It was a tense match. Many fans could not bear to watch it. But we did it. 1-0 to the Arsenal. 1 point ahead of Spurs and we are in the Champions League again. Newcastle brushed aside their horrible home form to put up a very good performance. They quickly surrounded our players and used their …
Arsenal secured an important 4-1 win against Wigan that swung the race for Champions League spots back into our favour. The Gunners began strongly before dropping off pace and getting punished.

Arsenal took another 3 points on the road as the race for CL spots look to go down to the wire. Prior to this win, QPR had drawn thrice and beaten Arsenal twice in Premier League history at Loftus Road. Even though QPR had already been relegated, Reading (also relegated) showed that such teams should …
The hotly anticipated match between the two former rivals ended in a 1-1 draw. It was a fast paced game decided by goals in the first half. The match yielded good entertainment but the result meant that both teams could not do what they had initially set out to. Arsenal faces a nervous three weeks while United will not …
Arsenal fans will be grateful for the 3 points. It was a terrible performance in which the team decided to completely shut off in the final 15 minutes. Before that, the Gunners did very little to penetrate a packed Fulham defence. Fulham played with 10 man for over 78 minutes having Sidwell sent off in the 12th …
Arsenal notched their seventh win in eight games with a 3-1 home victory under controversial conditions. The team played poorly for most of the game before being stung into action as Norwich scored with their first shot on target.

Arsenal picked up where they left off and dominated Reading from start to end. A combination of last ditch defending and some poor final touches meant that the scoreline of 4-1 was rather kind to Reading. There was concern that the interlull would slow the momentum that the Gunners had but that was put to …
How often have we played Swansea this season already? Too many. Arsenal finished a professional 2-0 win erasing painful memories of a 2-0 reverse at home.

Arsenal ended a poor week with something to smile in a last ditch 2-1 win at home against Villa. We dominated and had 26 shots with 7 on target together with 64% of the possession. How did it become a last ditch win? It does when you are Arsenal of course. First Half …
One nil to the Arsenal and that was a fair result in the end. The Gunners dominated the first half and should have been up by 3 before the half time break. The game quickly turned in the second half with Jenkinson’s sending off but the team manned up and soaked up the pressure to …
Matching a convincing 3-1 win at Upton Park last year, West Ham were hit for five as Arsenal ran out 5-1 winners in a long awaited convincing performance.

Arsenal’s chances of a top four finish are in serious doubts after suffering a second loss in a row. It was yet again a game of two halves. We were completely absent in the first but well and truly alive in the second. This report won’t be long because the things observed in this match …
The 3rd round FA Cup tie saw Arsenal draw 2-2 with Swansea. In a match that was close to being similar to the Southampton game, the Gunners were flat and uninspired, creating few meaningful chances and wasting possession. Swansea fought hard, resting some key players as Wenger chose a curious tactical line up for the …
