The terraces12 Jul 2027

Anger at Arsenal spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Squad12 Jul 2027

The knee: Facundo Bruno out for 17 days

17 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Arsenal lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Market12 Jul 2027

Alexis Payes asks to leave Arsenal

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Loan watch12 Jul 2027

The goals keep arriving from Dylan Cabral’s exile

18 goals in 17 games at Rustavi — numbers that travel home faster than he does. Somebody at Arsenal updates a spreadsheet every Monday, and it makes better reading each week.

Transfer targets12 Jul 2027

Lucas Sauer is a medical away from Arsenal

The deal with Chaco For Ever is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Transfer targets12 Jul 2027

Gastón Nazar turns down Arsenal

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Atlético Tucumán keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Squad12 Jul 2027

A falling-out at Arsenal

Nahuel Pezzini and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad12 Jul 2027

A row about effort at Arsenal

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Damián Pérez was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Market12 Jul 2027

Arsenal sell Julián Lobelos for $77.0K

Julián Lobelos has left for Unión de Santa Fe in a $77.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Facundo Bruno damages knee ligaments — 24 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 24 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Boardroom5 Jul 2027

Arsenal spell it out for Valentino Romano

The board’s statement ran to three sentences and one of them mentioned results. Valentino Romano has managed long enough to translate: win soon, or the next statement is shorter.

Market5 Jul 2027

Julián Vila hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Arsenal can pretend not to have heard.

Player ratings5 Jul 2027

A brace, and Luca Franco takes the afternoon — 8.55

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Luca Franco provided it, and the 8.55 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Player ratings5 Jul 2027

Vintage Alexis Vega — 8.14

At 34 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.14, and nobody on the pitch better.

Transfer targets5 Jul 2027

The paperwork begins on Gastón Nazar

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Arsenal have done the hard part with Atlético Tucumán, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Words exchanged at Arsenal

Nahuel Pezzini and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Loan watch5 Jul 2027

Dylan Cabral keeps scoring at Rustavi

16 appearances away from home and 16 goals to show for them. Every one of them makes next summer's conversation a little more expensive.

Transfer targets5 Jul 2027

Arsenal baulk at the price for Erik Núñez

Madryn wanted more than $13.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad8 Feb 2027

Damián Pérez breaks a bone — 127 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 127 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match6 Feb 2027

Cruel end for Maipú as Arsenal pounce

There is no crueller way to lose a football match. Arsenal scored in the 90th minute, the restart barely happened, and the away end was still standing when the whistle went.

Player ratings8 Feb 2027

Matías Sosa scores twice — 8.50

Two goals and a mark of 8.50 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

The dugout8 Feb 2027

Matías Lucero: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Arsenal have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Player ratings8 Feb 2027

Uriel La Roza, 21, plays like he has been here for years — 7.68

A mark of 7.68 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 21-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Player ratings8 Feb 2027

Matías Lucero runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 23. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad8 Feb 2027

Words exchanged at Arsenal

Nahuel Pezzini and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Boardroom8 Feb 2027

Graduation day at Arsenal

4 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Match6 Feb 2027

Matías Sosa the difference as Arsenal beat Maipú

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Matías Sosa. 2‑1 against Maipú, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.
