Arsenal face Ludogorets in the Champions League on Tuesday knowing that a win will likely see them progress to the knockout stages with two games to spare.

Arsenal comfortably put aside Swiss outfit Basel in the first ever meeting between the two sides as a brace from Theo Walcott gave the Gunners a 2-0 win.

Arsenal travel to the KCOM Stadium today to take on a Hull side that have made a very impressive start to the season. Still without a permanent manager, the Tigers have have won seven points from their opening four games under interim boss Mike Phelan, and have played very well despite having a threadbare squad.

Arsenal could count themselves somewhat fortunate on Tuesday night as they escaped from the Parc des Princes with a 1-1 draw against Paris Saint-Germain. The Gunners were on the back foot for much of the game, but a combination of an outstanding performance from replacement goalkeeper Petr Cech and the unbelievable wastefulness of PSG striker Edinson Cavani meant that the …

Olivier Giroud was sent off after picking up two yellow cards last night. Arsenal were able to take many positives from last night’s draw with Paris Saint-Germain. Apart from picking up a point away from home, the performances of Alex Iwobi and David Ospina raise a number of selection dilemmas for Arsene Wenger. Nevertheless, Arsenal were fortunate to come away from the Parc des …

Edinson Cavani, the 29-year-old PSG and Uruguay striker, put in a performance against Arsenal which showcased his talents, but also perfectly summed up why he has never kicked on and become one of the top forwards in the world. Talent? Yes. Athleticism? Yes. Work rate? Definitely. Composure? Not so sure. Cavani has always had the makings of a world-class player, …

Arsenal could count themselves somewhat lucky that they escaped from Paris with a 1-1 draw. But for an extremely wasteful Paris Saint-Germain side, the game could have been over a a contest by half time.

According to reports in Italy today, Roma have reached an agreement with Arsenal to re-sign goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny on a season-long loan.

According to the latest reports from the Daily Star and TRANSFERmarketWEB, Arsenal are set to loan out Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny to Roma for the 2016/17 season, and it might not be such a bad move. Szczesny joined Roma on a season-long loan deal in July 2015 after the Polish international became the third choice option for the Gooners between the sticks. …

Arsenal fans will be hoping that goalkeeper David Ospina can replicate this awesome form if he stays at the Emirates next season. Now firmly usurped by Petr Cech between the sticks at Arsenal, Ospina has been linked with a move away from the club, with Turkish side Besiktas apparently keen on offering the 27-year-old adequate game-time. Judging by his performance earlier …

So far this transfer window, we’ve seen Arsenal splash the cash on Granit Xhaka, change his squad number twice, and have every name under the sun linked with them. You name a player, and he’ll have been an Arsenal ‘transfer target’ at some point. Morata, Vardy, Kante, Mussachio, Zouma; and these are just those that have been in the news …

There is absolutely no way to predict who will play second fiddle to Petr Cech at Arsenal next season, as both David Ospina and Wojciech Szczesny could be playing elsewhere.
