Arsenal’s Unai Emery feels his side must work harder to cut out errors that cost them to concede two goals in their win over Cardiff.

Former Arsenal striker Nwankwo Kanu says that it’s up to the players to adapt to Unai Emery’s tactics.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette both score as Arsenal had to beat back Cardiff City twice to claim all three points.

Watford’s Ben Foster feels sorry for Petr Cech after seeing the Arsenal goalkeeper struggle with playing the ball out from the back.
Foster told BBC’s Radio 5 Live that it is hard for a veteran goalkeeper to suddenly change his game, with Cech being asked to take an active part in Arsenal’s passing game by coach Unai Emery.
Cech’s mistakes with his feet nearly cost his team against Manchester City and Cardiff City, although the 36-year-old has also bailed Arsenal out with a number of key saves.
“Cech…

After missing a golden chance, Riyad Mahrez made amends to earn Leicester a share of the points against West Brom.

Ben Foster aggravated a knee injury while playing with his children, West Brom coach Tony Pulis said.
West Brom coach Tony Pulis revealed a knee injury kept Ben Foster out of Monday night’s 1-1 draw at Leicester.
Albion have yet to determine the extent of the injury, which the 34-year-old goalkeeper sustained during the international break while playing in the garden with his children.
However, Pulis admitted he is worried about the problem given Foster missed 10 months in the 2015-16 season with anterior cruciate ligament damage.
To compound his goalkeeping problems, stand-in Boaz Myhill, making…

Janusz Michallik and Alexis Nunes take a long look at how the Premier League top 6 shaped out this season.
West Brom’s season was very much in three parts, a poor beginning and end bookmarked by a four-month spell from November to February that ultimately resulted in a successful season with a top-half finish.

West Brom’s 2-1 win over Leicester at the King Power stadium was what really kickstarted their season. Matt Phillips had looked short on confidence following his summer move from Queens Park Rangers, but his assist and then winning goal in this fixture seemed to ignite…

Jordy Clasie’s lone goal and Fraser Forster’s stout goalkeeping sealed back-to-back Premier League wins for Southampton.

A run of three games in a week ended with West Brom succumbing to a 1-0 loss against Southampton at The Hawthorns on Saturday, meaning that Tony Pulis’ side failed to score in any of their three games in that week-long period.

After a tremendous run of home form, West Brom has lost two of its past three fixtures at The Hawthorns, which suggests that teams may now have a game plan in place to combat the main threats of Pulis’ team.

Despite playing a man down for the final 25 minutes, Watford held on to a 2-0 win highlighted by M’baye Niang’s stunner.

A combination of poor marking and not converting their chances led to defeat for West Brom according to Tony Pulis.

After a tremendous rear-guard action at Old Trafford to earn a 0-0 draw, West Brom were brought back down to earth with a crash as they put in a lacklustre performance in a 2-0 loss to Watford at Vicarage Road on Tuesday.

Tony Pulis’ side appeared to be exhausted both mentally and physically, with some uncharacteristically poor defensive play allowing Watford a couple of opportunities they took full advantage of.

Man United lost pace with the top four following a dismal performance at Old Trafford against WBA.
West Brom put in a defensive masterclass against Manchester United at Old Trafford to secure a 0-0 draw. While Jose Mourinho criticised West Brom after the game, there will surely be a part of him that, begrudgingly, respected the discipline and organisation of the defensive effort put in by Tony Pulis’ side. It was a fantastic start to a week which contains three fixtures, that could potentially take West Brom to their record Premier League tally.

The intense pressure on Arsene Wenger mounts after Arsenal were swept aside by West Brom at The Hawthorns.

Tony Pulis has only praise for his side securing 40 points so quickly this season, as well as their key win over Arsenal.

After poor performances against Crystal Palace and Everton, West Brom moved forward from the 40-point mark with an outstanding display against Arsenal at The Hawthorns. Despite having only 23 percent possession, nobody could argue that Tony Pulis’ team were much the better side, looking dangerous every time they counter-attacked and even more so from set pieces. West Brom were simply too powerful for an Arsenal side that didn’t look up for the battle.
