Arsenal had to go through the wars against West Ham United on Saturday night, but in the end, they were able to get the job done as they secured their second straight win of the new Premier League season. The Hammers put up a pretty good fight and looked like they were going to come away with a result, but a late goal from youngster Eddie Nketiah ensured that the Gunners kept up their strong 100% start to the new season.

After the game, manager Mikel Arteta spoke with the media in the wake of what turned out to be a pretty tense affair.  .......Read more here.....

Arsenal are absolutely flying to start off the new Premier League season, from the positive signing of Gabriel to beating Fulham 3-0 to getting Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to sign a new contract with the club. This weekend, they’ll be attempting to keep that positive run of form going when they take part in their second straight London derby of the campaign – this time against West Ham United.

Mikel Arteta took part in his usual pre-match press conference prior to the game against the Hammers, and it’s safe to say that a whole lot of topics came up.  .......Read more here.....

Nobody really knew what to expect from Arsenal against Fulham in their Premier League opener this past weekend, but in the end, the Gunners were able to keep their momentum rolling as they eased to a 3-0 win over their London rivals at Craven Cottage.

After a decent enough start from Fulham in which they weren’t afraid to go straight at Arsenal, things fell apart pretty quickly as a goalmouth scramble led to Alexandre Lacazette poking home the opening goal of the game. From that point on Arsenal seemed to be in cruise control, and while there were a few hairy moments for Bernd Leno to deal with, nothing really ever came close to causing him any sustained problems.  .......Read more here.....

It may not have always been particularly pretty, but Arsenal didn’t even have to get out of second gear yesterday as they ran out 3-0 winners against Fulham at Craven Cottage. The Premier League newcomers didn’t really have anything for the Gunners, whereas Mikel Arteta’s men seemed to have far more tricks than anyone could’ve imagined.

The boss spoke to the media after the game as Arsenal fans around the world continue to speculate over what this team could end up achieving between now and the end of the season.  .......Read more here.....

Prior to the game against Fulham this afternoon, he spoke with the media as fans wait to see whether or not he can truly become the saviour that the club has been waiting for ever since Arsene Wenger walked out of the door a few years back.  .......Read more here.....

The Premier League is set to return after a seven-week break as fans up and down the country continue to wait for the day when they can finally step foot back into a football stadium once again.

Even the most optimistic of Arsenal fans will be forced to admit that last season’s Premier League campaign simply wasn’t good enough. The Gunners slipped down into eighth place and stayed there after all 38 games were played. Still, they did manage to win the FA Cup to ensure that they will be playing European football next season, but that doesn’t solve the issue surrounding the league.  .......Read more here.....

The big focus for English football fans right now is the return of the Premier League, Championship and subsequent lower leagues below that – with most things getting underway this weekend. Alas, while that is certainly viewed as the most important thing of all, there’s also the Carabao Cup to worry about.

The secondary competition is so often pushed to one side and given a bad reputation, and it’s only ever really taken seriously when teams are able to do well in it. This year we can’t picture Mikel Arteta putting too much focus on prioritising the League Cup, but if he does, he’ll be taking note of the fact that the Gunners’ first game will be Leicester City in the third round.  .......Read more here.....
