    Arsenal Crushed 3-0 At Brighton: Where Did It Go Wrong?

    That was a completely unacceptable performance from Mikel Arteta's side. The unbeaten Premier League start is over, and we were played off the park on the South Coast. 🔴⚪ n this post-match reaction episode of The Real Arsenal Deal, we dissect the disastrous 3-0 defeat to Brighton at the Amex. We break down the unusually sloppy performance, the failure of our makeshift defense, and how Fabian Hürzeler managed to completely dismantle us. From Pascal Groß and Charalampos Kostoulas scoring from outside the penalty area to conceding a terrible third goal from a corner to Chema Andrés, nothing went right. We also look at Arteta's substitutions—bringing on Zubimendi, Merino, Gyökeres, and Eze when the game was already slipping away—and what this crushing reality check means heading into the international break. Where do you even begin with that performance? Who is to blame?

    Brighton vs Arsenal Preview: Predicted XI & Defensive Injury Crisis?

    Just one more game before the international break, but the casualty list is piling up. 🔴⚪ In this episode of The Real Arsenal Deal, we’re previewing a massive, high-stakes away clash against Fabian Hürzeler’s Brighton. We dive deep into the cluster of defensive injuries threatening our perfect Premier League start. With William Saliba still a long-term absentee, Mikel Arteta is now sweating over the fitness of Ben White, Piero Hincapié, and Cristhian Mosquera, while Jurriën Timber's minutes are being heavily managed. Can a makeshift backline survive the Amex? We also discuss the fallout from the Carabao Cup—after poor midweek auditions, Viktor Gyökeres and Eberechi Eze are out of the starting picture. Meanwhile, the midfield debate rages on: does Bruno Guimarães finally oust Myles Lewis-Skelly in the engine room? We need three points to protect the unbeaten run before the international break finally gives this squad a chance to rest and recover. Who makes your Starting XI for this crucial fixture?

    Arsenal 4-2 Ipswich: Max Dowman Bosses EFL Cup Win!

    A heavily-rotated Arsenal side stepped into Portman Road for the Carabao Cup third round and put on an absolute show! 🔴⚪ Mikel Arteta unleashed the youth, and 16-year-old sensation Max Dowman grabbed his opportunity with both hands, bagging an incredible brace to become the second youngest player to score for a Premier League side in the EFL Cup. With Noni Madueke and Mikel Merino also getting on the scoresheet, we blew Ipswich Town away 4-2. While the late consolation goals from Anis Mehmeti and Chuba Akpom might frustrate the boss, the story of the night is the sheer depth and attacking flair this squad possesses. In this episode of The Real Arsenal Deal, we break down Dowman’s historic performance, analyze the midfield rotation with Merino getting his goal, and discuss what this means for our Carabao Cup campaign.

    Fresh off absolutely battering Napoli in the Champions League, Arsenal face a brutal Saturday night turnaround as we travel to the Stadium of Light to take on Sunderland. While the attack is creating chances for fun, Mikel Arteta is facing a massive tactical headache on the right side of the defense.

    London is RED, and frankly, 2-1 flatters Chelsea massively.

    Transfer Window Shut, No New Forward | Do Arsenal Have Enough to Win the League Again?

    The summer transfer window is officially closed, and Mikel Arteta has made a massive call.
