Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 Arsenal: Premier League – 13/05/2022
It’s fair to say that the north London derby is the most hotly contested rivalry in England. The dislike emanating between the two sides has been palpable for years. Perhaps it was precisely this that made Thursday night’s game so important. A win would see Arsenal clinch 4th spot, while a loss would give Antonio […]

Arsenal 2-1 Leeds United: Premier League – 08/05/2022
With a not altogether convincing 1-2 win over West Ham United last Sunday and a new contract for manager Mikel Arteta, Arsenal entered Sunday afternoon’s match with Leeds United with a fair amount of confidence. The only absentee from the Arsenal squad, was Benjamin White. The defender had still not fully recovered from his injury […]

Chelsea 2-4 Arsenal: Premier League – 21/04/2022
It’s been a pretty disastrous couple of weeks Mikel Arteta’s side.

It wasn’t entirely surprising […]

Arsenal 1-2 Brighton & Hove Albion: Premier League – 09/04/2022
After a disastrous performance against Crystal Palace on Monday, Arsenal needed to bounce back as quickly as possible.

Crystal Palace 3-0 Arsenal: Premier League – 04/04/2022
Given the two-week international break, it’s natural for teams to come back rusty.

Arsenal began last night’s game against Crystal Palace, without starting fullback Takehiro Tomiyasu once again, without Kieran Tierney, who’s prognosis […]

Aston Villa 0-1 Arsenal: Premier League – 19/03/2022
After a disappointing defeat in midweek to Liverpool, it was crucial that Arsenal bounced back as soon as possible against Aston Villa, only a mere 3 days later. Arsenal were dealt something of a hammer-blow beforehand, which was that Aaron Ramsdale would not be fit to play in Birmingham on Saturday lunchtime and nor would […]

Arsenal 0-2 Liverpool: Premier League – 16/03/2022
Given their excellent form, Arsenal fans could still be forgiven for feeling a little apprehensive in the build-up to their match with Liverpool. After an impressive run of form, both were the team to beat at that point and neither showed any signs of letting up. But there is the rather undeniable sense that Liverpool, […]

Arsenal 2-0 Leicester City: Premier League – 14/03/2022
Between now and the end of the season, every game that Arsenal will play will be the equivalent of a cup final. Having been dumped out of all other actual cup competitions and the constantly circling presence of both Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal have got to treat every single game as a must-win […]
