Declan Rice said what Arsenal are terrified to confess about Elliot Anderson

Manchester City made one of the biggest signings of the summer 2026 transfer window so far, splurging well over 100 million pounds to sign Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest after he was the biggest breakout No. 8 of the 2025/26 Premier League season. Meanwhile, Arsenal are still in the hunt for a blockbuster midfielder of their own. For some reason, they did not prioritize Anderson, possibly because manager Mikel Arteta did not like his fit in his scheme, but after missing out on Sandro Tonali, the Gunners are going all in for his Newcastle United teammate Bruno Guimaraes. It sounds like Arsenal's only set starter in the midfield, Ballon d'Or candidate Declan Rice, is a huge fan of Elliot Anderson's, and maybe he feels like the Gunners missed out on his England national teammate...

Morgan Rogers said something Arsenal fans never expected about his transfer

Aston Villa left winger and attacking midfielder Morgan Rogers has been one of the most productive players in the Premier League ever since breaking out a couple of seasons ago, and virtually every Big Six club has taken a look at him. Although Arsenal won the Premier League to get the monkey off their back in 2025/26, the Gunners still need to do more to make sure they stay on top over Manchester City and win the Champions League, too, after heartbreak in penalties against PSG. Rogers is squarely on Arsenal's transfer radar as a big time upgrade on the left wing, and while Aston Villa are holding out a king's ransom for their most valuable player, Rogers himself does not think he should go for that match. The England international said of being valued at an insane 130 million pou...

Bukayo Saka could flip the recent narrative with one big game

England will face one of the host nations, Mexico, on Sunday night in the World Cup Round of 16, and while the Three Lions always like to think of themselves as one of the favorites and have been Finalists in the last two European Championships, they know there is a reason why they have not won the big one in decades. Although Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane have stepped up massively in this World Cup with clutch goals and all around performances, there are so many other players, including champions of the Premier League, who have not stepped up at all or shown that same winning DNA. Bukayo Saka is fresh off hoisting the Premier League title to break Arsenal's drought, but their star right winger has been having a down year even for the Gunners and continues to be shocking for England...

The latest Declan Rice injury update has Arsenal fans furious with Thomas Tuchel

Arsenal star and Ballon d'Or candidate Declan Rice is a crucial player for the England national team at the base of the midfield, just as he is for the Gunners, but the fans of the Premier League champions now have reason to worry. England national team manager Thomas Tuchel, who used to manage rivals Chelsea to Champions League success, has drawn the ire of the supporters after revealing that Rice is a ton of pain right now. Tuchel said of Rice, via afcstuff, “I asked him. He said, ‘I can do it for the team, but I am in terrible pain’. When Declan tells you he is in terrible pain, then you know he cannot take it anymore. There is no injury, it’s more neural pain.” Arsenal fans will have questions about what exactly Thomas Tuchel means by Declan Rice being in "neural pain", but a...

The latest William Saliba injury update is exactly what Arsenal fans dreaded

Arsenal star William Saliba is one of the best center backs in the world and alongside partner Gabriel Magalhaes a real center piece for the reigning Premier League champions. But Arsenal have a fresh injury concern on Saliba, as Simon Jones of the Daily Mail reports, via afcstuff, that there are serious concerns regarding the Frenchman's long term fitness in North London owing to a chronic back injury. Therefore, Arsenal may be investing again in the center back position this summer even after adding two great players in Piero Hincapie and Cristhian Mosquera to an already star studded bunch including Ben White, Riccardo Calafiori, and Gabriel. Mikel Arteta and Arsenal already have Aston Villa and England national team standout Ezri Konsa on their radar, and depending on how they ...

Fabrizio Romano revealed the player Mikel Arteta wants more than anyone else

Arsenal signed Martin Zubimendi alongside Declan Rice and won the Premier League, but they are after more midfield help in the summer 2026 transfer window after Zubi fizzled out and got exposed a bit in the English top flight by the end of the season. According to a report from Fabrizio Romano, after missing out on the midfielder they previously wanted in Sandro Tonali, who joined Tottenham Hotspur for 100 million pounds without so much of a fight from the Gunners, Arsenal have turnd their attention to his Newcastle United teammate Bruno Guimaraes. Per Fab, Mikel Arteta is the driving force in the hunt for Bruno G. Fab says that he is a top midfield target for the Gunners and that the Arsenal manager is pushing hard for Bruno behind the scenes, even though Newcastle do not want to gi...

Juventus just confirmed what Arsenal fans were hoping wasn’t true about Kenan Yildiz

Arsenal are in need of a new superstar left winger, because while Gabriel Martinelli has his moments, particularly in the clutch like just recently at the World Cup with his winner for Brazil vs. Japan, he is not consistent enough to be the main man. The Gunners most frequently linked superstar left winger target has been Juventus man Kenan Yildiz, because while he is coming off a terrible World Cup himself for flops Turkey, his ability to score from out of nowhere and his technical quality have kept the otherwise anemic attacking Bianconeri afloat. According to a report from Turkish Football, via afcstuff, Arsenal are still actively pursuing a big money transfer for Yildiz, but the kind of money it would take to sign him may be even more onerous than fans thought. Apparently Juve...

It didn’t take Mikel Arteta long to identify Arsenal’s next dream defensive signing

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta loves loading up on top class defenders. He has signed Riccardo Calafiori, Cristhian Mosquera, and Piero Hincapie in recent seasons, and he has an established Premier League player on his transfer radar now, too. According to a report from the Daily Telegraph's Matt Law, via afcstuff, the defending Premier League champions want to steal away Ezri Konsa from Aston Villa this summer. The 28 year old England international is likely to cost 60 million pounds due to his importance to Villa, who are back to the Champions League, and like previous midfield transfer target Sandro Tonali, who joined rivals Tottenham Hotspur recently for 100 million pounds, Konsa is likely to end up costing more than what Arsenal are willing to pay. Arsenal have kept Piero Hinca...

Ranking the 10 best English players in the Premier League this season

With the 2026 World Cup on the horizon, now is as good of a time as ever to take stock of the English talent playing in the Premier League right now, scouting out their form. Here are the 10 best English players in the Premier League of the 2025/26 campaign, ranked in order. 10. Chelsea AM Cole Palmer Even in a down year for him personally, Cole Palmer is still one of the best non strikers in the Premier League at finding the back of the net with nine goals in 17 starts. If you believed Palmer was a Ballon d'Or candidate in the past, then you had better believe he still has heaps of quality. The skill and shooting ability have clearly not left him, even in this difficult 2025/26 campaign. 9.

ESPN’s Premier League Power Rankings spit out troubling prognosis for Arsenal

Arsenal have been in the driver's seat of the Premier League title race throughout the entire season, but everyone else in the league has been watching on with envy, just waiting for the Gunners to wilt before the season ends. So far, there has been no sign of an impending collapse. Even with key players like Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka either hurt or underperforming, a tired Arsenal squad remains strong, buoyed by an elite defense and a midfield that has exerted greater control after adding Martin Zubimendi this summer. Even so, not everyone is high on Arsenal's ability to remain impenetrable this season, and ESPN's Ryan O'Hanlon recently produced a Premier League Power Rankings piece with a formula based around squad value, expected goal difference, passing accuracy in build up...
