Chelsea 2 - 0 Arsenal Highlights

Chelsea 2 - 0 Arsenal Highlights

The Gunners conceded a poor goal after just seven minutes at Stamford Bridge, a quick corner whizzed into the near post where John Terry (who else!) rose unchallenged to flick a ball to the back stick and Didier Drogba stuck the ball over the line. Arsenal came back into the game after falling behind, but a 21st minute Blues counter-attack led by Lampard found Didier Drogba out wide on the right, the Ivorian cut past two Arsenal defenders and drilled a brilliant left foot shot past Almunia for his incredible 12th goal against the Gunners in 12 games.

Bolton Wanderers 0 - 2 Arsenal Highlights

Bolton Wanderers 0 - 2 Arsenal Highlights

Bolton were competitive in the opening exchanges against Arsenal, but just before the half hour the Gunners struck when Steinson lost the ball on the edge of his area, Cesc Fabregas picked up possession and had a neat one-two with Eduardo and the returning captain scored.

Bolton piled on the pressure after the break, but 13 minutes from time the Trotters were caught out on the counter-attack and Eduardo crossed for Fran Merida to score his first ever goal in the Premier League.

Arsenal 2 - 2 Everton Highlights

Arsenal 2 - 2 Everton Highlights

In the only surviving 3pm kick-off in snowy England, Everton sprung a surprise early doors at Arsenal as Leon Osman headed home Landon Donovan’s first ever corner for the Toffees after 12 minutes. The Gunners continued to be off the pace after the goal, but after putting together an attack around the Everton box in the 26th minute, the returning Denilson saw his shot deflect off Osman and into the net.

A blizzard took over the Emirates after the break but it failed to break Everton’s stronghold on the match, and just over ten minutes from time the Toffees scored a brilliant and deserved second when Steven Pienaar broke the home offside on the halfway-line, raced 30-yards, and cheekily lifted the ball over Almunia. But Arsenal refused to be beaten, and in the 91st minute a typical attack saw Diaby provide the perfect pass for Tomas Rosicky, whose shot looped off defender Neill and over Howard.

Arsenal 3 - 0 Aston Villa Highlights

Arsenal 3 - 0 Aston Villa Highlights

Arsenal and Villa were nip/tuck throughout a highly competitive first half, which forced Wenger to introduce captain Fabregas ten minutes after the break. And it didn’t take long for the substitution to pay dividends as Cesc Fabregas curled a right-footed free-kick past Friedel in the 64th minute.

With Villa scrambling for an equaliser ten minutes from time Traore collected a loose ball before pinging a cross-field pass to Walcott who in turn threaded a pass forward to Cesc Fabregas to slide home his second of the match. Worryingly, the Arsenal captain was soon forced off with an injury picked up from his second goal. As the match ticked into injury time Abou Diaby picked up the ball in Villa’s half, advanced, and coolly curled home a killer third to thrust the Gunners right back in the title race.

Arsenal were held to a 1-1 draw against a battling Burnley side at Turf Moor.
Tenacity from Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas put the Gunners in front at Burnley as the skipper harasses Carlisle out of possession on the edge of the Clarets box and the Spaniard side-footed his effort past Jensen. The Clarets equalised just before the half hour when Vermaelen fouled Bikey in the Arsenal and Graham Alexander converted from 12 yards.

Sunderland 1 - 0 Arsenal Highlights

Sunderland 1 - 0 Arsenal Highlights

Darren Bent's ninth goal of the season condemned Arsenal to a first defeat in 14 attempts as Sunderland claimed another big scalp.

The England international stabbed home from close range with 71 minutes gone to seal a famous victory in a tight encounter at the Stadium of Light.

Black Cats keeper Marton Fulop had earlier made a fine save to deny Tomas Rosicky, but the Gunners failed to make the most of the possession they enjoyed and ultimately paid for it.

Arsenal are in the title race

Arsene Wenger's men are now the closest challengers to Barclays Premier League leaders Chelsea, five points behind but with a match in hand, following their 4-1 win at Wolverhampton Wanderers and Manchester United's defeat at Stamford Bridge.

Arsenal have recovered strongly from their successive defeats by both Manchester clubs, embarking upon an unbeaten run of 13 matches in all competitions and now having scored 36 goals in 11 league matches.

Arsenal 3 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur Highlights EPL

Arsenal 3 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur Highlights EPL

Arsenal had their first effort on target on the quarter hour as William Gallas narrowly missed with a header from a dangerous Van Persie free-kick. Heurelho Gomes then earned his Tottenham paycheck as the giant keeper needed every inch of his frame to shuffle across his line and one-handedly save Fabregas’ shot. After the Gunners had the lions’ share of the first half they made their possession count with two goals in two minutes. Bacary Sagna’s low cross from the right was converted by Robin van Persie into Gomes’ near post. And for the kick-off Spurs’ Palacios immediately lost the ball, inviting an incredible solo run from Cesc Fabregas that saw the Arsenal captain rip through their arch enemy for Arsenal’s second. Just before the hour, after Bentley had forced a smart save from Almunia, Arsenal scored a killer and controversial third as ref Clattenberg allowed play to continue after Diaby was taken out by Bale, and from Sagna’s cross Gomes and King failed to stop Van Persie adding his second of the game.

Newcastle United vs Arsenal

Newcastle will welcome back Kevin Nolan from suspension for Saturday's Barclays Premier League clash with Arsenal.

The midfielder has missed the last three games after being sent off for a horror challenge on Everton striker Victor Anichebe.

Full-back Habib Beye is also available for the first time since damaging ankle ligaments at Wigan on Boxing Day, although midfielder Danny Guthrie (hamstring) is not yet ready to return.

Joey Barton (fractured metatarsal) is targeting the end of next month for his comeback, but Mark Viduka and Ignacio Gonzalez (both Achilles) and Xisco (fractured toe) remain on the sidelines.

Meanwhile, Chris Hughton is determined to hand the reins back to Newcastle boss Joe Kinnear with a recovery already well under way.

Kinnear confirmed on Friday that he hopes to be back at the helm at St James' Park in time for Tottenham's visit on April 18 as he continues his recuperation from heart surgery.

AS Roma vs Arsenal Highlights

AS Roma vs Arsenal Highlights

Arsene Wenger well not send his Arsenal team out to defend their narrow advantage against Roma at the Stadio Olimpico on Wednesday.

The Gunners are 1-0 ahead from the first leg of their last-16 tie, on the back on an unbeaten 17-match run in all competitions.

Sunday's 3-0 victory over Burnley in the FA Cup fifth round - which set up a potential semi-final date with Chelsea at Wembley next month - was a 10th clean sheet from the last 14 games as the Gunners once again displayed their renewed defensive security.

Defender Kolo Toure has recovered from a calf problem and jetted out with the rest of squad, as Wenger reported no fresh injury concerns from the weekend - although Russian Andrei Arshavin is cup-tied.

That could mean both Theo Walcott and Eduardo - who netted a brilliant volley against Burnley - are in contention to face the Italians.

While a strong defensive display would secure safe passage into the last eight, Wenger maintained on the club's official website: "I do not think that is the way to behave going into a game like this as it is too dangerous.

Arsenal vs Burnley Highlights

Theo Walcott looks set to return to the Arsenal squad for the FA Cup tie against Burnley after being sidelined with a shoulder problem since November.

Striker Eduardo (hamstring) could also be in contention but defender Kolo Toure (calf) will not feature.

William Gallas (ankle) is fit again while Lukasz Fabianski will again get the chance to impress when he replaces Manuel Almunia in goal.

Mikael Silvestre (calf), Emmanuel Adebayor (hamstring), captain Cesc Fabregas (knee) and Tomas Rosicky (hamstring tendon) remain sidelined.

Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner has warned Burnley he will not make the same mistakes as the last time they faced each other when the Clarets come to Emirates Stadium.
