Sheff Utd Preview, Good news and Heartache

A very good morning to my fellow Gooners, We've got a lot of news to round up today. First things first, the preview of tomorrows match against Sheffield United . On paper, they should be pushovers, but lets not underestimate any team. As it stands, Arsenal have won 4 out of their last 5 games against Sheff Utd, the other one being a 1-1 draw. Sheffield Utd won their last FA cup in 1925 (thats a long time ago :D), and are currently 20th in the league. Good news for us is that both Thierry Henry and Robin van Persie are expected to play . Its goin well for us coz this game will let Henry and RVP settle in after injuries, and should we win, will do the players confidence a world of good. I, for one, dont want a 1-0 victory.

Other good news comes in from the Arsenal Reserves with a good 2-0 v

Chelsea in Muck Again, Financial Troubles..

The move would hit clubs with rich owners such as Chelsea as they would not be allowed to spend more than they earn in order to steal a march on their rivals. Clubs would not be allowed to spend more than they earn on transfer fees and players' wages but they would be allowed to borrow for capital investments such as new stadia or training grounds. Chelsea and Roman Abramovich, their Russian billionaire owner, are t

Hello and Welcome!!!

A BIG hello to all my fellow ArseDudes, Welcome to GoonerWorld, The Place to Be!!! I'm Abhishek , the owner of this Blog, and I'd like to thank you for visiting my humble blog about the Arsenal Football Club. Right here i'd like to thank all the professional Arsenal Blogs (though they may never know it), because they were my inspiration to start one on my own. All you Arsenal lovers (and and haters alike) are welcome to comment on the content. I'd appreciate ALL your feedback. Comin back to Arsenal, we all know what they're capable of. We all know what they've achieved. And their achievements really speak for them. And their rivalry with Manchester Utd, makes them all the more interesting, coz i really HATE ManUtd. I love Arsenal because of the way with which they approach the game, the way in which they play the game, their sportive attitude, and their passion for the game. Arsenal FC is not just any other club, its a family . And at the top of this all, there&
