Slavia Prague vs The Arsenal – Getting a bit thin on the ground
Arsenal’s focus returns to the Champions League on Tuesday night as we look to cement our place in the top 8 however, the squad is getting a little thin and rotation is likely still required so this one could get a bit tight. Slavia Prague have not set the world alight in their upcoming Champions…

Burnley vs The Arsenal 0-2 – Player Ratings
Arsenal’s winning run, and clean sheets, continued on Saturday afternoon at Turf Moor as Arsenal ran out 2-0 winners, with goals in the first half coming from Viktor Gyokeres and Declan Rice. Arsenal blew Burnley away in a scintillating period in the first half which saw Bukayo Saka twice draw big saves from Martin Dubravka…

Burnley vs The Arsenal – Rest is over, time to go to work
October has been a brilliant month for Arsenal, now they have to have to really push on and start November in the same form. There are three games left until the next international break, which is the magic point for me as key players like Kai Havertz, Noni Madueke and Martin Odegaard will return after…

The Arsenal v Brighton & Hove Albion 2-0 – More to this one than just another win and clean sheet
If the last few games had been a bit dull for the neutral, this one was anything but, as a much changed Arsenal team (understandably) failed to control the game in the same way as they usually do, which lead to an end-to-end contest. Arsenal rode their luck at times during this one and were…

The Arsenal v Brighton & Hove Albion – League Cup – 2-0 Player Ratings
Kepa Arrizabalaga – 8 PLAYER OF THE MATCH Probably busier than he was expecting to be, as he made a number of key saves in the first half to keep us in the game. Also claimed his crosses and commanded his box well and it generally seemed to be a calming influence behind what was…

The Arsenal vs Brighton & Hove Abion – This one means more than just maintaining momentum
Arsenal’s form in the league has pretty much every Arsenal fan dreaming right now, but the importance of this game cannot be underestimated. As I mentioned in the title of this blog, keeping up this winning run and the momentum is part of the reason why this one matters so much however, I think it’s…

The Arsenal v Crystal Palace 1-0 – Another grind, but if we keep winning, do we care?
Another game that is unlikely to go down as a classic, yet another game that feels absolutely massive, in terms of the wider context. Arsenal went into the game knowing that Liverpool had dropped another three points away at Brentford the day before and that Manchester City also had a tricky game away at Aston…

The Arsenal v Crystal Palace – 1-0 Player Ratings
David Raya – 7 Again, no shot on target (I think), but still kept busy by Palace in other ways. Claim the crosses well late on, although they weren’t the best crosses to be fair! Distribution was good although he went quite long with a few today, but his most telling contribution was the way…

The Arsenal vs Crystal Palace – Yet another MASSIVE game
The games just seem to be getting bigger and bigger. I suppose that comes with being top of the league and being on a strong winning run. We’ve got some tough games after the international break so it seems absolutely important that we win all of these league games before the break and this is…
