Arsenal u23s came from behind to earn a point away to Chelsea.

Eddie Nketiah hailed the u23s’ character after they came from 2-1 behind to draw 2-2 with Chelsea’s u23s on Saturday.

Arsenal have won 44% of their matches in the last five years when down to 10 men.

Chelsea decided that Eddie Nketiah was too small to play professional football before releasing him.

Arsenal are in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals after beating Norwich City in the fourth round, and will find out their opponents in the last eight when the draw commences this afternoon.

Chelsea are reportedly considering a bid for Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud in January, with manager Antonio Conte having approached him during the FIFA awards in the week.

After Eddie Nketiah’s late brace against Norwich City in the League Cup on Tuesday night, many have been questioning why on earth Chelsea let the 18-year-old go two years ago.

Inter Milan have reportedly withdrawn their interest in rumoured Arsenal target, Arturo Vidal.

Jack Wilshere could boost the home-grown quota at either Manchester City or Chelsea, according to reports.

Arsenal have no leaders and are too soft. That was the line trotted out after the defeat to Watford last Saturday.

Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea are all reportedly ready to battle it out for France u17 striker Lenny Pintor.

Borussia Dortmund have reportedly joined in the race for Schalke midfielder, Leon Goretzka.

Inter Milan are reportedly hoping to tie Mauro Icardi down to a new deal as they believe his £99m release clause is too low for the current market.

Incredibly, Arsenal have won exactly the same amount of points as Chelsea in London derbies since the start of the Premier League era.

Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea serve the best food in the Premier League, according to a Brazilian journalist. 

Chelsea, Manchester City and Arsenal apparently have the best food in the Premier League at their home grounds.

Jack Wilshere thinks Alexandre Lacazette’s strong start has gone under the radar because of Alvaro Morata’s success with Chelsea.

The Premier League clubs have failed to come to a resolution on whether the ‘big six’ clubs should get a greater percentage of foreign TV revenues.

Chelsea want to sign Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez in January in order to keep manager Antonio Conte happy and at the helm, according to latest reports.

The big six clubs won’t react kindly if the proposal to base TV money distribution on league position isn’t voted in this week, according to reports.
