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 [...]

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 [...]
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 [...]
