Premier League Archives: 10/2019

The Premier League will introduce specially-designed footballs to be used over the next two weeks as they hope to show their commitment to fighting racism with some more trinkets.

Arsenal are third in the Premier League, just a solitary point behind Manchester City but they are only ranked 31st across Europe in terms of their ratings and six Premier League sides are playing better at the minute.

Only Liverpool and Manchester City have won more games at home than Arsenal since Unai Emery arrived.

Arsenal sit top of the yellow card table with more yellows than anyone else, a higher yellow-per-game rate than any other side while picking up yellows for fewer fouls than any other side in the Premier League.

Arsenal made hard work of another home win on Sunday, this time against Bournemouth.

Arsenal claimed three points against Bournemouth and with City’s shock defeat at home to Wolves moved to within one point of second place, so why does it feel so bad?

Martin Atkinson will take charge of Arsenal’s game on Sunday against Bournemouth so we can expect the Cherries to kick with impunity.

Arsenal will go into their game against Bournemouth with one of their lightest injury lists in recent memory.

September has been and gone and a month that saw us start against Spurs and end against United told us quite a bit.

Unai Emery may be unbeaten at Old Trafford as Arsenal head coach, but he’s walking a very thin line with the Gunner’s faithful.

Granit Xhaka was determined to leave Old Trafford with a yellow card on Monday night and is now just one away from an automatic suspension despite it only being the start of October.

As I was browsing some stats this morning I couldn’t help notice Arsenal’s yellow card count in the league this season and wondered how it stacked up against other teams. It’s safe to say I was astounded by what I found.

Arsenal came from behind to draw against Manchester United on Monday night in a scrappy match that never really lived up to the hype.

When the linesman on Monday night flagged to rule Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang offside, we all assumed it must have been close, but it wasn’t even a hard call.
