Arsenal went to war with their bitter rivals Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend, and in the end, the two giants of the English game drew 2-2. It was as entertaining as you would expect a game of this magnitude to be and, of course, the stakes were understandably high.

While neither team is really going to be shooting for the title this season, that’s not even really the point. The bragging rights associated with winning a game like this can be huge, and in terms of the season itself, this could be the difference between fourth and fifth. You just never know how tight it’s going to be in the Premier League, and funnily enough, we don’t think it’s all that easy to tell which team is going to be happier with this result.  .......Read more here.....

It’s the North London derby today and that is just so unbelievably exciting, to the point where we can’t quite express how happy it makes us. Well, happy is one word, with incredibly agitated being another, but you get the drift. It’s going to be a stressful ninety minutes but in the end, we’ll know who exactly owns the bragging rights between the two North London rivals.  .......Read more here.....

Arsenal went into their game against Liverpool last night knowing that they were facing an uphill battle to get anything out of it. The European champions have made a perfect start to the campaign, and they’ve done so with pretty flawless ease. In the end, the Gunners were indeed outclassed by the better team as the Reds ran out 3-1 winners at Anfield.

Throughout the first half hour of the game it looked as if Arsenal could have more of a chance than people gave them credit for, with Nicolas Pepe having a lot of joy against the team that were heavily linked with signing him. After Matip gave the hosts the lead in the 41st minute, though, it was clear to see that the momentum had turned in a big way.  .......Read more here.....

Arsenal face an uphill challenge this weekend, and even that may be putting it lightly. Even the most optimistic of Gunners fans will admit that it’s going to be tricky for them to beat Liverpool, who were able to win their first two games of the brand new Premier League season. Of course, Arsenal have also been able to do that, so in those terms you’re probably wondering why people are so scared of them.  .......Read more here.....

Arsenal were able to secure their second consecutive Premier League win of the season this weekend, as they edged past Burnley to move onto six points for the campaign. The game wasn’t exactly a slam dunk and the Clarets caused Unai Emery’s men plenty of problems, but in the end, they got the job done. Above all else, the fact that they were able to overcome adversity like that is the biggest step forward of them all.  .......Read more here.....

The expectation was that Arsenal were going to cause Burnley too many problems, but that the visitors would put up a fight. In the end that’s pretty close to how the game played out, as Unai Emery’s men made it two wins out of two in the Premier League. It’s the first time they’ve been able to do so at the start of the league season since back in 2009, which kind of tells you all that you need to know about how things have gone in the last decade or so under the tutelage of Arsene Wenger.  .......Read more here.....

It’s time to get back to business as the Premier League returns once again this weekend. The first set of fixtures certainly got us off to a good start, with a variety of really entertaining games and results to sink our teeth into. Today, we’re going to be taking a look at Arsenal’s next fixture as they prepare to go one on one with Burnley in what will serve as the official kickoff for the second matchweek of action.  .......Read more here.....

We’re not all too far away from Arsenal’s return to Premier League action, and that, in itself, is very, very exciting. The Gunners may or may not wind up having a successful season, but we all know there’s only really one way in which we can find out. The first game on the schedule for the club is going to be an interesting one, as they prepare to go head to head with Newcastle United.  .......Read more here.....

It’s almost time to dive head first into domestic football once again, and by almost time, we mean that there’s still a month or so to go – but we’re still pretty excited. Arsenal haven’t made all too many moves in the summer transfer window just yet but we somehow feel like that’s going to change at some point in the not so distant future, so for now, we’re just going to put all of that talk to one side.  .......Read more here.....

Boxing Day – Bournemouth (A)

Heading down to the south coast on Boxing Day isn’t going to be ideal, but we aren’t exactly expecting Bournemouth to do much next season. They’ll probably be down in the relegation mix, whereas Arsenal, by this point, should be right in the hunt for a place in the top four. This should be another win, no questions asked.
