The pair were among those rested for Sunday’s win over Southampton, with Arsene Wenger prioritising success on the continent for the remainder of the campaign. The Gunners hold a 4-1 lead from the first leg as they travel to the Russian capital, but after a week of remarkable comebacks they are leaving nothing to chance. In total they make two changes from the team that started the first leg at the Emirates Stadium....
In a news that will irk Spurs supporters, Bentley advised the Gunners to go all out for Real Madrid’s Gareth Bale. He told 888sport: The Real Madrid superstar is definitely one of the best in the world and rumours about his departure from Spain refuse to go away. It definitely makes sense for Arsenal to sign a proven Premier League player, but Bale will not be short of suitors in case he is willing to move....
The pair of defenders are set to travel to North-London imminently to complete formalities of the deal. The double signing comes as a massive boost to Unai Emery, as the Spanish tactician has looked to bolster the Arsenal rearguard all summer. In case you didn’t know… While Arsenal have courted Tierney for the entirety of the summer, the club’s interest in Luiz intensified in recent days after the Brazilian was involved in a series of fall-outs with Chelsea....
The Gunners will be high on confidence after their thumping 3-0 victory against BATE Borisov on Thursday night. With Manchester United playing Liverpool later today, a win could see Arsenal getting back into the top 4 and depending on the result at Old Trafford, Arsenal could find themselves in that last Champions League spot at the end of the weekend. The Gunners are unbeaten in their last 12 league matches at the Emirates and have won their last 6 matches....
Coupled with news that Mathieu Flamini has signed for Galatasaray (joining Podolski) and Diaby not being offered a contract, we’re seeing a clear-out just as aggressive if not more so than last summer’s, when we parted ways in various ways with Sagna, Vermaelen, Bendtner, Djourou, and Fabia?ski, among others. Those who were once good enough are being replaced. Should Szcz?sny indeed be loaned out, Arsène would indeed be staking a claim to a more aggressive agenda, one that should strike fear into our opponents’ hearts....
Osteoarthritis (OA), also called degenerative joint disease or wear-and-tear arthritis, happens over time as cartilage around joints wears down. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the lining of the joints, often on both sides of the body at once, causing painful swelling and bone erosion. OA doesn’t affect fertility or the baby during pregnancy, but it can increase discomfort in your joints as your body is under additional strain from the growing baby....

In a post on TikTok, a user known as Austin Light shared a collection of drawings based on Cuphead. What made these images stand out was that each fashioned the main character based on a different era in cartoon history. While the original art for the character was influenced by classic cartoons from the 1930s, these new drawings managed to reinvent Cuphead in various art styles.

Elizabeth Cole Stirling, a clinical psychologist in Santa Fe, N.M., has helped couples work through these issues for three decades. When she first started her practice in Washington, D.C., in 1972, most couples became acquainted with the daily habits of their partners only after a blissful honeymoon, and the discovery often came as a shock. Today most couples have spent months and even years in each others’ houses or apartments before deciding to live together....
Arvidsson scored twice and the reigning Presidents’ Trophy-winning Predators held on for a 4-3 victory Saturday night, spoiling the Islanders’ home opener. “We got what we came here for and a great start for the season,” Arvidsson said. “Excited for the home opener (against Calgary on Tuesday night), come home to Nashville and play for our fans.” Mattias Ekholm and Craig Smith also scored, and P.K. Subban had two assists for the Predators, who beat the Rangers 3-2 at Madison Square Garden in the season-opener Thursday night....
The lack of beds is partly caused by patients driving in from rural areas that lack hospitals. “Many people in Montgomery hospitals are not from Montgomery,” Reed said. “They’re suffering because they don’t have the rural health care system in place that they need.” Montgomery city health officials are instructing sick people to try and gain admittance into the hospitals of Birmingham, the state’s largest city, more than 100 miles north....
Nick Rankin announced in a Facebook post on Thursday that the dog, named Fossy, had been found. “FOSSY IS FOUND AND HEADING HOME!” Rankin said in the post. “I can’t even begin to express my gratitude to the Boardman community! Thank you so much!!” Rankin had asked the local community for help in finding the two-year-old German Shepherd, who helps him manage his post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). He only moved to the area two weeks ago from New York....
She wows an audience in San Francisco with her campaign pitch for her husband, Arnold Schwarzenegger, “10 Things You Should Know About Arnold,” before deftly fielding questions about whether she thinks the press has been fair to him (no) to whether, as a Democrat, she favors the California recall (yes). But when someone asks “What kind of First Lady would you be?” Shriver is–momentarily–at a loss for words. “I have no clue,” she says, before quickly adding with a touch of Schwarzeneggerian bravado....
On the actor’s Twitter Thursday, he wrote that he celebrated Christmas early with the donation. Village for Vets’ mission is to help end homelessness among veterans. “It was fantastic to spend some time with our heroes and welcome them into their new homes,” Schwarzenegger said. “This is what Christmas is all about.

In a conference call on Friday, Chapman opened up on a few offseason topics surrounding him, regarding his free agency journey and bringing a World Series to the North Side of Chicago. Most telling was Chapman’s critique of Joe Maddon’s use of him in the World Series. He pitched to the tune of a 3.52 ERA in the Fall Classic, which was 2 1/2 runs higher than his regular-season ERA with the Cubs (1....
Arsenal controlled possession in the early stages of the game yet weren’t able to create anything of note. The best chances in the first half fell to the visitors as Reid fluffed his lines on two occasions. In the second half, Arsenal tried to raise the tempo. Manga’s moment of madness in the 65th minute gave the home side a chance to go ahead from the penalty spot. Aubameyang made no mistake and slotted his spot-kick past Etheridge....
With Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang getting back on the scoresheet, Arsenal registered a thumping 4-0 win, with Granit Xhaka and Cedric Soares bagging a goal apiece as well. The Premier League’s top scorer this season and the fastest ever Arsenal player to reach 50 Premier League goals, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had a field day as Norwich City gifted him two goals. It was an overall impressive performance, especially defensively, by Arsenal. With the help of some defensive errors by Norwich City, Arsenal move up the table in an attempt to secure European football next season....
Sick of playing second fiddle to Zlatan Ibrahmiovic in the PSG front-line, Lavezzi is rumoured to be seeking a move. Such news has put both North London sides, as well as Milan duo Inter and AC, on red alert. Lavezzi is said to be eager for more first team action ahead of next summer’s World Cup in Brazil. The Argentine has yet to complete a league game for PSG this season, making four appearances from the bench and being subbed off in all of his other seven games....
Cech defends Alexis Sanchez The Gunners will tackle their Champions League conquerors in Shanghai on July 19 before they meet Chelsea three days later in Beijing’s Bird’s Nest Stadium. It is an encounter that may give some fans of the north London club nightmares, as they saw Arsene Wenger’s side emphatically beaten 10-2 on aggregate by the Germans in the last 16 of the Champions League. Both legs ended 5-1 in favour of the Bundesliga champions, with Bayern having also defeated the Gunners by the same scoreline in a group game back in 2015....
The north London outfit have been persistently linked with the striker while head coach Mikel Arteta has made no secret of his desire to bring in a new attacker. That’s because the club is currently going through a crisis in the forward department. Arsenal’s prolific goalscorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has fallen out of favor following a disciplinary breach last month that also led to him being stripped of the captaincy. The Spanish coach has left him out of his squad since the Gunners’ 3-0 win against Southampton on December 11....
