Premier League Archives: 10/2022

Arsenal have come through October still at the top of the league but will they remain there by the time the World Cup break rolls around?

Bukayo Saka had to be replaced in the 27th minute of Arsenal’s game against Nottingham Forest, so what is the latest on the 21-year-old?

Reiss Nelson was buzzing after the final whistle of Arsenal’s game against Nottingham Forest which saw him score a brace, and grab an assist as Arsenal won 5-0 and he’s hoping Arsenal can go ‘all the way’ in the title race.

The FA have announced that they will take no action following a report by officials that a Liverpool player possibly said something offensive during their recent Premier League game at the Emirates.

Nottingham Forest captain Ryan Yates can’t wait to face Arsenal after helping his team beat Liverpool at the weekend.

Former referee Mark Halsey says that Arsenal should have had a penalty against Southampton on Sunday and that Bukayo Saka should not have been booked for diving.

Arsenal’s winning run came to an end against Southampton but the sky didn’t come crashing in and the world didn’t explode.

As the World Cup closes in, the English press have become very concerned with the amount of football Bukayo Saka is playing for the club that pays his wages.

Mikel Arteta has urged Ainsley Maitland-Niles to ‘focus’ more on the present if the 25-year-old wants to have a future.

Arsenal have been charged for their part in the drama against Leeds caused by the referee getting both the penalty call and red card decision wrong.

Bukayo Saka has moved to the top of the Premier League Power Rankings after his goal was the difference between Arsenal and Leeds United at the weekend.

Two Arsenal players are at risk of a domestic suspension due to an accumulation of yellow cards and it speaks to Granit Xhaka’s reformation that he is not one of them.

After 10 games of the league season, Arsenal are the top performing side across the top five European Leagues.

Arsenal’s win at Leeds at Elland Road on Sunday meant that Arsenal stretched their lead at the top of the table to four points but it was a result that also brought up a couple of other milestones.

With their 1-0 win over Leeds at Elland Road on Sunday, Mikel Arteta’s men set a new Arsenal league record as they became the first side in the history of the club to win nine out of their first 10 league games.

Mikel Arteta was impressed with Arsenal in the first half against Leeds but wasn’t best pleased with what he saw from his side in the second half of the match at Elland Road.

Aaron Ramsdale was Arsenal’s Man of the Match in their game against Leeds on Sunday that was one of their toughest test of the season and believes his balls made the best save of the day.

Chris Kavanagh sent Gabriel off in injury time of the second half of Arsenal’s game against Leeds United but then overturned it and gave him a yellow with some wondering why it didn’t stay red, anyway?

Arsenal were more than a little fortunate to get away with the points at Elland Road but the referee was proved right to wait almost 40 minutes to get their tech working as he got both penalty calls wrong and needed VAR to save him.

Kevin de Bruyne knows Mikel Arteta well and he is delighted to see how well it is going for his former coach with Arsenal, but also hopes that the Gunners will not be good enough for City this year.
