Theo out for Three Months

0

This sucks. Walcott was injured in England training, getting ready for a pointless international friendly. He's set for surgery soon, and if there was a player aside from Cesc who we couldn't afford to lose, it was Theo.

Wenger, please sign someone in January. I feel like all we can do is hold on until reinforcements can be brought in.

Can Arsenal save their season by beating Manchester United?

2
Here we find ourselves, just over a quarter of the way through the season and the usual four-horse race seems to have already become a three-horse race.

Tuesday Thoughts

1

Today is a day of rest for the Gunners, and with the injury list beginning to read more and more like a first XI, it's a welcome sight for a team that is already looking weary. All you can do is shake your head and wonder why the boss was so stubborn as to not bolster the squad. I'm not going to squabble about Hleb, Flamini or Gilberto, but the likes of Jack Wilshere and Kieran Gibbs providing depth ahead of the latest CL fixture, it's a growing concern.

Europe’s Best Are Running SCARED, Insists Gunners Ace

0
Theo Walcott believes Arsenal's 5-2 demolition of Fenerbahce has sent shockwaves through the Champions League and Europe's elite will now be 'scared' to face Arsenal's young guns.

Arsenal 3-1 Everton

1

Optimism reigns after this win? Not yet. Three points is three points, especially after a shaky start. But it wasn't as easy as the final score might indicate. Plus, Kolo Toure will now miss an undetermined amount of time with a shoulder injure. That could mean the starting centrebacks, Gallas and Toure, might not feature midweek.

10 Things We Learned in the Premier League

Premier League - Week 6

3

Stoke 0 - 2 Chelsea
Chelsea are back on top of the Premier League after a solid 2-0 victory over Stoke. Jose Bosingwa joined the attack on many occasions from his right back position, and he was rewarded with a goal in the 36th minute. Bosingwa got behind the defense, running on to a nice lobbed pass from Frank Lampard, and lashed the ball just inside the far post.

Hull City put 2 past Arsenal at the Emirates to collect 3 points

1
It started promising for Arsenal; great passing football, a constant threat to score; but the first half ended goalless.

One of Theo Walcott's runs came off in the second half, and Cesc was there to tap it in, although it ended up being an own goal (it almost looked like Cesc got a touch). Click to continue reading...

Hull see off the might of Arsenal

From The Sublime To The Ridiculous

I defy anyone who loves football to say they did not admire some of the beautiful play displayed by the Arse at the weekend.

I know there are times when they can appear quite mediocre and don't quite get it together. But when they do they really do.

You will probably think I'm going over the top but when I see them play like that it is truly like watching beautiful choreography. Click to continue reading...
