Arsenal Report [Labs]

We aim to be the most extensive source for Arsenal-related information, and we have hundreds of ideas for unique features to add to the site. To keep you updated, here is an overview of what’s coming in the near future. If you have any suggestions for new features, let us know in the comment section!

Overall Facelift

We won’t change the core design of the site, but we will improve the overall readability (both site and RSS feed) and give Arsenal Report a little facelift for the 2011/2012 season.

Player Statistics

Every first team player will have his own dedicated page on Arsenal Report, where you can follow his progress throughout the season. Things like pass completion, overall rating, tackles made, minutes played, everything you need to know.

Discussion Area

This feature is now live at www.arsenalreport.com/discussion/ – Join the discussion!

Interactive Pitch 2.0

The Interactive Pitch module will be upgraded to feature more player statistics, and will also be available as an interactive sandbox, for anyone who wants to present formations or tactical overviews on their own blogs.

Player Tweets

There are lots of Arsenal players on Twitter, but these tweets tends to get lost in the noise. We’ll present you with a nifty graphical tweet page that will have all Arsenal-related twitter feeds available.

Toggle Header

For those of you with small screens, mobile devices, iPads, etc…the Arsenal Report header might take up lots of real estate on the site, so there will soon be a toggle button to collapse the header, if you want to.

Illustrate Your Point

To keep a high level of discussion in the comment areas, this feature will let you draw arrows, draw lines and move icons around on a pitch canvas right below the comment form. You can then insert the image into your comment.

Quick Stats Sidebar

Our home page now features a sidebar with some quick interesting live stats, like highest rated player (according to WhoScored), goals and assists leader boards, etc.

More Authors

This summer we added Manny Keshwani and Matt Bonito to our team, so we’re currently not looking for any more writers.

Statistics Page v2

The stats page will get a facelift and some new features for the 2011-2012 season.

I would love to write for this wonderful site. I have sort of some experience but if you are looking for more writers, I’d love to contribute to this already brilliant site.

Regarding the Classic Reviews section, I’d like to see the 2001-02 double season reviewed; I understand it may be a little similar to the Invincibles season, though. Cheers.

Loving every page of the site, keep it up!

You guys did a wonderful job with the website last season. It was disappointing to not see your reports for the last few matches. However you all have more than made up with these lab ideas. Classic Reviews and Illustrate your point are really great ideas. They’ll allow a lot more knowledgeable fans to tell us about the game. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Thanks!

Unfortunately we weren’t able to cover the final few matches of last season because Ix had a family emergency and there were only two of us.

Now there’s more of us, and we plan to cover every single match; pre-season, FA Cup, Premier League, Champions League, Carling Cup.

Some of the things in the Labs will have to wait, unfortunately as we’re so busy. But we’ll have loads of other cool things from the start of next season, and when we have more time we can do things like Classic Reviews. =)

Hope everything’s turned out ok for Ix. How can we say a ‘no’ to more Arsenal analysis :D Looking forward to it.
