Arsenal 2-1 Chelsea: London is Red
A few beers, a couple of whiskies and a 2–1 Arsenal win over Chelsea.

A few beers, a couple of whiskies and a 2–1 Arsenal win over Chelsea.

As a Brummie Arsenal fan, this fixture is one that is close to my heart.

Arsenal start their title defence in style, but what really stood out from the opening weekend? Five thoughts, one big concern — and a very fitting Song at the Whistle.

My 20 bold, ridiculous and hopefully prophetic Arsenal predictions for the 2026/27 season. Let’s see how many come true!

Arsenal are Community Shield champions again! And while some will insist it’s only a glorified friendly, I’m choosing to celebrate it – especially when beating Manchester City 3-0 means we get to call ourselves champions again

Bruno G is in, Vini Jr. is staying put, and Arsenal have somehow lost two friendlies. Time for another week of transfer optimism, denial and unnecessary panic.

I've spent the last few days repeatedly refreshing social media, convincing myself every update might be the update. With Bruno, Vini Jr and three gorgeous new kits dominating the conversation, here's where I stand.

If Arsenal are serious about taking the next step, where do we genuinely need reinforcements? I attempt to answer that question with questionable tactics, coloured boxes, and the obligatory dig at Chelsea.

World Cup disappointment, transfer window frustration, and a six-year-old asking better questions than most football pundits.
