He might have made a promising start to his Manchester United career, but Anthony Martial hasn’t made life easy for his team mates in Moscow. His handball was enough to give CSKA a penalty – a penalty which was struck against a post. Unfortunately for David de Gea, the ball rebounded on to him and […]

Jose Mourinho has courted controversy yet again with his comments about the referee following Chelsea’s 0-0 draw with Dynamo Kiev. “The referee was weak and naive,” Mourinho told BT Sport. “(He missed) a big penalty.” Mourinho pointedly chose the words Arsene Wenger used to describe Mike Dean following Chelsea’s 2-0 victory over Arsenal in September.

Arsenal had to win against Bayern, but after their recent Champions League form, few would have expected them to see off a formidable Pep Guardiola side. Yet after having just 27% of the possession in the entire game, Arsenal somehow came away with the valuable three points they needed to kick start their European campaign. Arsenal […]

Was it over the line? Not many Arsenal fans will care. Deep into stoppage time, hanging on to a slender 1-0 lead, Arsenal weren’t interested in holding the ball up in the corner. Mesut Ozil’s effort appeared to have been saved by Manuel Neuer, only for the goal to be awarded. Arsenal’s Champions League campaign is finally up […]

Having been pegged back by Lyon, Hulk produced an emphatic response for his Zenit St. Petersburg. A smart turn on halfway was enough to lose a couple of markers.

They […]

We bet Arsenal wish Douglas Costa hadn’t been passed fit to play against them tonight. The Brazilian winger started for Bayern Munich after coming through a late fitness test, and dazzled with a subline piece of skill that left Hector Bellerin beaten all ends up. It was one of those moments that brings football fans […]

There’s plenty been said about how tonight’s match with Bayern Munich is a ‘must-win’ for Arsenal. When Theo Walcott’s head met a cross within the six-yard-box, Arsenal fans must have thought their side were on the brink of taking the lead.
