I am calm over it because what we have decided for him for the first few months is happening. When we have to give him games, whether it is in the Youth Cup or with the under-21s or with us, he has that. He has a lot of exposure in training with us, too. A lot of new things are happening to him with the national team, playing with two different age groups, and with us,
That legendary Jose Mourinho side strolled to victory in the Premier League title race that year, conceding a record low number of just 15 goals in 38 games. The previous record had been Arsenal's, when they conceded just 17 goals in the 1998/99 campaign, but it looks like the Gunners could reclaim the record if they carry on performing as well as they have this season.
The Gunners have never won the Champions League, coming closest in 2006 when Arsene Wenger's side were pipped to the post in Paris it would have been the perfect conclusion to a brilliant era for the Frenchman, but wasn't to be. For this quiz, we're looking for every member of the Arsenal squad who played in Europe that season and there were quite a few (25 players, to be exact) given the epidemic of injuries that Wenger faced that term.
Top of the table, looking down at our rivals, despite still not really firing on all cylinders it's early days, but we're struggling to keep a lid on the excitement here. Having star turns such as Havertz, Madueke and now degaard succumb to long-term injury is a reminder of the risk of being derailed, but it does feel like we've never been better equipped to cope with the slings and arrows.
Saka had a goal ruled out for offside before Rice's ruthless opener seven minutes from half-time against the club with whom he won the 2022/23 Conference League, joining the Gunners that July for £100 million. After a Video Assistant Referee review ruled El Hadji Malick Diouf had brought down Jurrien Timber inside the box, Saka celebrated his 200th league appearance by blasting his 67th-minute spot kick past Alphonse Areola for the forward's second goal of the season.
Arteta's side went out for the second half with a 1-0 lead courtesy of Gabriel Martinelli, added to by a last-minute strike from Bukayo Saka. But by the time the winger had sealed Arsenal's win, Gabriel was already off the field, having received treatment on the pitch and departed in some discomfort following a collision with his own goalkeeper, David Raya.
The landscape of English football is changing and it could be more seismic than you think. The home of Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and even Sheffield United and Millwall has become the location of the most sought-after sporting real estate in the world and American owners are at the forefront of the land grab. When Malcolm Glazer completed a £790 million ($1.06 billion) takeover of Manchester United in May 2005, the New York billionaire became the first American owner in the Premier League.
Arsenal forward Kai Havertz has had a knee operation which the club have described as 'minor.' The Germany international missed last week's 5-0 win against Leeds after picking up the problem during the win at Manchester United on the opening weekend of the Premier League season.
Arteta stated, "Well, he's going to be in and around the team. We're going to have to manage his development very well, his next steps, and now we are fully connected with everybody in order to achieve that."
Oleksandr Zinchenko's situation at Arsenal has become challenging, transitioning from being a trusted player to often sitting on the bench, impacting his morale significantly.
