pressed us too as I had a feeling they might. What I didn’t expect is how well…
For the second time running, Arsenal youngsters in a midweek cup competition with less pressure on the outcome and more freedom from the manager than our full strength ever gets in the league dazzled the Emirates and romped their Belgian counterparts on way to a resounding 4-0 victory. Bellerin…
Arsenal came away with a point at Old Trafford against an awful ManU side, but lost some more of its soul in the process. Some positive signs in defense where ManU were hardly a threat, but disappointing in attack, yet again. For a brief period of about 5 minutes, we…

The only certainty is the opposition and their ever certain chance of causing the upset. Nottingham Forest was no different. It was…
Aston Villa is still on my mind. Has there ever been such an exhilarating, and at the same time, such an exasperating victory in Arsenal history? I can’t think of one. It’s 3 points won though, and that’s nothing to be sniffed at. Other benefits include Pepe’s debut goal –…
Arsenal triumphed over Aston Villa 3-2 after falling behind twice in the 20th and 60th minute, first to McGinn who stered a cross into the back of the net and then a neat near post flick by Wesley from Grealish put them up 1-2. But the Gunners roared back….
