    Priskin makes lacklustre Arsenal pay as Ipswich claim advantage

    If Paul Jewell could have one wish four days into his reign as Ipswich Town manager it would surely be that he could reverse his decision last night to sit in the stands, thus missing out on taking the credit for his new club's remarkable win over Ars�ne Wenger's side in this Carling Cup semi-final first leg. It was a victory that was richly de...- 13/01/2011, FA & League Cups

  6. Streetwise Fabregas keeps the Arsenal show on the road

    Five months is easily long enough to make nonsense of a supposition made today but it is tempting nonetheless to imagine 1 January 2011 becoming a symbolic moment for this Arsenal team, the day perhaps that they came of age as Premier League contenders. Certainly, an argument can be constructed to support the theory.- 03/01/2011, Premier League

  7. Cesc Fabregas demands referee consistency after 'handball'

    Cesc Fabregas has criticised referees for inconsistency claiming Arsenal were denied a last-minute penalty at Wigan for exactly the same offence as he was penalised for against Tottenham.

  8. Arsenal's title hopes hurt by 10-man Wigan

    Arsene Wenger had already been warned; his Arsenal side have proved they don't enjoy travelling to the DW Stadium.

  11. Wenger set for clash with FA over Wilshere

    Arsene Wenger is set for a dispute with the Football Association after saying that plans to have Jack Wilshere play for England in next summer's European Under-21s Championship "will not work".

  12. Arshavin: Arsenal must move on from defeat

    Andrey Arshavin believes Arsenal must quickly forget about defeat at Manchester United and focus on getting back to the top of the Barclays Premier League with victory over Stoke. The Gunners went down 1-0 at Old Trafford last night to a somewhat fortunate header from Park Ji-sung at the end of the first half. However, Arsenal Wenger's men fai...- 14/12/2010, Premier League

  13. Fletcher's combination of steel and self-control shows Wilshere's limits

    Arsenal had two pre-match observations to take some motivation from: Patrice Evra's claim that they are a "training ground team" who will win "no trophy, nothing", and Sir Alex Ferguson's claim in last night's programme notes that they are not as "lilywhite" as they seem. It was easy to imagine when Evra made his comments on Canal+ last week that Ferguson Ar...- 14/12/2010, Premier League
