The Arsenal vs Bayern Munich 3-1 – Player Ratings
This is a special, special Arsenal team we are watching right now. I must admit I went into this one with a bit of trepidation as Bayern’s record this season, albeit mostly in the German league which is obviously no Premier League, is scary good with an average of more than 3 goals scored a…

Sunderland vs The Arsenal 2-2 – Player Ratings
Arsenal inexplicably surrendered two points in the title race by conceding a late equaliser at Sunderland, in a frustrating game in the North East on Saturday evening.

Sunderland vs The Arsenal – Biggest game of the season so far?
The headline might appear dramatic, but that’s exactly how it feels to me. At the start of the season, you would have looked at this game as ‘promoted team away, tricky due to the home fans yet the team should look to be taking three points’. There’s considerable narrative involved now though. Firstly, Sunderland have…
