Gunners too strong for Brighton

Brighton 2-3 Arsenal

Arsenal followed up their excellent performance at Manchester City with a professional display in the FA Cup away to Brighton, to become the only top side to confirm their place in the next round of the World’s oldest cup competition, following a weekend in which cup shocks rocked the Premier League.

Has Wenger cracked the code?

Man City 0-2 Arsenal 

Defensive stability, discipline and great determination. Not words anyone would have associated with an Arsenal away performance against one of the top Premier League sides in recent years. That is, not until Sunday, when the Gunners and Arsene Wenger turned recent history on its head to record a famous 2-0 win at the home of the current champions, Manchester City.

Stoke no match for Gunners

Arsenal 3-0 Stoke

Arsenal made up for last month’s disappointing 3-2 defeat away to Stoke, on Sunday, with quite possibly their best performance of the season so far, against the same opposition.

Festive fun!

Arsenal 2-1 QPR
West Ham 1-2 Arsenal
Southampton 2-0 Arsenal
Arsenal 2-0 Hull

Arsenal’s results over the hectic festive period, which notoriously throws up strange results, actually read quite well. The Gunners faced two London derbies against QPR and West Ham, in the space of two days and then another tough away trip to Southampton before an FA Cup third round tie at home to Hull.
