“Rating and slating Arsenal’s January transfer targets” is a guest post written by Zane Wilcox – an avid Arsenal supporter and Arsenal FC Blog reader from the United States. * * * There is no doubt that we need a new striker with van Persie sidelined. But who? I think it should be a more […]

Being the good, kind gentleman he is, Arsene Wenger very generously participated in a live webchat on the official Arsenal website last night. Although a lot of that chat was quite trivial, he did make some interesting comments about Robin van Persie’s ankle injury and revealed his thoughts on the need for a replacement. After […]
Andrei Arshavin. Andrei Arshavin. Andrei Andrei Arshavin, Andrei Arshavin, Andrei Andrei Arshavin. Is there really anything else worth talking about? The big news of today/yesterday is that Arsenal have agreed a deal with Zenit St Petersburg for You Know Who (and no, I don’t mean Voldemort). However, there is one teensy-weensy catch; it’s yet to […]
Sweet mother of mercy – what is going on with Andrei Arshavin? One minute the deal’s on, the next minute it’s off. Then it’s on again, then it’s off again. It reminds me off that clip from The Simpsons where Mrs. Krabappel keeps teasing Bart with a yo-yo. It’s cruel and evil and I don’t […]
Hello to you all. I realise this is a very late blog for the day, but football training and some bizarre inner-city traffic means it is after 10pm in Brisbane as I write to you. And in truth, there’s very little to write about apart from a certain Russian playmaker. The Andrei Arshavin transfer saga […]
Observe these quotes from agent Dennis Lachter about Arsenal’s move for Andrei Arshavin: “Unfortunately in this matter there is no movement. The sticking point is, of course, money and rather the totally unacceptable amount of Zenit’s demands for Andrei. The position of the club remains unchanged and that is the reality that we have faced for a long […]
Hello, hello. How are we today? It’s an action-packed Tuesday post so sit tight and enjoy. I’ll start with Arsene Wenger, who has been talking about our recent form and the struggles that our nearest challengers have had lately. Commenting on the lucky escapes by Manchester United, Chelsea and Aston Villa over the weekend and […]
Arsenal’s seven-game unbeaten streak extended to eight over the weekend as two late goals from Samir Nasri and Nicklas Bendtner ensured a 3-1 win away to Hull City. Emmanuel Adebayor’s first-half header was cancelled out by another header by Daniel Cousin on 65 minutes before Nasri and Bendtner produced late efforts to win the match. Arsene Wenger […]
F@&*! I just wrote an absolutely epic post for today covering Arsene Wenger’s thoughts on Andrei Arshavin, Manchester City and Kaka, injuries in the squad as well as the game against Hull. And now, thanks to an unfortunate click of the wrong button, it’s all gone. It’s a blogger’s worst nightmare come to life when […]
It’s good afternoon from a very sunny, very hot day in Brisbane. It’s the sort of weather that someone like Arseblogger over in Ireland would kill for even though I would desperately prefer some rain. The grass is always greener and all that. I’m going to begin today with Dennis Bergkamp. Those who have not […]
