For Arsenal, only despair. In the space of two games their ambitions for the season have halved. Two cup disasters leave them with the league and Europe to concentrate on now - with a whole load of self doubt as baggage to carry on drooping shoulders. The imperious way Man City thra

Exclusive by Football Reporter Granit Xhaka is renowned for being someone who talks sense and speaks facts. No shrinking violet, the Swiss has now had his say on the title race. And despite going 22 years without a Premier League crown, even Xhaka believes that Arsenal will come out on top this time around. He told Capital Football: "Will they do it? They look like at the moment, yes! "But the season's very long and I wish them only the best. "If you spend seven years in a cl

Exclusive by Alessandro Schiavone in Madrid Will Still joked that he wouldn’t be able to coach the Hammers given his love of the club. Still grew up in Belgium supporting West Ham and has privately and publicly never made it a mystery that the London Stadium is his Holy Grail. Only three years ago, Still was hailed as one of the most budding and up-and-coming managers in world football when he led lowly French side Stade Reims to a 19-game unbeaten run. Just a year after walk

Arsenal (0) 0 v Manchester City (0) 2 Football League Cup Final Talking Points By Kaz Mochlinski at Wembley Stadium “Second again, olé, olé!” must be something that Arsenal hate hearing. But the Gunners had a great chance to start silencing the song by winning at Wembley and lifting the League Cup, only to finish as runners-up again. So the singing is set to get louder still, and it is already coming from every opposition that Arsenal face, at each away ground which they trav

Master v Apprentice showdown : Picture by @YTJourno Carabao Cup Final Arsenal (0) 0 Manchester City (0) 2 O'Reilly 60, 64 It had all been looking so good - for the first five minutes at least. But the Gunners were left empty handed in the League Cup yet again after a drab showing that got the outcome it deserved. They now have lost seven finals in this competition and not won it since 1993 - one of only two successes since it was first played in the 60s. City have won it nin

Emirates Stadium. Pic by @JTaylorSport Arsenal 2-0 Bayer Leverkusen It seems Arsenal are quite adapt at competing on multiple fronts. Top of the Premier League table and poised to secure the title for the first time since 2004. A Carabao Cup final to look forward to. In the FA Cup quarter finals. And the same stage now in the Champions League, after a comfortable, professional display over Bayer Leverkusen. Sporting Lisbon, who defeated Bodo/Glimt lie in wait. Another challen

Exclusive by Alessandro Schiavone at the Santiago Bernabeu on the 11th of March 2026 Arsenal's main Premier League rivals are staring down the barrel of a premature Champions League exit tonight. And that only three days after slipping NINE points behind the Gunners in the Prem standings following a 1-1 draw a West Ham. Man City's season is at a crossroads and at risk of fizzling out.

Before the dusk has settled : Picture by @YTJourno Premier League Arsenal (0) 2 Gyokeres 89, Dowman 90+7 Everton (0) 0 Was this the day the title was won? It's still way too soon to crown the Gunners, but it was certainly the day Max Dowman came of age. At 16 years and 73 days, he became the Premier League's youngest goalscorer - his goal deep into injury time adding gloss to what had already been a star turn. It was his cross which paved the way for another of the second hal

By Alessandro Schiavone at Santiago Bernabeu on the 12th of March 2026 Real Madrid 3-0 Man City Manchester City currently have a list of issues as long as Thibaut Courtois’ wonderful arms. Undone by Chelsea's former persona non grata ’s long kick that laid the groundwork for Valverde’s opener and then denied by the Belgian’s stunning foot save from Nic O'Reilly's close-range strike, the serial winners are now at a crossroads. Marc Guehi’s side trail Arsenal by seven points in

Mansfield Town (0) 1 v Arsenal (1) 2 FA Cup Fifth Round Talking Points By Kaz Mochlinski at Field Mill Arsenal’s first ever visit to the oldest professional football ground in the world was highly likely to be an unusually special occasion, but the extent of the enjoyment for everyone involved turned out to be quite unique. Games have been played at Field Mill since 1861 and perhaps from back as far as 1850, yet somehow Arsenal avoided any encounters there until now. Fittingl
