Just Arsenal News

The ex-Arsenal defender Nigel Winterburn has been looking at Arsenal’s opening fixtures next season, and thinks that the Gunners will have to have all guns blazing right from the start if they are going to challenge for the title, especially away from the emirates.

The opening match will be at Anfield, and Winterburn thinks they may be a bit of an unknown quantity with a new coach at the helm.

“Liverpool were very indifferent last season but they’ve got a new manager coming in.” said Winterburn. “It will be really difficult but you’ve got no form and no momentum going into the first game of the season so I don’t think Arsene Wenger will be that disappointed. ” .......Read the full article here

This will probably be my last post until Boxing Day, so its time to sign off with some pics of Babes in Arsenal Shirts to cheer everyone up over the festive season.

I have featured quite a few over the season, so i have built up a good selection for you to look at, and I am sure we all agree that gorgeous girls always look better in an Arsenal Shirt, just like my favourite one on the left here (Not that she is actually wearing it!) .......Read the full article here

The Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner has just been voted the Player-of-the-Year in Denmark, and he is becoming a big celebrity in his home country.

Not least because he has been dating a member of the Danish Royal Family who is also a star in her own right.

Baroness Caroline Luel-Brockdorff is a 34 year-old divorcee who got a £400m pay-off when she split from her banker husband Rory Fleming. .......Read the full article here

The Arsenal winger Theo Walcott must be quite proud that his girlfriend Melanie Slade is not an airhead. She is studying to be a physiotherapist at university, and is very determined to fulfil her wish to follow her own career as a physio.

Despite this, her relationship with Theo has also got her noticed enough that she has become the new face of fashion for Helly Hansen, and next week she will be going to Manchester to open their new store in the Arndale Centre. .......Read the full article here

It is a sign of the times when the biggest Arsenal news around is the fact that Gavin Hoyte has gone on loan to Brighton, and for just a month? What’s all that about?

Or you can read about the German manager saying that Arshavin is a genius? Well, we all know that anyway, so what’s the point of that? .......Read the full article here

The 19 year-old Arsenal midfielder Mark Randall impressed watchers last week when he helped Carlos Vela score against West Brom in the Carling Cup, and he still has high hopes of making the grade in Arsene Wenger’s side, and his long-term girlfriend Holly Jay is is also looking to step up in her modeling career.

She got her big break this week when she appeared in Zoo Magazine’s “Gimme a job” feature, and she certainly has the necessary qualifications to go far in her chosen career, and i’m not talking about her 10 GCSE’s! .......Read the full article here

The Arsenal defender Kieran Gibbs is currently dating the ex-lap dancer Amie Buck from Gateshead, who has just made it through to the X-Factor Boot Camp, and previously appeared in the Finals of Miss Newcastle

Amie doesn’t seem to be a very shy girl, although it seems that Cheryl Cole had to help calm her nerves at the X-Factor audition, but she has admitted that her time as a lap-dancer gave her the confidence to get up on the stage and strut her stuff in front of the X-Factor judges.. .......Read the full article here

Despite hours of back-breaking research on the web, the best WAG i could find is the newly married wife of the ex-Arsenal midfielder Alexandr Hleb. But i don’t feel guilty, because, as he admits in the article, he wishes that he had never left Arsenal!

Anastasia Kosenkova has decided not to take her husbands (awful) second name, as she is a star in her own right. The Sun reported how Hleb feels about marrying a pop star like this: ALEXANDER HLEB wants to be a No1 hit in Europe – just like his gorgeous missus.

The Stuttgart ace faced Rangers in their Champions League opener on Wednesday. .......Read the full article here

Now i rarely miss a chance to keep you all up to date with the private lives of the Arsenal players, and you will surely be seeing a lot more (geddit!) of Radka Kocurova now that Thomas is fit enough to join the team at last.

Radka is an A-list celebrity in her home country and a former Miss Czech Republic so she is certainly a looker, but can you believe that Thomas nearly split up with her by having a party with some Ahem…ladies of the night when off with the Czech national team? .......Read the full article here

Don’t you just get sick of listening to people going on and on and on about Adebayor’s antics at Man City. I have had just about enough of it. Why don’t they just ban him for the rest of the season then we can start talking about something else!

There is NO other news about Arsenal around, so i have been whiling away the time, doing some more serious research on the web, trying to find as many Gooner Babes as possible to lighten up the day. .......Read the full article here

To be honest i’m getting bored with all the thousands of articles about Emanuel Adebayors behaviour yesterday, so i’ve decided to inject a little fun into the proceedings.

I found this little article in the Daily Mail which says that the Arsenal star Andrey Arshavin has banned his missus (Yulia) from complaining about life in England, but they accompany it with a little pic of the couple where they seem to be enjoying themselves immensely!

I’m not quite sure where they got this snippet of gossip, but here is the article in full:

Even in imposing a vow of silence, the Arshavins can create headlines. .......Read the full article here

Quite a few uninhibited football websites have taken it upon themselves to “borrow” some photos of Melanie Slade from the German edition of FHM this week, so as Just Arsenal is never renowned for being too prudish to copy a very good idea on his website, i present the wonderful (future) Mrs Walcott.

Why on earth they didn’t do it in the English version of FHM is quite beyond me, as it is obvious that she is just as delectable to English fans as she is to Germans, and especially to discerning Arsenal fans, who are always keen to keep up with their idol’s private lives. .......Read the full article here
