  • Arsenal FC – There’s Still Hope For Nicklas Bendtner

    Arsenal FC – There’s Still Hope For Nicklas Bendtner

    Out of shape and without a match for a very long time, Nicklas Bendtner shouldn’t have looked so comfortable on the pitch, looking dominant in the air like nothing has changed. In a match that was mostly about giving very young players a chance to shine, there’s still hope for the Danish striker, who is a lot more important to Arsene Wenger than he should be.

  • Arsenal FC – Olivier Giroud Changing Opinions Quickly

    Arsenal FC – Olivier Giroud Changing Opinions Quickly

    Football fans have short memories, and anyone berating Arsene Wenger for not bringing in a striker isn’t too angry now as they see the new and improved version of Olivier Giroud, now coming with an upgraded midfield to provide him with chances, including Mesut Ozil who still needs time to settle down and a fantastic Aaron Ramsey.

  • Arsenal FC – Mesut Ozil Might Be What Saves Arsene Wenger

    Arsenal FC – Mesut Ozil Might Be What Saves Arsene Wenger

    It’s quite impossible to tell just how much at risk Arsene Wenger is because of the differences in evaluating his work between Arsenal fans and the ownership, but there’s no doubt that the arrival of Mesut Ozil can end all those questions and calls calling for his removal.

  • Arsenal FC – Arsene Wenger Doesn’t Deserve a Contract Extension

    Arsenal FC – Arsene Wenger Doesn’t Deserve a Contract Extension

    While Arsenal seem to be in quite a rush to give Arsene Wenger a contract extension, a quick look at the club’s achievements and results from the last eight seasons tells us that it’s a bit too soon to sign him on for a few more years.

  • Chelsea FC – Jose Mourinho is Their Edge in the Title Race

    Chelsea FC – Jose Mourinho is Their Edge in the Title Race

    While bringing back Jose Mourinho doesn’t guarantee Chelsea their first Premier League title this season, it does give them an edge when it comes to the managerial position, clearly superior to those manning the job with the challenging teams.

  • Tottenham Hotspur, the Team That Can’t Stop Signing Players

    Tottenham Hotspur, the Team That Can’t Stop Signing Players

    The biggest spenders in the Premier League this season are Tottenham, a team that won’t even be in the Champions League. After Paulinho, Nacer Chadli, Roberto Soldado, Etienne Capoue, Erik Lamela and Vlad Chiriches, it seems they’re still not done, with Christian Eriksen of Ajax coming next.

  • Arsenal FC – Lukas Podolski Hasn’t Forgotten How to Score

    Arsenal FC – Lukas Podolski Hasn’t Forgotten How to Score

    There’s a very good chance that the best player on the pitch for Arsenal was Aaron Ramsey in a nearly flawless display in the middle of the field as their deep-lying playmaker, but Lukas Podolski grabbed most of the headlines with a somewhat out-of-nowhere brace, removing any doubt of him making a sudden exit from the club.

    Arsenal FC – Theo Walcott Proves Once More He’s the Best This Team Has

    Maybe Champions League football brings out something else from Arsenal, who seemed composed, calm and concentrated as they made sure they’ll be in the group stage. Theo Walcott proved, and not for the first time, that he’s the most dangerous player when used correctly, while Aaron Ramsey showed that he’s probably a better player than Jack Wilshere, even if no one likes to mention it.

  • Jose Mourinho is Right – The Transfer Window Should End Sooner

    Jose Mourinho is Right – The Transfer Window Should End Sooner

    Not all the leagues in Europe begin on the same date, which is why there’s a “universal” summer transfer window deadline, but the ridiculosness of teams having to sell their players three or four matches into the season is a situation that needs to be changed, and Jose Mourinho, who usually loves to focus on himself and his club, is absolutley right in his call to change this absurd situation.

  • Arsenal FC – Arsene Wenger Doesn’t Deserve to Have His Contract Renewed

    Arsenal FC – Arsene Wenger Doesn’t Deserve to Have His Contract Renewed

    Maybe Arsene Wenger is doing what his owners are asking him to, which is maintain minimal spending while remaining in the Champions League. But it seems Arsenal have taken some sort of step back every season, with this one, or at least it’s start, looking especially disastrous in potential.
