According to Arsenal.com, the 22 year Polish international today signed a “long-term contract for an undisclosed fee”. Fabianski joins Arsenal from Legia Warsaw, with whom he won the Polish Premiership in 2005-06. He was also named best keeper in the Polish Prem in 2006 & 2007.
This is interesting. It was obvious that Poom was never going to stay long, but the fight for #2 is wide open between Fabianski and Almunia. Perhaps that fight will also keep Mad Jens on his toes. A little strong competition for the starting role, and the upcoming Euro 2008 tournament, could...

Thanks indeed to Graham Poll, and the linesman whose name escapes me. Otherwise, a completely drab afternoon of football would have been even more unbearable. As it was, I suppose going out with a whimper sort of sums up the season as a whole. The promise was there (a missed penalty by Baptista among others), but in the end, we’re all left wanting.

Arsenal started the better of the two sides, and really should have been up by more than one when Chelsea got their equalizer, a glancing header by Michael Essien reviving the ten-men Blues and sparking them into action. Chelsea were playing as if the title depended on it, while Arsenal were simply playing not to lose.
In the dying...

Hey, just thought I’d throw this out there:
Love Wenger, big fan of everything he has done for the club. I believe he will be considered one of the 10 great managers in the history of top flight football in England. But, maybe, after 10 years, it’s time for the lads in the dressing room to hear another voice. How about Arsene moves to the front office in a technical director’s role and a new manager slots in? That new manager?
Ronald Koeman
Fantastic pedigree. As a player he...
