Really interesting stuff.

How Benfica’s stadium renovation could offer clues to Emirates upgrade

With talk of Emirates Stadium expansion making headlines again, courtesy of The Telegraph, it’s worth looking at what Benfica are doing to transform the Estadio da Luz – a ground designed by the same architects as the Emirates, Populous, with a near-identical bowl shape and capacity. The current Luz opened in 2003, built in time […] The post How Benfica’s stadium renovation could offer clues to Emirates upgrade appeared first on Arseblog News - the Arsenal news site.

Not heard anything from the club on the matter in a couple of years. Who knows, maybe it's something they could incorporate into this project.

If I shared the names of some of the others who've shown interest, you wouldn't be very impressed. Believe me.

This is the earliest Happy Invincibles Day since 2020-21 when all teams had been defeated at least once by their sixth match.

Daily Cannon @dailycannon.com · 6d

Crystal Palace's long unbeaten run is over.

That's the last unbeaten team in the Premier League defeated.

Happy Invincibles Day!

Feels early this season.

Circa 32,000 views of the Arsenal Matchday Recommendations Map - www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/e...

Lots of Islington-related pins & supporters groups added for US & Canada.

Now looking to hear from Arsenal fans across Europe - where do you recommend watching games?

Of course. And noted Brighton is a cup game.

Every dropped point last season could be attributed to a combination of injuries, rotation, poor play, mistakes and red cards. I'm merely pointing out that these are 'lesser' teams that we failed to get wins against last season.

A lot of talk about Arsenal's next run of fixtures being more favourable. Well, of the four October fixtures we've got coming up, we took 3/12 points last season.

This is where we need to improve...

Arsenal vs West Ham - 0-1
Fulham vs Arsenal - 1-1
Arsenal vs Palace - 2-2
Arsenal vs Brighton - 1-1

Also via @orbinho.bsky.social - when Saliba starts in the Premier League, Arsenal have conceded on average 0.8 goals per game, and when he has been absent, it is 1.5 goals per game.

Some Saliba stats courtesy of @orbinho.bsky.social

• 137 starts = 55 clean sheets

• 104 starts in Premier League = 43 clean sheets (41%) - the 3rd best record behind Linighan (42%) & Adams (46%).

Confirmed: William Saliba signs new Arsenal contract

William Saliba has committed his future to Arsenal after penning a deal that will keep him at the club until 2030. The France international had two years left on his current contract, so it’s effectively a three-year extension coupled with a well-earned pay rise. Saliba signed for the Gunners in 2019 for £27 million from […] The post Confirmed: William Saliba signs new Arsenal contract appeared first on Arseblog News - the Arsenal news site.
