Notes on Arsenal 0-0 Manchester United: Partey Poopers
Arsenal stretched an unbeaten run against Manchester United in the Premier League to six-straight matches after Saturday's 0-0 draw. There wasn't much to say about the game except at least Arsenal didn't lose. Although it wasn't for Thomas Partey's lack of trying.

Agent Mustafi Would Plunge Liverpool into Chaos
Liverpool want to sign Shkodran Mustafi. If it's a genuine rumour, I seen weirder, Jim. Although not by much. If the Reds want Mustafi all Arsenal should say is welcome to the chaos.

Rob Holding's in the building and that's where he's staying. Arsenal's least-fancied centre-back has committed to a new contract, with the fresh terms lasting beyond 2023. Mike Arteta all-but officially confirmed the news: It’s something we will announce as quick as we can - and it looks that way. Hardly a ringing endorsement, but Holding… Continue reading Holding’s Gain is Arsenal’s Reward
Arsene Knew
Arsene Wenger signed Rob Holding from Bolton Wanderers for £2 million, and Mohamed Elneny from Basel for a cheeky £5 mill. That's it. Just £7 million spent on two steady and useful squad players who have shown the potential to develop into so much more. Yet Arsenal still thought they needed Sven Mislintat to spot… Continue reading Arsene Knew
