How much do Arsenal fans pay to watch Premier League on TV around the world A recent study outlines the shocking disparity in cost for gunners fans in different countries It’s been a sensational first half of the season for Arsenal as Mikel Arteta’s side mount an unexpected but increasingly credible challenge to win a […]
There is no player in the Arsenal team that has divided opinion during the years more than Xhaka. He joined us in 2016 and there was confusion about what type of player he really was. He took the captain’s armband in 2019 and got stripped of it in the space of a few months. And […]
