I was wondering if you guys could recommend good bloggers and websites that cover Arsenal the best. Also, if you can let me know of the best people to follow on twitter when it comes to Arsenal and the EPL. Thank you guys!
The Tuesday club Arseblog Those are the only I listen/read regularly. The others I find occasionally annoying. You can find all of the popular ones though through those
Arseblog is good. John Cross and Amy Lawrence are journos who do a consistently good job of covering Arsenal. Jamie Sanderson is a decent twitter add, even though he's a twat. He knows stuff

John Cross is good, but he does the normal tabloid bullshit a lot. Amy Lawrence is good. Paul Kelso is good too, but he's not Arsenal specific. Philippe Auclair and Julien Laurens are both French journalists that cover England and talk about Arsenal with some regularity, but again - not Arsenal specific and with a huge bias towards French players and news (obviously). For blogs, I don't read many like I said. I'll read through Arseblog on my phone if I have a few minutes to kill during the day. The only other one that comes to mind is le-grove, but I don't read it unless I get linked to it or something. Swiss Ramble is worth a read. He's an Arsenal fan, but writes about financial stuff for a bunch of different teams. Not everyone's thing though. Tim Payton is the current head of the AST, and is worth a follow on twitter if you're on. You can find all of the journalists/blogs mentioned above on twitter too, and then use them to find others. If you get away from the journalists and into the blogs and associated characters, be prepared for a lot of whining and bullshit. Arsenalist.com is good for watching press conferences and highlights and what not (although last year the videos normally got taken down for copyrights within a few days...) The Tuesday Club is a podcast by Alan Davies and friends. It's normally excellent. That's what I can of think of off the top of my head.
Blogs: Arseblog Goonerholic A cultured left foot Arse2mouse Best match reviews used to be Goodplaya but he seldom posts anymore. 7am kickoff - good american perspective.
Yeah, I read Arseblog, but I'll add my sadness to InTheSun's: Goodplaya seems to have moved onto other things....
Pound for pound, Jamie Sanderson on Twitter is the best IMHO. That guy cares about Arsenal and has matured a ton over the years. Has many sources inside the club it appears. One of the few bloggers covering AFC that then crossed over and went on to become a journo. Young Guns is a must read if you really want to hang deep with the crowds in the know.
One of the inadvertantly funny blog posts I've read in a while from 8.28.2012's Le Grove blog: http://le-grove.co.uk/ The story leads off with this pic: with the caption: Gazidis Will be on this: All Week Outdated phone for an outdated Chief Executive....
