An exclusive Wenger interview, classic goals, team news and a poll. This is your pre-match briefing ahead of our Premier League clash with Sunderland.
A SPRINT FINISH
Arsène Wenger must have enjoyed his customary re-run of our last game. Patience, intelligence, desire, confidence… it was all there in spades as Stoke City - so often a thorn in our side - were this time brushed aside.
We’ve had hiccups on the road but our away campaign ended on a free-flowing high with another endorsement of the team’s refined formation.
Six wins in seven is a powerful advert for 3-4-3 and it gave us the defensive security we’ve occasionally lacked in the Potteries.
