Arsenal fans had to endure a few nervous minutes at the end of the Gunners 1-0 win in Newcastle on May 19, but all’s well that ends well as the club managed to finish in fourth place in the English Premier League this season to earn a berth in the qualifying stages of next season’s [...]
Arsenal remains in the driver’s seat after a thorough 4-1 win over Wigan Athletic at the rain-soaked Emirates Stadium on Tuesday, May 14.

Arsenal put in another workmanlike effort again at Loftus Road on Sat. May 4, to earn a 1-0 draw against recently-relegated Queens Park Rangers and moved into third place in the Premier League table. The scoring was done before many supporters got to their seats as Theo Walcott banged in the game’s only goal after [...]
For many football fans and bettors it was just inevitable that Robin van Persie would somehow manage to find the back of the net for Man United on his return to the Emirates on April 27. They were right. The Dutch striker was chopped down in the penalty area by Bacary Sagna after he [...]
The result was a lot better than the performance on Saturday April 20 when Arsenal snuck in and out of Craven Cottage and took three points from cross town rivals Fulham. An argument could be made that if Fulham didn’t have Steve Sidwell sent off in the 12th minute of play then points would have [...]
The menu of the day featured a main course of Arsenal vs Everton at the Emirates in London on Tuesday April 16, but it failed to live up to expectations. The rather uneventful match saw both teams drop two valuable points in a 0-0 draw. Arsenal remains in third place for now and should [...]
Once Arsenal’s big guns all took to the pitch late in the game the club woke up in time to slam home three late goals for a 3-1 win over a pesky Norwich side. The three points move the Gunners into third place for the time being with 59 points as they leapfrogged over [...]
Midfielder Tomas Rosicky was the unlikely hero for Arsenal on Saturday afternoon as he scored both goals in the Gunners 2-1 win at West Brom. Arsenal hung on after taking a 2-0 lead as Per Mertesacker was sent off in the 70th minute with a red card and also conceded a penalty on the play. [...]
Arsenal crept closer to Chelsea and Tottenham with a solid 2-0 win at Swansea on Saturday and kept their second away clean sheet in a row. The game lacked drama though as the Gunners were more or less in control of the proceedings right from the opening kickoff and very rarely seemed to be in [...]
You can’t criticize a team that went into Munich and beat the Bundesliga leaders 2-0 in their own backyard. However, it was still a case of too little too late for Arsenal as they needed a third goal to secure a spot in the European Champions League quarterfinals and lost on the away-goals rule after [...]
Champions League football is still possible for Arsenal next season, but there’s no denying that it’s going to be quite an uphill battle after dropping a 2-1 decision to Tottenham at White Hart Lane on Sunday March 3. Third-place Spurs are now seven points clear of the Gunners while fourth-place Chelsea sits five ahead of [...]
It was a nervous 94 minutes for Arsenal fans and manager Arsene Wenger at Emirates Stadium on Saturday afternoon, but thanks to midfield maestro Santi Cazorla the Gunners took all three points from a game Aston Villa side with a 2-1 win. Cazorla opened and closed the scoring in the game with the winner, his [...]
Arsenal have dug themselves a hole so deep that it’s going to be nearly impossible to climb out of after dropping a 3-1 decision at home on Feb. 19 to Germany’s Bayern Munich in the first leg of their round-of-16 tie in the European Champions League. It was a rather sloppy affair in the first [...]
Arsenal’s one and only chance to break their long trophy drought this season is to become the champions of Europe by capturing the European Champions League. Everything else has flown out the window now with the club being eliminated from the FA Cup in the fifth round on Sat. Feb. 16 with a less than [...]
Arsenal battled it out to the very end in grinding out a hard-earned 1-0 win at Sunderland on Saturday Feb. 9 even though they were down to 10 men after 62 minutes. They controlled the match in the first half, but started to lose the plot a little after the break as Carl Jenkinson received [...]
Arsenal’s Theo Walcott and Jack Wilshere were arguably the best two players for England at Wembley on Wednesday Feb. 6 when the Three Lions managed to pull off an impressive 2-1 win, their first over the South Americans in the past 23 years. Man of the match Wilshere was easily the best player on the [...]
Arsenal’s pedestrian 1-0 win over a toothless Stoke side could see them gain points on every club that stands between them and the coveted fourth-place position in the table this weekend. With Rafael Benitez’s Chelsea dropping more points via a 3-2 last-minute loss in Newcastle and Everton fighting back from a 3-1 deficit to draw [...]
Sixth-place Arsenal didn’t lose any ground on Chelsea, Tottenham, and Liverpool on Wed. Jan. 30 with their 2-2 home draw against Liverpool, but they didn’t gain any on them either. However, they did fall a further two points behind fifth-place Everton. It was another game of two very different halves and while the team can [...]
Arsenal did just enough to squeak by Brighton and Hove Albion 3-2 on Saturday Jan. 26 on the south coast and advance to the fifth round of the FA Cup. However, they had to bring the big guns off the bench to do it as Theo Walcott shot home the winner in the 85th minute [...]
Some days Arsenal create chance after chance, but just can’t put the ball in the net. On other occasions they seem to have the Midas touch as everything they do ends up past the opposing keeper. Their London derby against West Ham at the Emirates on Jan. 23 was a prime example of the latter [...]
When Arsenal took to the snowy Stamford Bridge pitch at 2:30 on Jan. 20 they showed they were fully prepared to take on third-place Chelsea. The only problem was the kick off was at 1:30. This was truly a tale of two halves. Chelsea dominated in the first stanza and took a 2-0 lead into [...]
Arsenal didn’t have much of a problem outplaying a less-than impressive Swansea side at the Emirates in London on Jan. 16, but they did have trouble putting the ball in the back of keeper Michael Vorm’s net. It took an 86th- minute goal by English international midfielder Jack Wilshere to guarantee a 1-0 win over [...]
Arsenal left Wales a little dejected on Sunday Jan. 6 after being held to a 2-2 draw in their Third Round tie of the FA Cup by Swansea. The Gunners allowed a late goal by Danny Graham in the 87th minute to level the score at 2-2 after taking the lead themselves just four minutes [...]
Being unpredictable is so predictable for Arsenal. You just never know what you’re going to get with this team once they take to the pitch. Their 1-1 draw in Southampton on New Year’s Day was a prime example of this. They’re basically consistently inconsistent and with the aid of an own goal and one which [...]
Arsenal blew the doors off of a weakened Newcastle side 7-3 at the Emirates Stadium on Dec. 29 in a thoroughly entertaining finale to 2012. However, don’t let the final score fool you, Newcastle was neck and neck with the Gunners right up until the 69th minute and also had 56 per cent of ball [...]
