The2006–07 season wasArsenal Football Club's 15th season in thePremier League and their 81st consecutive season in the top flight of English football.[1][2] It was the first season in which home matches were played at the over-60,000 capacityEmirates Stadium; the club's former groundHighbury was to be redeveloped as aresidential development. Arsenal ended theirPremier League campaign in fourth, level on points with third-placedLiverpool but with a marginally lower goal difference. In theLeague Cup, a competition which offered managerArsène Wenger the chance to play his younger players, Arsenal reached the final but lost to a relatively experiencedChelsea side. The defeat was followed by exits in theFA Cup toBlackburn Rovers and in theUEFA Champions League toPSV Eindhoven.

Twenty-eight players represented Arsenal in four competitions and there were 18 goalscorers. Arsenal's top goalscorer wasRobin van Persie, who scored 13 goals in 31 appearances.

Kit information

[edit]

All of the new Arsenal kit this season was featured with new sponsor,Fly Emirates. Replaced with previous sponsor,O2.

  • Home: The new home kit returned to a solid iconic Arsenal red shirt with white sleeves, white shorts and white socks, the colours Arsenal are well known for, after thelast season saw a redcurrant 'anniversary' kit in final season atHighbury. The new features added to the home kit was a red band appearing on the sleeves and socks, while the golden trimmings appeared on the side of the shirt. The home was usually worn with white socks, however red socks were worn in some away games in order to prevent confusion.
  • Away: The yellow and dark grey away kit fromlast season was unchanged, albeit with new sponsor.
  • Keeper: The goalkeeper kit were based on Nike's Harlequin template, which was basically a strip split into subtle halves in two tones of one colour. The main kit was green, but the black and yellow kit were available should they be required.

Premier League

[edit]
Main article:2006–07 FA Premier League

August–October

[edit]

Arsenal's league season began with their first-ever match at the newEmirates Stadium, against anAston Villa side who had struggled with relegation threats theprevious season. However, the Gunners` performance did not match the pre-game expectations; the sides drew 1-1,Gilberto Silva scoring a late equaliser afterOlof Mellberg put Villa ahead; a bright spark for Arsenal was youngsterTheo Walcott, who had helped create the goal with a fine run after making his debut as a substitute.[3]The Gunners then disappointingly lost 1–0 toManchester City to aJoey Barton penalty just before the break, having dominated the match and spurned numerous chances.[4]

The Gunners then hostedMiddlesbrough in their second league match at the Emirates, and once again were forced to come from behind in a strangely similar game to the Villa one;James Morrison gave Boro the lead, beforeThierry Henry opened his account for the season from the penalty spot to salvage a point for Arsenal.[5]

The Gunners finally registed their first win of the season, claiming a magnificent 1–0 victory atOld Trafford against to-be championsManchester United, thanks to a lateEmmanuel Adebayor goal and some heroic defending, including a stunning fingertip save fromJens Lehmann against United strikerOle Gunnar Solskjaer.[6] This was followed by a first-ever league win at the Emirates; second-half goals fromWilliam Gallas andThierry Henry either side of aPhil Jagielka own goal gave the Gunners a comfortable 3–0 victory overSheffield United. They then were forced to come from behind away toCharlton Athletic; however aRobin van Persie double, including a stunning edge-of-the box flying volley, gave the Gunners a 2–1 victory to close out the month in eighth position.[7]October began with a fine 3–0 win overWatford, Arsenal's second in a row by that scoreline at the Emirates. An own goal fromJordan Stewart and strikes from Henry andEmmanuel Adebayor took the Gunners to fifth position in the league.[8] The Gunners managed to crack the top four for the first time that season thanks to a convincing 4-0 trouncing of Premier League newboysReading at theMadejski Stadium. Two for Henry, including one from the spot, and further goals forAlexander Hleb andRobin van Persie gave the Gunners a convincing victory.[9] The Gunners then concluded October with more silly dropped points at the Emirates, van Persie's free-kick not enough as the Gunners drew 1–1 withEverton.[10]

November–February

[edit]

Overall November was a poor month for Arsenal, with just one win and one draw in the five games played. A late goal fromMarlon Harewood saw the Gunners sloppily lose 1–0 atWest Ham United,[11] before goals fromKolo Toure,William Gallas andMathieu Flamini gave the Gunners a stunning 3–0 victory againstLiverpool.[12] However, a draw withNewcastle at the Emirates, only salvaged byThierry Henry's late free-kick,[13] was followed by back to back defeats atBolton andFulham by scorelines of 3-1 and 2-1 respectively, withGilberto Silva scoring at Bolton[14] and Robin van Persie inCraven Cottage.[15]December began with the first-evernorth London derby at the Emirates Stadium againstTottenham Hotspur, which was decided ultimately by two controversial penalty calls from refereeGraham Poll; both were converted byGilberto Silva either side of half-time to add toEmmanuel Adebayor's opener as Arsenal won 3–0.[16] Another London derby followed, this time atStamford Bridge against Premier League title-holdersChelsea, where a hotly-contested derby ended 1-1 afterMichael Essien responded toMathieu Flamini's strike late in the match.[17] The Gunners then claimed a dramatic late win atWigan thanks to Adebayor to move third in the table,[18] before staging a two-goal comeback to draw 2–2 withPortsmouth at the Emirates with Adebayor and stand-in captain Silva on the scoresheet.[19] The Gunners then concluded the first half of the season with a 6-2 dismantling ofBlackburn Rovers at the Emirates, claiming their biggest win at the new venue to date.Shabani Nonda actually put Blackburn in front with a penalty just three minutes in, but goals from Gilberto Silva, Alexander Hleb and a penalty from Adebayor gave Arsenal a 3–1 lead before half an hour was up. Nonda pulled one back for Blackburn with his second in the second half, but three goals in the last eight minutes through a brace from van Persie and a third of the season for Mathieu Flamini sealed a big victory.[20] Van Persie scored a late winner atWatford afterTommy Smith had responded to Gilberto Silva's opener, taking the Gunners up to third in the table. However, they ended the year in fifth after a dramatic 1–0 loss at newly promoted and relegation-doomedSheffield United, with Blades defenderPhil Jagielka filling in goals for half an hour,[21] as Arsenal concluded the year with an embarrassing defeat. Arsenal responded to the loss atBramall Lane with a thumping win over relegation-doomedCharlton Athletic to start the year-a rare goal forJustin Hoyte, a penalty forThierry Henry and a brace, including one penalty, forRobin van Persie handed the Gunners a 4–0 win to start the year.[22] Captain Henry was particularly impressive on his return from injury after 34 days, delivering an assist as well as his goal and winning the second penalty. He then netted a fine curling effort and delivered another assist in a 2–0 win at Blackburn Rovers,[23] before a big clash at home toManchester United-afterWayne Rooney gave United the lead, Henry set up van Persie for an equaliser before heading in a 93rd-minute winner, in what was the club's 200th meeting with United to date.[24]Henry was again the hero, netting a late equaliser atMiddlesbrough afterYakubu's penalty had put Boro ahead in a 1–1 draw.[25] An own goal fromFritz Hall and a first Premier League goal forTomas Rosicky in the last ten minutes earned the Gunners a dramatic 2–1 victory over Wigan, closing out the month in fourth place.[26]

March–May

[edit]

March began with a penalty from Gilberto Silva and a first league goal for the Gunners fromJulio Baptista giving them a 2–1 win against Reading. This was followed by a narrow 1-0 success at Aston Villa, thanks to an earlyAbou Diaby strike, as Arsenal rose to third position.[27] They consolidated this place despite performing poorly in a 1–0 defeat at Everton.[28] Returning toMerseyside nearly a fortnight later, Arsenal were crushed 4-1 by Liverpool, who were inspired byPeter Crouch, who netted a "perfect" hat-trick of left foot, right foot and head; William Gallas scored Arsenal's consolation as they slipped to fourth in the table.[29]A string of fine saves from visiting goalkeeper Robert Green, as well as many missed chances, saw the Gunners beaten 1–0 at the Emirates against West Ham United-their first defeat at the venue.[30] Another lacklustre display saw them draw 0–0 at Newcastle[31] before returning to winning ways against Bolton; after falling behind toNicolas Anelka's goal,Tomas Rosicky andCesc Fabregas struck as the Gunners turned it around to win it 2–1 against the ten-men Trotters.[32] Fabregas and Rosicky were both again on the scoresheet, alongsideJulio Baptista, as they beatManchester City 3–1 at the Emirates.[33] In a big north London derby atWhite Hart Lane, Arsenal fell behind half an hour in before turning it around with Kolo Toure and Emmanuel Adebayor; however they were denied a win thanks to a lateJermaine Jenas equaliser.[34] They concluded the month with a league match against strugglingFulham at the Emirates; after Julio Baptista gave the Gunners an early lead, Fulham pegged them back with twelve minutes left before a late strike from Adebayor and a penalty from Gilberto Silva gave the Gunners a 3–1 win.[35] The Gunners began May with aLondon derby at the Emirates against Chelsea. The champions needed a victory to take their title race with Manchester United to the final day, but a penalty from Gilberto Silva and a red card fromKhalid Boulahrouz had them trailing by a goal and a man at the break. Despite eventually drawing the match 1-1, they lost the league to United, whilst Arsenal stayed fourth.[36] The Gunners concluded their season atPortsmouth, drawing 0–0 to finish the season in fourth position.[37]

Having finished fourth in thePremier League the previous season, Arsenal entered theChampions League at the third qualifying round stage, and were duly drawn against CroatiansDinamo Zagreb. In the first leg inZagreb, the home side held Arsenal off for over an hour before two goals in a minute forCesc Fabregas andRobin van Persie established a 2–0 lead for Arsenal; Fabregas sealed his brace late on as Arsenal took a convincing lead to London. Despite falling behind to a goal after 12 minutes from future Arsenal strikerEduardo, late goals from InvincibleFreddie Ljungberg andMathieu Flamini gave the Gunners their first win at theEmirates and a 5-1 aggregate victory. Arsenal were drawn in Group G, alongside Portuguese championsPorto, German outfitHamburg and RussiansCSKA Moscow. A stunning second-half goal fromTomas Rosicky sealed three points in Hamburg before goals fromThierry Henry andAlexander Hleb gave them a 2–0 win over Porto. A disappointing set of results against CSKA Moscow followed; Arsenal lost 1–0 in Russia before being held to a goalless draw at the Emirates, however they bounced back with a 3–1 win over Hamburg before sealing top spot in the group through a goalless draw at Porto. As a seeded side, Arsenal got what was considered a favourable round-of-16 draw against Dutch sidePSV Eindhoven, but crashed out 2–1 on aggregate, with a 1–1 draw at the Emirates failing to make up for a poor 1–0 defeat in theNetherlands.

Closing stages of Arsenal's second leg match against Tottenham Hotspur at the Emirates Stadium.

Liverpool were Arsenal's opponent in the fifth round. The match, scheduled on 19 December 2006 at Anfield, was postponed by refereeMartin Atkinson because of heavy fog.[40] Atkinson's decision infuriated the managers of both clubs, withRafael Benítez commenting: "There were a lot of people looking forward to the game and it's really difficult to explain."[41] The tie was rescheduled for 9 January 2007 and on the night Arsenal took the lead when Aliadière scored in the 27th minute.Robbie Fowler equalised for Liverpool six minutes later. Later, two goals from Baptista and goal fromAlex Song put Arsenal 4–1 ahead at half time. In the second half, Baptista completed his hat-trick; althoughSteven Gerrard andSami Hyypiä scored to close the scoreline gap for Liverpool, Baptista added his fourth goal of the match in the 84th minute. The final score was 6–3, Liverpool's heaviest defeat at Anfield in 76 years.[42] In his match report forThe Guardian, Taylor praised Arsenal's reserve team and summarised, "The difference between the two teams was immense. Arsenal played with flair and purpose; Liverpool were dishevelled and short of leadership."[43]

Pre-match presentation

Tottenham Hotspur faced Arsenal in the semi-final which was played over two legs. A goal fromDimitar Berbatov gave Tottenham the lead in the 12th minute and they extended their advantage after Baptista inadvertently kicked the ball into his own goal. Baptista, however, made amends in the second half, scoring twice in the space of 13 minutes to level the score at 2–2.[44] The second leg at the Emirates Stadium saw Arsenal dominate proceedings, but only took the lead in the 77th minute when Adebayor scored.Mido equalised for Tottenham, which took the match into extra time because of theaway goals rule. Aliadière's goal in the 105th minute restored Arsenal's lead and an own goal scored byPascal Chimbonda ensured the home team progressed to the final, winning 3–1 after extra time and 5–3 on aggregate.[45]

Arsenal played Chelsea in the final at theMillennium Stadium on 25 February 2007. Wenger continued his policy of naming a young team, which took the lead in the 12th minute when Walcott converted his chance.[46] Chelsea strikerDidier Drogba equalised and scored in the 84th minute to earn his side victory. A fracas occurred between the Arsenal and Chelsea players occurred during stoppage time, resulting in Touré and Adebayor getting shown a red card each.[46] Wenger later apologised for his players' conduct, but was charged £2,500 for accusing the linesman of lying in his account of Adebayor's actions.[47][48] Both clubs were fined £100,000 each byThe Football Association for their inability to control their players and Eboué was retrospectively charged with violent conduct for strikingWayne Bridge.[49]
