The Costa Rica international signed for the Gunners in 2011, but work permit issues prevented him from making an immediate impact in England. He was eventually cleared to play in the Premier League and appeared to have made the breakthrough in north London during the 2015-16 campaign as he made 30 appearances in all competitions. Business as usual for Alexis Campbell was, however, deemed surplus to requirements again in 2016-17 and allowed to link up with Sporting in Portugal, with his representative considering that spell to have been positive as his client faces up to an uncertain future once more....

Mbappe has emerged as a hot property after scoring 27 goals in all competitions to lead Monaco to the Ligue 1 title, the semi-finals of the Champions League and the finals of the French League Cup. “He’s a player who, when he gets up in the morning, can choose where he wants to go,” Wenger was quoted as saying on the club website (www.arsenal.com). “There are not many players with that kind of luck, because he’s only 18 years of age and has the whole of Europe rolling out a red carpet for him....

Wenger was charged by the FA on Monday after he was sent to the stands by the referee for allegedly using abusive or insulting language towards fourth official after an injury-time penalty was awarded to Burnley. [nL4N1FD4OX] “Yes, I answered that in the press conference, I have little more to add. I am big enough to stand up for what I do,” Wenger told reporters on Thursday when asked if he would accept the charge....

The Gunners have started a Premier League campaign with successive victories for the first time in a decade to sit level on six points with Liverpool. Wins over Newcastle United and Burnley have built on the good feeling created by the close-season additions of Dani Ceballos, David Luiz, Kieran Tierney and Nicolas Pepe, the latter a club-record signing from Lille. Kroenke, son of Arsenal owner Stan, said the expenditure of more than £100million stemmed from the humiliating 4-1 loss to Chelsea in the Europa League final in May, a result that led to a “rethink” at board level....

“Yes, 100% I expect him to stay. There is no speculation – no matter what happens he will stay,” the manager was quoted saying in his second pre-season friendly clash in Australia. Looks like Liverpool can now strike off the English midfielder from their wish list. The Reds have not had a good summer as they have been frustrated repeatedly in their pursuit of Keita and Van Dijk - and it certainly doesn’t get better with Wenger’s comments....

The Gunners battled to a hard-fought 1-1 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday and are now in pole position to claim a top-three finish in the Premier League. While the hosts will be keen to return to winning ways, another draw would be enough to ensure third place, baring a huge goal swing between the two sides on the final day of the season. Arsene Wenger’s side have been, for the most part, hugely impressive in 2015 and are red-hot favorites to claim a victory over the Black Cats in north London, with the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook offering them at odds of -350....

Arsene Wenger has established that Russian playmaker Andrey Arhavin will most probably leave Arsenal this summer. There were reports earlier this month that the 31-year-old, who Arsenal bought for £15m from Zenit St Petersburg, will retire from football as soon as his current contract at Arsenal expires, with some reports even suggesting that Arshavin was Wenger’s worst buy at Arsenal. Yet, Wenger had nothing but praise for the much-maligned winger....

But the real reason young artists like Arcangel are getting butterflies is that the Whitney Biennial, which runs through May 30, is their biggest stage yet: the buzz-heavy Manhattan museum’s biannual survey of the alleged best of the latest stuff. There are 100-plus artists in the 2004 Biennial, almost half of them 35 or younger, all of them aware that gallery owners and collectors are on the prowl. For some artists, the Whitney pixie dust has worked....

TikTok user @hcross93 posted the video on her account where it amassed 2 million views in which she revealed that she was allotted $50 to use for supplies for the upcoming school year. A piece published by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences discussed the importance of supporting art education in public schools. It pointed out that while the arts have been considered a “core academic subject,” funding has continued to decline....

According to God of War lore, Ares forged the Blades of Chaos in the depths of the Underworld. They’re two blades attached with a chain and are imbued with fire, igniting enemies with each attack. Throughout the Greek mythology era, Kratos used the weapon to defeat powerful gods, like Zeus and Hades. In the 2018 Norse-era God of War game, Kratos retired the blades and used the Leviathan Axe for most of the story....

Al igual que sucede con el metaverso planteado por Meta, matriz de Facebook, todavía desconocemos los detalles de esta nueva experiencia digital inmersiva, pero parece que ambas compañías van a potenciar el potencial del juego en un espacio virtual, siempre de forma segura. A medida que el metaverso evoluciona, cambia la forma en que las personas se encuentran, juegan, trabajan, aprenden o interactúan en un mundo virtual en 3D. Aquí, las tecnologías de realidad virtual y realidad aumentada tienen mucho que ofrecer....

I grew up in the town of Muyuka, in the southwest region of Anglophone Cameroon. Anglophones in Francophone-dominated Cameroon experienced intense discrimination and marginalization. I was going to law school because I thought it could be a way for me to improve the condition of my country. But in 2016, any hope I had of bringing change was destroyed when the military was sent to brutalize and repress the peaceful protests of Anglophone leaders and citizens calling for equal representation....

The France international became the Gunners’ record signing over the summer as he completed a £46 million transfer. Lacazette 14/1 for Golden Boot Securing his signature brought a protracted chase to an end for Arsene Wenger, with Arsenal having been keen on the 26-year-old for several years. Lacazette claims he was lured to Emirates Stadium by the quality already at the club, with Sanchez seen an important figure despite his desire to secure a switch of his own....

The teams’ ties to the military academies, coupled with the players’ future service in their respective branches, make this a football game like no other. The annual turnout for the games, most often held in the historical host city of Philadelphia, are evidence of that. The same will be true when the teams kick off for the 123rd time on Saturday in the City of Brotherly Love. As always, neither rankings nor records nor postseason implications matter when the Black Knights and Midshipmen meet up on the field....

Considering my TV access doesn’t grant me viewing rights to the FA Cup, today the focus is on other clubs, as well as the Blues. Firstly to Manchester, can someone please check the registration papers of Paul Scholes? Apparently United players didn’t even know he was coming back until the hours before kick-off. Then he appears as a substitute! He’s probably already played more minutes than Owen “he’s not injured he’s just resting” Hargreaves....

Mahud Villalaz, 42, a U.S. citizen born in Peru, suffered second-degree burns to his face following in the attack which occurred on Friday, November 1 on the corner of 13th Street and Cleveland Avenue. Villalaz said a man approached him on the street and started arguing with him about where he was parking his vehicle. “He started talking like ‘you don’t respect our laws, you can’t invade my country, so go back to your country,” Villalaz told NBC’s Nightly News....

Of all the managers who have been spent their time at the helm of Chelsea, if I had to pick one manager to stay with us forever, I would definitely pick Jose Mourinho. But I have to tell you, you come in a distant second. It is a shame that you never mastered the art of defeating Arsenal during your 2 years here. Maybe if you had done that, we would have held on to you further....

Stephen Amell has been a longtime wrestling fan and has actually wrestled on three occasions. He wrestled once in WWE teaming up with Neville against Stardust (Cody Rhodes) and King Barrett at SummerSlam 2015. His appearance was well received. He then wrestled at a Ring of Honor where he joined the Bullet Club faction. This actually set up his eventual match at All In against Christopher Daniels. This was actually the match that really showcased Amell’s skills and proved that he could compete....

However, the Spaniard’s introduction to the league was not the happiest. A crippling 3-0 defeat to Manchester City at home on the opening day crushed hopes of a new and revitalised team as the same mistakes and gremlins were noticeable and there appeared to be no change whatsoever. The Gunners then went to Stamford Bridge, where they had not won since October 2011. Whilst it wouldn’t be fair to say most fans expected a win here, very few expected to be 2-0 down after 20 minutes....

Neil Warnock’s side had some golden opportunities in the first half, and they did not allow Arsenal dictate play. The Gunners meanwhile looked pathetic from open play, but were unlucky not to be given a penalty when Lacazette refused to go down to a bad challenge. But they did get a penalty in the second half, and they played with more freedom after the first goal. Iwobi’s inclusion in the second half gave them the much needed impetus to push for the second goal, which they eventually got through Lacazette....
