Beyond the slight relevance of this to most of my followers, fesshole are actually a really fun follow if you're looking for something new.

It's not a case of fear or lack of ambition. I just think saying there is interest in a player is easy but talking about something like this before there's even been a bid or contact sets unrealistic expectations for some fans. Plus IF he's available, there will be other suitors with deeper pockets.

Feels like a case of setting fans up for disappointment. I'm sure lots of clubs would like to sign him, but when Arsenal end up with Martinelli as first choice or a lower calibre player than Barcola, Rogers, Alvarez or Vini Jr, people are going to rage about Andrea Berta when the deal was unlikely.

24 days to go: The fewest goals Arsenal have scored in a Premier League season at home came in 2020-21 when they netted just 24.

RIP Zippy.

Players with Z in their "known" name to play in the Premier League for Arsenal: Ozil, Lacazette, Szczesny, Cazorla, Alexis Sanchez, Luzhny, Havertz, Zinchenko, Guendouzi, David Luiz, Zubimendi, Schwarz, Lukasz Fabianski, Eze, Emi Martinez, Lucas Perez, Malz, Vernazza, Mendez, Suarez, Arrizabalaga.

Christos Tzolis will wear the number 17 shirt, following in the footsteps of John Jensen, David Hillier, Emmanuel Petit, Edu, Alex Song, Nacho Monreal, Alexis Sanchez, Alex Iwobi, Cédric Soares and Oleksandr Zinchenko.

Do Chelsea think it's 2016?

25 days to go: 2026-27 will be Arsenal's 25th season in the European Cup/Champions League. The Gunners have played more games in the Champions League than any other team who hasn't won the trophy.

Interesting development.

Interesting that the current champions and the Invincibles both won 12 games by two or more goals, but won 14 matches by a single goal margin and yet collective memory saw the latter as a swashbuckling attacking team compared to the 25/26 vintage being considered dour and anti-football.

Arsenal Premier League games won by one goal margin: 2025/26 - 14 2024/25 - 8 2023/24 - 12 2022/23 - 8 2021/22 - 10 2020/21 - 6 2019/20 - 8 2018/19 - 7 2017/18 - 7 2016/17 - 7 2015/16 - 7 2014/15 - 10 2013/14 - 6 2012/13 - 9

Arsenal Premier League games won by two or more goals margin: 2025/26 - 12 2024/25 - 12 2023/24 - 16 2022/23 - 18 2021/22 - 12 2020/21 - 12 2019/20 - 6 2018/19 - 14 2017/18 - 12 2016/17 - 16 2015/16 - 13 2014/15 - 12 2013/14 - 18 2012/13 - 12

Arsenal haven't lost a Premier League or European match by more than a one goal margin since October 2024 (v Bournemouth).

26 days to go: Arsenal won 26 Premier League games in 2025-26, the same number as they won in the Invincibles season.

Interesting news after the Yan Diomande links earlier with Madrid as it felt like they would be letting someone go. I was going to suggest going in for Arda Guler but this would be acceptable :)

No, they went the whole of the 01-02 season unbeaten, but that run in total only lasted 23 games. They also went unbeaten the whole of 03-04 (the Invincibles) but that run was 27 matches including games from previous and post campaigns.

No, 2003 as opposed to 2023. But still doh on my part.

27 days to go: Arsenal's longest unbeaten run away from home in the Premier League is 27 games set between April 2003 and September 2004. The only team with a longer run are Man Utd (29).
