Cesc Fabregas got frustrated against Bolton and got booked for a retaliatory foul.
It was flash of temper, a bit of misplaced machismo, and thats understandable in a young player. These things happen in football, especially in midfield.
Trouble is, oppon… more »

Arsenal 2 Bolton 0
This was like potent chemicals unblocking a drain.
Bolton came to block, foul, frustrate, maybe even knick three points from a flick-on.
Couldnt help thinking what Arsene Wenger said in his speech at the AGM, that around half a billion… more »

Like the team, the Arsenal AGM sets a brisk pace. Its pretty compressed and fast-moving because the club likes it that way.
This year there was a lot of applause and laughing and, significantly, we never heard either of the taboo words "Kroenke" or "Usma… more »

Six hours to kick-off, so just a few brief points.
1. Scotland are better than England right now.
Scotlands 3-2 defeat of Ukraine was far more impressive that Englands 3-0 demolition of Estonia.
If England played Scotland tonight, we would lose 2-0. Ste… more »

It looks as if Arsene Wenger is expecting a lot from William Gallas in the second half of the season.

A scrappy game in Bucharest but Arsenal won 1-0
It was hard work watching Adebayor and van Persie struggling through the first 76 minutes. Then they combined and van Persie scored the only goal of the game.
