Inconsistant Arsenal


Arsenal manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer oversaw a unbeaten month but there was a couple of dissapointing draws in that, they however are still in the Champion's league and will play Manchester City in the Quarter Finals.

Robert Lewandowski scored four in one game so lets have a look at the results.



Everton 1-1 Arsenal
Benteke (88)

Arsenal 5-0 Swansea
Benteke (24), Lewandowski (31, 46, 53, 79)

Southampton 1-1 Arsenal
Cazorla (73)

Arsenal have had a good month, just not as good as the teams around them. Arsenal have a great chance of making the Champions League which is what Solskjaer had told the fans and the board he would make sure they are in the Champions League next season.




Arsenal 1-0 Valencia
Lewandowski (17)
(Arsenal win 6-2 on Agg.)

Arsenal outplayed Valencia and continue to perform well above pre season expectations as they now come into the mach against Man City.

Thanks to AAN for making my Banner too, it was much apprieciated.
No problem, anytime, mate! And about the team, very inconsistent, maybe next season will do better!

Mixed Month Again


http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/703/6izp.jpg/

Arsenal have a Cup final to look forward to! There Premier League form is not the greatest at the moment but there Champions League form is outstanding. Manchester City were trounched ELEVEN - NIL. Then Man Utd were also dispatched for a Final date with Real Madrid.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer can't wait to lead Arsenal into the Cup final and paid tribute to Elliott, Bennett, Stewart Downing and Robert Lewandowski. The Premier League top 4 is out of the window but how ironic would it be for Tottenham to miss out because there hated rivals won the Champions League.



Stoke 2-0 Arsenal

Arsenal 2-0 Wigan
Lewandowski (33), Vermealen (41

Arsenal 1-2 West Brom
Vermealen

Newcastle 0-0 Arsenal

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/823/jkq5.png/
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said 4th place is out of the question now, but he still says they will be in the Champions League.



Champions League Quarter Final


Arsenal 11-0 Manchester City
Mertesacker (2), Giroud (9, 73), El Shaarawy (12, 32, 37), Cazorla (13, 54), Lewandowski (28, 43), Lescott (o.g. 58)

Manchester City 0-3 Arsenal
Benteke (6), Kaka (o.g. 32), Bennett (45)

Arsenal win 14-0 on agg.

[h2]Champions League Semi-Final[h2]

Manchester United 0-2 Arsenal
Cazorla (78), Vermealen (81)

Arsenal 2-1 Manchester United
Downing (25), Oxlade-Chamberlain (65)

Arsenal win 4-1 on agg.

Arsenal are in the FINAL! Stewart Downing dominated both games against Man Utd.

Solskjaer Signs New Deal


http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/24/g9mq.png/

Arsenal have rewarded Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with a new contract worth 89,000 a week and the whole squad is very pleased with developments. They are all happy and Downing said that he was over the moon a young and talented Manager was extending his stay.
Well, this players are stupid! How can you lose with Stoke and West Ham and after that, destroy City with 11-0 ??!! You have to do something with them mate!
11-0 against City?!!!

WOWWWW!!! :D



Arsenal Disapointment



Arsenal fans will be thinking what could have been again this season. They heaped praise on Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as he almost in his first season won the Uefa Champion's League. He has however made his team a goalscoring machine as they fired 80-odd goals in the Premiership alone.


Elliott Bennett won the English Young Player Of The Year. He has been extrordinary this season and was in my opinion the Signing of the season. Another mention to Stewart Downing who along with Elliott Bennett played a blinding season on each wings this season.


Robert Lewandowski won the Golden Boot for firing in 30 goals in the league.



Arsenal 2-2 Chelsea
Mertesacker (7), Bennett (10)

Manchester City 1-2 Arsenal
Lewandowski (24), Benteke (67)

Arsenal 3-1 Liverpool
Lewandowski (25, 38, 49)

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/812/xiyg.png/
Arsenal defied all odds and scraped 4th place off Spurs who choked the last 3 games to allow The Gunners to nick forth.



Champions League Final

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/811/tqi1.png/

Arsenal 1-2 Real Madrid
Lewandowski(65)

So Arsenal just miss out but they did however hit the post 4 times so can not say they didnt have there chances. But Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is taking this team places and with a couple of transfers and atleast 6 going out he knows where he is taking this team.
Well done on scrapping fourth! Trust us to collapse again ;). Unlucky in the final, but congrats on getting a new contract! Stoke always seem to do really well :/



Team Awards and New Faces


Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has wasted no time in removing the 'deadwood' but no one expected Aaron Ramsey to be one of them people.

SEVEN players so far have been shown the door, along with Ramsey, Gervinho, Podolski and Gibbs are a few out aswell as GoalKeeper Fabianski to Chelsea for free.

But first the Team Awards, before the ins and outs so far.

Fans Player Of The Year


There were several nominees for this award, Elliott Bennett, Stewart Downing and Robert Lewandowski are the three that stand out.

Bennett, Players Young Player of the Year lead the way with assists and contributed 10 goals this season. Downing had 13 assists and was a consistant performer who also forced his way back into the England squad. Lewandowski hit 41 goals in all competitions and claimed the Golden Boot award.


But none of those actually won the award and it went to Centre Back Per Mertesacker! Per got into the World Team Of the Year and performed solidly all season. He thanked the clubs fans and Manager Ole Gunnar and said he couldn't wait to go for the title next season.

Players Out


Lukas Podolski - To P.S.G - 6,000,000
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/42/c6sz.jpg/

Lukas Podolski leaves and when he left took a sqipe at Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for not giving him a chance. It is something the Arsenal Manager denies saying when he had a chance Lukas did not want to perform and I do not have a place in a squad for someone like him.

Francis Coquelin - To Wigan - 2,400,000
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/4/z65o.jpg/

'Francis was unlucky that there are a awsome crop of very good youngsters here at Arsenal' said Solskjaer. It would be mean not to let him go to a clun where he can play in the Premiership and Wigan could offer that him.

Abou Diaby - To Norwich - Loan for Season[/h2]

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/13/9vt0.jpg/

Abou is going to get some first team experiance then in a years time I think he will be ready for this team.

Kieren Gibbs - To Q.P.R - 5,000,000

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/600/1ymf.jpg/

Kieren had slipped down to third choice Left back and his wage was high so in getting rid of him to Q.P.R on a high wage again is good thing. Said Solskjaer who wished him all the best for the future.

Lukasz Fabianski - To Chelsea - Free

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/593/btzv.jpg/

Lukasz decided to move to Chelsea to sit on the bench and make more money. Said Solskjaer bitterly. He could challenge for number 1 here but wanted 71k a week to do it and I decided he was not a team player.

Aaron Ramsey - To A.C Milan - 5,750,000

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/198/xhdl.jpg/

Aaron would be in his last year of his contract this year and I deemed him surplus to requirements. Aaron who had only been a bit part player was said to be shocked he was told he could go but is looking forward to playing in Italy next season.

Oliver Giroud - To Man City - 10,250,000

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/809/30xu.jpg/

If people thought Ramsey went on the cheap, Giroud definately did not! Man City paid 10.25m for a player Solskjaer thought had a stinking attitude and regularly missed training. The club will be a better place without him.

Players In

Gotuko Sakai - From Stuttgart - 16,500,000
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/545/t4xt.jpg/

Sakai was born in New York City to a Japanese father and a German mother. The family moved to Japan when he was two years old. He grew up in Sanj?, Niigata prefecture. Sakai started playing football at Sanj? junior soccer club, together with his brother Noriyoshi. At age 15, he joined Albirex Niigata youth academy and entered Kaishi Gakuen High School. His team played at the Prince Takamado Cup, All Japan Club Youth Soccer tournament and J. League Youth tournament.

Years later in his final year at school, he was chosen as one of the designated players for development by J. League Division 1 and JFA. With this status, he was able to register as a J. League club player while he was still eligible to play for his school. He made his Albirex first-team debut, at the age of 17, on 15 November 2008 in the Emperor's Cup match against FC Tokyo. He officially signed with Albirex Niigata in the following season. After becoming professional, he was assigned the number 24 shirt. He made his professional football debut in the opening J1 League match of the 2009 season also against FC Tokyo.

He signs from Stuttgart and Solskjaer can not wait to see him play. 'What an exciting signing we have here' Said Solskjaer.

Sven Bender - From Dortmund - 24,500,000

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/856/7c8j.jpg/

Sven comes in after Robert Lewandowski told Arsenal to have a look at him and the Central Midfielder will be looking to cement his place down. He is the ultimate hard worker and box to box which is what Solskjaer is lacking.
