Arsenal 1-2 Aston Villa: Miserable send-off at the Grove provokes premature post mortem Tue 17th May 2011
With Chelsea conceding a last minute equaliser just before kick-off, there were some eternal optimists at the Grove who could see Chelsea’s tough final fixture at Goodison Park as a route for Arsenal to sneak back into a respectable second position. Sadly, another demoralising showing could well see us finish fourth and the sparse ‘lap of appreciation’ suggested Arsenal are heading towards breaking point; too many over paid, underperforming players and too many fans who can barely afford tickets, reluctantly paying their wages. |
Man Utd v Arsenal Preview: Wounded Giants Will Brawl for Supremacy. Sat 12th Mar 2011 Now we are out of the Champions League Wenger will attach more importance to this match and will be more willing to accept a replay than his Old Trafford counterpart but we will have nine thousand fans who would love to see a more emphatic reaction from our beleaguered squad. |
Barcelona v Arsenal Preview: The Impossible Question. Tue 08th Mar 2011 How should Arsene Wenger approach this match? If we try to contain the irrepressible Barcelona we will struggle to create chances and even just a 1-0 defeat would knock us out of another competition. Should we adopt our usual style we will leave too much space on the pitch and will be overrun as we almost were in the first leg. Ideally, the manager needs to find a compromise. |
Arsenal 0-0 Sunderland: Sluggish start damages title hopes Sat 05th Mar 2011 For the first hour we edged a gentle game of football in which both teams struggled to dictate. However, our midfield trio of Wilshere, Diaby and Denilson were too sluggish when moving the ball forward and Wilshere's position at the head of the triangle negated the influence that he is usually able to impress on a game so we were not quick enough to exploit the space in the middle third. |
Arsenal 2-1 Huddersfield: Another late penalty from Fabregas ensures FA Cup progress Tue 01st Feb 2011 This time the captain’s late spot kick means that we now avoid a replay which is a relief after the same scenario in the last round could only salvage one. We started off well, much better than at home to Leeds, but despite having over 80% possession in the first ten minutes we had to wait until Niklas Bendtner’s deflected effort in the 22nd minute before we could ripple the opposition net. |
