It’s similar to the movie Hoosiers, in which any club, no matter how small, has a chance to knock any club, no matter how large. We saw a dose of this last spring when Wigan knocked Manchester City off to claim the FA Cup. For the first sixty minutes and again for most of the rest of regulation and into overtime, West Brom simply outplayed Arsenal and arguably deserved the win more than we....

The France international has been stellar for Arsenal since coming back on a free transfer from Italian giants AC Milan this season. “I admit I hesitated. I don’t usually let that happen. With me, once they leave, they leave,” said Wenger “But he has given us a balance between attacking and defending. “He is also somebody who accepts what I consider to be the dark role in the team. You need that for the balance of the team....
I have a lot of mixed feelings about what we’re up to (and not up to, depending on whom you ask) as I look back on the last seventeen years of Arsenal football—almost two decades. A generation has passed since Arsene Wenger came to the helm, and, in that time, Gooners have seen some truly wondrous football. Whether we look at silverware or style, outcomes or approaches, I hope we can all agree that his tenure has been an unvarnished success, a period of glory that most clubs would be hard-pressed to replicate without massive funding to make that happen....

New York congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who has long advocated for the wage hike, condemned the decision by the Democrats to not include a rise in hourly pay in their COVID-19 bill, while mentioning what workers in the European country make. “It is utterly embarrassing that ‘pay people enough to live’ is a stance that’s even up for debate,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted. “Override the parliamentarian and raise the wage. McD’s workers in Denmark are paid $22/hr + 6 wks paid vacation....

Embiid had taken a pass on the left wing and gone at Celtics center Aron Baynes. Embiid lowered his shoulder and plowed into Baynes once, then again. Baynes kept his arms vertical until Embiid went up, which is when Baynes brought his arms down. There was contact, but no whistle. Embiid missed the layup, tried a tip-in that missed and, when he came back down with the rebound, was stripped by Celtics guard Terry Rozier and lost the ball out of bounds....

"It was just a question of time and Santi Cazorla delivered two special goals," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said. "He was like the team, good in the first half and excellent in the second."

Three second-half goals were enough to see off Mikel Arteta’s men, as the home side barely managed to breach Liverpool’s defence, struggling to leave their own half for the majority of the game.

The game turned in Liverpool’s favour following the substitution of Andrew Robertson, which saw Diogo Jota coming the pitch, while James Milner covered at left-back....
WATCH: Ozil blasts Alexis & Monreal Former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas then lobbing Petr Cech after a poor clearance from the ex-Chelsea goalkeeper was the final nail in the coffin for a team who never looked like posing a genuine threat at Stamford Bridge throughout the 90 minutes. If Arsene Wenger’s side continue to put in performances like in this 3-1 defeat then they will be hard pressed to finish in the Premier League’s top four this season....
Aaron Ramsey headed the winner for Arsenal against 10-man Chelsea after Diego Costa had cancelled out a controversial opener from Alexis Sanchez. Wenger’s men have now won the FA Cup in three of the last four years, while he moves ahead of George Ramsey, who won the competition six times as a manager from 1887 to 1920, by claiming his seventh title. But the Frenchman’s future remains in doubt as his contract is due to expire at the end of the season and he is yet to confirm whether he intends to sign a new deal....

Bellerin twisted his knee against Chelsea in January and the Gunners have been cautious about rushing him back too quickly. Tierney, a new signing from Celtic, had been suffering with a groin injury since early August when he was still playing for the Scottish champions. But both are that bit closer to boosting head coach Unai Emery and the first team having returned to action on Friday, playing 63 minutes each in the 2-2 draw with Wolves....
