Week Twenty Three – Just Keep Winning, I have Enough Pants Things I won’t be talking about this week: Whether Mesut Özil is any good Whether there are too many blogs and podcasts Whether a young French kid we haven’t even signed yet will be the next Nicolas Anelka or the next Yaya Sanogo… You’ve […]

My last column for Gunnerstown was way back in November, for Dortmund away. The result of that match as I’m sure you will remember was an emphatic one for us, so I’m hoping that I can carry on winning ways with this preview too. These previews have and possibly will be sporadic as I’m currently […]
Arsene Wenger is known to be a miserly spender in the transfer market. He doesn’t believe in in a squad bought with money. He has always had an eye for talent and has made so many players from scratch and grow into big names. Cesc Fabregas, Aaron Ramsey, Jack Wilshere, Theo Walcott, Robin Van Persie, […]
Having been overshadowed and perhaps somewhat intimidated by Aaron Ramsey’s rise to prominence at Arsenal, Jack Wilshere is re-finding form at the perfect time. Not only is Wilshere doing things he’s done well before, but he’s also adding goals to his game, which seems to me to be the most effective catalyst for improvement. Jack’s […]

I am going to try to answer this question for you keeping in mind everything that my mind is capable of keeping. It’s January 16th, and we are already past the halfway mark in the Barclays Premier League. […]
Transfer season is in full swing. The men’s side may not have seen any action yet but Arsenal Women’s Football Club has seen more arrivals and departures over the last few weeks. Midfielder Katie Chapman and defender Gill Flaherty have both joined Chelsea Ladies, while Arsenal have signed Ajax defender Anouk Hoogendijk, re-signed England captain […]
Portrait of Arsenal Legend Thierry Henry by @invinciblog. Enjoy. Share? invinciblogI was eleven-and-a-half. My family had just emigrated from Rhodesia to South Africa. All the kids on my street supported United or Liverpool, because of their Southern African goalkeeper connections: Bailey for United and Grobbelaar for ‘Pool. Problem was: I didn’t like the colour red […]
Hello fellow Gooners. To celebrate this new year full of hope about glory and silverware, I’ve decided to talk about my favourite Arsenal books. For the last number of years (a decade I must say), I’ve read a lot about this club. I’ve usually found my reading real quality pieces, but sometimes I have been left […]
