Match

Arsenal cannot stop winning

8 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Match

Arsenal tear West Ham United apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 3‑0 against West Ham United, and it could have been more.

Player ratings

Both of them Bukayo Saka's — 8.64

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.64, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market

Ceadach O'Neill has said yes to Charlton Athletic

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Arsenal have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Squad

Words exchanged at Arsenal

Victor Osimhen 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.

Boardroom

5 academy graduates step up at Arsenal

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Match

Another one collected away from home

3 on the bounce on the road for Arsenal. The coaches leave early, arrive at unlovely grounds in the dark, and keep coming home with three points.

One of our own: Simon Murphy joins the Arsenal first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Simon Murphy is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

One of our own: David Cooper joins the Arsenal first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. David Cooper is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
