Arsenal FC | 2025/26 Season

I'll be going to the Crystal Palace game this Sunday, so if anyone here is going let me know.
Enjoy the game, we need to just get another 3 points and put pressure in those teams dropping points.

Won't be Easu game, but we should be winning it
 
Pretty boring and uninspiring 30 mins so far, ball needs to passed around quicker. Plus Palace look dangerous on break.

We need a goal here

0-0
 
3 points when rivals lost. Priceless

I think it was a decent performance. Palace are no joke. Very well organised. I was watching carefully they hunt in packs.

Got the job done. Another clean sheet. On we go

Today was just about winning.

Emery did us a favour today as well 🤭 vs city
 
@Geordie Ahmed did say in a different thread City's Credentials will really be tested in the next round of Fixtures were they have some tough Fixtures. Mind you Liverpool are one of the opponents 😆

If you Gooners could open up a 10 point gap by end of November. Surely a Great chance.

Yep, I said earlier in this thread, the next 4 will tell us a lot, I wasn't convinced by them

For me they needed 10 points from 12 for me to consider them genuine challengers, right now the maximum they can get is 9 and I still think they drop more points

Bournemouth (H)
Liverpool (H)
Newcastle (a)

I don't see them getting 9 points from that set of fixtures

I think Arsenal will have at least a double figure lead over City at the end of the next 3 games
 
Way too early to make any definitive predictions but Arsenal really are in pole position, they are getting results and they've gotten some tough fixtures out of the way (Old Trafford, Anfield and St James' Park)

What bodes well for Arsenal this time is the squad is a lot more balanced, last time you built a healthy lead you went from Saliba being replaced by Holding and it falling apart, this time the options on the bench are better

With a quarter of the season gone they are the favourites but key is to build that healthy lead so that if any of the title rivals get their act together it's too late

Spot on. Racking up these wins is to prepare for any inevitable dips. Every team goes through a patch where they drop points.

Sounds simple but just rack up the points so the effect of the dip is minimised.

I read somewhere most of many city wins have come against bottom half teams and United. Not sure if that's accurate but says a lot about where they are at the moment.

Last season we got off to a good start with 4 wins and a draw. The issue was then get 2 points from 4 games in a row vs Bournemouth, Liverpool, Chelsea, Newcastle. The damage was then done.

Now its other teams dropping points so we have to do what Liverpool did last season and just keep winning games.

Squad and manager need to focus on each fixture we have rather then who rivals are playing.

We also need to find a way to start scoring more goals from open play.

Won't be Easu game, but we should be winning it

Thanks. It was a nervy watch at times and a lot colder than I expected but nothing better than seeing Eze scoring against his old club and City losing today.
 
Saliba, Califori and Rice all had to come off due to injury.

Arteta has to be careful that he doesn’t run players to the ground.

The idea of having a big squad isn’t merely for cover but to rotate as well.

None of these players should be playing vs Brighton midweek

We need to fully rotate, we have squad now to not need to have these start
 
Kepa
White mosquera hincapie LMS
Norgaard merino
Nwaneri
Downman Martinelli trossard

That should be starters for midweek
Do you think this team beats Brighton?

I agree tbh that this should be the team
Martinelli might be injured.

We should aim to progress and I'd like to win the cup. Eventhough if there was a list it would rank lowest. But we need that 1st one.

Am I right in thinking they changed it this year where semi final is just one leg?

I really hate the 2 leg semi

I think even with our strongest 11, Brighton is always a tricky game. However the 11 I named should be capable of getting a result
 
I do agree arsenal need more open play goals but if you watch the matches the way teams set up to just block block block it makes having set pieces as a means of scoring a great tool. I don't mind it at all.

At times yesterday Saka had 3 and even sometimes 4 people on him as an example.

Teams are happy to take a draw against Arsenal and will do everything they can to achieve that. Look at Man City earlier in the season got the lead and went ultra defensive.

I found this table interesting. We would have been only 3 points off the top if Set pieces didn't count. I think people need to get over it now and admit we are top cos we are currently the best team in the league.

Sorry I forgot to add.... I DARE - I DARE any team to come play us with an expansive style. Watch what happens.
 
We shall see bhai in the latter stages of the champions league.... i hope this ages well for you!
Well i was quiet clearly referring to the Premier League but whatever happens happens. I won't be running off catching flights all over the world that's for sure. We have not won the UCL ever so nothing new here haha

My bad... that makes more sense now!
 
Good to rotation, as players needed a rest. This 11 is still capable or winning this game

2-0 Saka on as a sub scores.

Glad the starting 11 were kept on as long as possible before making subs. Every in squad needs to contribute here
 
We got lucky in the first half but Arteta must be delighted to have won this game with his second/third string players without conceding a goal yet again.

Brighton were better team 1st half, but we didn't conceed whilst not playing well. That's a good sign that we stayed solid, then picked it up second half
 
Arsenal don’t have any rivals this season for the PL. You deserve to finally win it under Arteta.

Manchester City are still there and only 3 weeks ago Liverpool were 5 points ahead. We’ll get clarity by December / Jan.

Arsenal at the moment look defensively solid but goals from open play, they are ranked 17th. That simply isn’t good enough.

If Arsenal rely on set pieces only, don’t improve goals from open play and keep losing players through injuries like they have been then it’s anyone’s title.

Valid points but defences (usually) win championships is the old addage unless you have something amazing in attack.

Arsenal at the back look incredible!
 
You’ll win the league unless you do the biggest bottle job in modern history but so glad I don’t support this team but if I did I’d have more enjoyment watching a snail move

Embarrassing for the Premier League pathetic football is going to be win something finally after 1 b spent and no entertainment

:wenger

The seasons 10 games old, yet your talking about modern day bottle jobs? 🤣

Liverpool bottled leagues with bigger leads with less games to go under klopp and Rogers. Your lame attempts at trolling are hilarious.

It's clearly obvious that after hiding for a month like a coward, your now trying to deflect attention.

Liverpool spent 400M+ in summer and have got worse. But we all know you will start talking about net spend like is some sort of Trophy 🤡

You’re



on a different planet . On Earth you’d should be sat back praying you finally win something, even the league cup because your cupboard is bare like your drawing paper now .

If you were a Man City fan sure but your Arsenal , a team more suited to volleyball. You’ve never won a European cup , nothing in years . A few points ahead and you think you’re Picasso. Relax , play with your pencils until the end , you’re never going to surpass Liverpool fc in your lifetime.

Forget the beer , hold that bottle
:wenger
 
🥱🥱🥱 imagine resorting to making up stuff, because a lack of intelligence means you can't counter any dicussion.

So now Liverpool fans are resorting to

"Arsenal are bottlers if they don't win after being top after 10 games"

Not a single Arsenal fan on this forum is getting carried away after 10 games.

Yet because someone has been smacked about for last month and has zero dignity left, they have decided to try and anatognise others with weak banter 🥱🥱🥱

Smacked about even with Mod backup. YNWA
 
Two of the veterans of PP @Amjid Javed + @KingKhanWC going head to head is like Andre the Giant vs Hulk Hogan, love to see it. :))

Poker face and gaslighting aside. It’s too early to say who’s winning the league. Only a month ago, Liverpool were 5 points ahead. Also Arsenal have been in this position 8 times since 1999 and have bottled the league so PL favourites Liverpool and OG’s of title race Man City all in it.

More like Stone Cold (AJ) vs Shane McMahon who has the backup of Vince... In this case the Mods

Not at ant point has any Arsenal fan in this thread over last few weeks, got carried away and said we are winning the league.

Liverpool fans have resort to "its Arsenal title to lose" as a coping mechanism do to deflect from their own problems.

You know when a Liverpool fan has been put in their place, when they resort to bring up league titles, CL, net spend etc..

Since when has 10 games been the bench mark for if a team has bottled the league? It's just over a 1/4 of season gone. Absolutely ridiculous to base a whole season around 9 or 10 games.
 
Pretty much most Arsenal fans aren't getting carried away and are taking it game by game.

We have to play Spurs, Bayern and Chelsea in the space of week at end of month.

We Also have 8 games in December, 8 games in January, that's excluding if we got to a league cup semi final as well. So things can get better or even change very quickly over a short space of time.
 
need to get through the next 2 games and then hopefully some of the front line will be back after International break.

Not good news Gyokores being out. Hopefully its not a long term injury. We should be able to negotiate Sunderland and Prague with what we have. But we really need a full squad as the fixtures proper pile up post this international break and smart rotation is needed.

Not concerned yet as this is why you need a buffer as bad form and injuries will occur throughout the season its just a matter of the good work done prior being made to count.

I'd personally rest Gabriel and Rice this game. Unlikely as Zubimendi is supended and Merino will probably play upfront.

Definitely don't need to risk key players here, we could put out a similar side to the one that faces Brighton.

It's merino chance to do a job as a striker next 2 games.
 
3-0 up - good professional performance so far

Raya might as well start working from home now on
 
I know we have quite a few games before then, but looking forward to the Arsenal vs Bayern game at end of month. A rock solid defence vs a pretty rampant looking Bayern. Will be a very interesting game
 
Yep. Potential heavyweight Clash. Bayern actually look scary Good, with Davies and Musiala back soon as well.
I don't think Bayerns defence is anything special. However in midfield and attack they are definitely looking more menacing then last season.
 
Arsenal going through injury crisis atm.

Our bench yesterday was mostly Hale End academy and had to start Merino up front. Great to get a convincing win and cleansheet.

Sunderland won’t be easy esp now we have key players injured but somehow hope we get through with 3 points.
 
Good win again last night. Another clean Sheet get through Sunderland and regroup.
Saka and Rice should not be in the England squad for pointless games they are not needed.

Also @Amjid Javed @topspin @IMMY69 @aboveandbeyond . I am going to take a break from this Forum. I have had enough of taking the effort posting something only for it to be deleted or edited because certain Mods cant take the banter or don't want their club being spoken about.

Peace

Yeah I did notice a lot of your posts taken down, pretty much all of them were well written with some banter applied.

More then likely certain Liverpool fan has been running off to mods for protection

Kind of ruins while purpose of a dicussion forum if you can't say what you want.

That's a Shame. Always seen your input as highly informative. And surely banter is part of a healthy debate and keeps threads going.

I’m sorry to hear bro but at the same time I don’t blame you.

The same Liverpool supporting mod edited one of my posts on the cricket side of forum because I said something that irked him about his favourite cricketer.

In recent months, I’ve seen a max exodus of reputable posters on the cricket side of PP which tells you everything you need to know about the state of this forum.

Bro there’s nothing to go head to head with . Liverpool having been wining trophies for a decade now . Arsenal have won nothing . Champions and losers can’t be compared but maybe next season…. Unless they bottle the league . Champions league Arsenal have no pedigree , minnows in Europe

1st round TKO. Only loser here is you

- you ran off like a coward after every Liverpool defeat
- your default comments are always bring up the past, which shows you cant bring anything relevant to current dicussion
- you ran off crying to the Mods that you were being gangbanged and bullied by Arsenal fans
- your lame attempts at personal jibes. A 5 year old could come up with better stuff

lol you continue drawing silly cartoons until you win something.

Most people have a life but God blessed you with crayons . Let’s hope you get out more , find some real friend or will end up in a mental home with colouring books if Arteta bottles it this time .

Guy is writing in bullet points , drawing isn’t the only skill 🤣

🥱🥱 same lame personal digs. Come up with something better.

Funny how your always on here when Liverpool win, as soon as they lose "your busy". Most of my Asian Liverpool supporting fans are the same.

Fact is your a part time fan, who can't take banter and you can't handle losing. Like I said the fact your usual response is to talk about league titles and CLs, shows you can't intelligently come up with counter responses

You keep stalking posters while eating biryani out of tower hamlets , while we attend games and see our team lift trophies .

If you bottle it this year , please do a Picasso level of painting , out with the crayons 🖍️ … in with the brushes!

we’ve seen Disney but no predictions? What will Arsenal win this season ? The way you’re drawing , treble or quad?

🥱🥱🥱 you've just repeated the same rubbish you did before. Like I said your lack of intelligence is there for all to see. Same rubbish comments just reworded.

The league is 10 games old, we have a 6 point lead, still roughly 3/4 of season left. So how can it be a bottle job?

Using that same retarded logic, Liverpool had a 5 point lead after 5 games and had spent 400M. So if Liverpool don't win it? Are they not bottle job.

The fact all Liverpool fans are bring up so called bottling after 10 games, shows how rattled you are.
