Arsenal FC September Review: A Promising Start to the Season?

September 2025 has reminded Arsenal supporters why football at the Emirates is never short of drama. From late goals to injury setbacks, the month has delivered a little bit of everything – and plenty of reasons for fans to believe this season could still hold something special.

Resilience Under Pressure

The standout moment came in the 1-1 draw against Manchester City. It looked like Arsenal were heading for defeat until Gabriel Martinelli struck in injury time, latching onto a clever assist from Eze.

That never-say-die mentality has been a theme throughout the month, with Arsenal finding ways to grind out results despite early-season hurdles.

September has also tested the squad’s depth. Noni Madueke limped off with a knee issue against City and faces several weeks on the sidelines. Piero Hincapié was unavailable with fitness concerns, while Kai Havertz and captain Martin Ødegaard are both working their way back from longer-term problems.

For manager Mikel Arteta, this has meant leaning on younger and less-experienced players. It hasn’t been smooth sailing, but the squad’s adaptability and hunger to prove themselves have kept them in the mix.

Looking Ahead to October

The fixtures don’t get any easier. October promises big Premier League clashes and the return of European nights at the Emirates. With the squad stretched, every performance matters – and fans will be eager to see who steps up in the absence of key names.

If September was about resilience, October will be about consistency. Arsenal remain in touching distance of the leaders, and their ability to turn adversity into opportunity will shape the months ahead.
