The October window delivered a proper mixed bag of friendlies and high‑stakes qualifiers, and plenty of Gunners (plus a few new faces in the squad) were right in the thick of it. Here’s how they got on over the past ten days—goals, assists, minutes, the lot—with an eye on how they’ll return to London Colney. […]
When football fans talk about Thierry Henry, the conversation often drifts toward his blistering pace, elegant finishing, and record-breaking career with Arsenal and the French national team. He’s remembered for his iconic runs, trademark curls into the far corner, and effortless grace that made defenders tremble. Yet, behind all the highlight reels and statistics lies […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Arsenal Women had to win, and they won. After a three-games winless run in the WSL that saw the team fall to fifth, our girls overcame a valiant Brighton at the Emirates Stadium and got back on track, although they are still sitting in fifth place in the table. Tottenham Hotspur’s […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Another day, another defeat for Renée Slegers and her players, who are now on a four-games winless streak. Facing OL Lyonnes at Meadow Park was always being a challenge but gifting them two goals made it unnecessarily hard. All things considered, it was an even contest between two high-quality teams, but […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Going two games winless was already far from ideal. Going winless in three consecutive games is a near catastrophe, especially if the third game of the row is an away defeat to Manchester City.

Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! While an away draw at Manchester United wasn’t such a bad result, the home draw against Aston Villa has a whole different taste to it, also because the visitors struck at the very end. It is not to say they didn’t deserve their point, though: Aston Villa had several chances to […]
‘In the end, it’s quality’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective Where were you at 6:30pm UK time on Sunday? I had just dropped Max and Axcel off at their game. You need to know about Axcel. Axcel is a local legend. He is our family’s adopted soccer son. We drive backwards to go […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Getting out of Leigh Sports Village Stadium with a point and clean-sheet is a good thing, all things considered. Ahead of the match, Mark Skinner’s team were top of the table after two impressive wins against Leicester (4-0) and London City Lionesses (5-1), and Melvine Malard looked unstoppable in front of […]
