Today I am absolutely delighted to welcome back Antonia Hawken to Gunners Town. Antonia was a feature on the old ‘Welcome to the Gunners Town’ before the new management and wrote as ‘Gooner Girlfriend.’ Her last post was in January 2012 just after losing to Man United and can be read here. Delighted to have […]

Apparently we Looked (But We Did Not Find!) REALLY ARSENE??
“If we find the right player to strengthen the squad, we will buy” “We want to improve our team but we need to find players of better quality then those who are already here and that is difficult” This is Arsène Wenger, very easy guess. It’s much harder to get the exact date each of […]
Why can’t Arsenal solve the Midfield dilemma? One CM who sits, one box to box & one attacking. Easy?
It’s been a while since my last blog, far too long in all honesty but the hardest part about starting again is knowing where to start. I have many issues with this current Arsenal side and particularly with Arsene Wenger – but there is one area of the pitch that irks me more than most […]
Gunners Face Make-Or-Break November – A Gunners Town Preview
We posted last week that what looks like another frustrating EPL campaign should perhaps result in a makeover for the Gunners—and it’s fair to say things aren’t looking mightily encouraging at the moment. Fourteen points through the first nine matches is less than ideal for a club with the sort of talent Arsene Wenger is […]
Did Arsene drop the pizza not resigning Cesc?
Now I know many more esteemed bloggers than I have broached this topic, but I wanted to put a different slant on the subject. Following Saturday’s successful but ultimately disappointing performance, questions regarding our midfield have raised their ugly heads again. Arsene chose the odd but partially enforced formation of 4231, playing the much maligned […]
A Defensive Bully like Matic is not Arsenal’s answer! What is?
I like to clear things up so I’ll start by saying I’m not trying to defend Arsene as I’m still baffled at how he refused to bring in a top quality shield in the summer, especially since we seem to favour 4-1-4-1. However, the issue of Arsenal needing a defensive midfielder has been somewhat overrated […]
Arsene: It’s a NO from me – Exclusive from Tw.t Sport
Arsenal were plunged deeper into crisis last night, as their second poor performance in a week means they are now on the verge of being voted out of football by the public. Despite winning both games, the fact that football teams are now judged on performance, rather than results, the Gunners only chance of glory […]
Arsenal’s Arsene Wenger should head to the Scottish Highlands in search of complementing Alexis Sanchez’s rough and wild side
Hi everyone! I’m just back from a wonderful road trip in Scotland and I was glad I could find out that the country responsible for the birth, rise and success of Sir Alex Ferguson is also able to produce something wonderful, which is reassuring. I explored the Highlands from west to east and back, going […]
Arsenal NEED a makeover – Wenger and Mertesacker WON’T take Gunners forward BUT Sanchez and Bellerin will
Different Season, Same Result Well well well, here I am again. Despite looking forward to watching my team play after a boring International break I’m here wishing the break had gone on a little longer now after viewing that pathetic display. I have the utmost respect for Arsene Wenger and all he’s done for the […]
The Media Needs To Back Off Arsenal’s Dennis Bergkamp v2.0
Mesut Özil. What have you done to the media? One of the best players in world football only two years ago now called a total flop in the Premier League and Arsenal. One day you are called the best, the next you’re a total failure. Oh my what a generation. When Arsene Wenger signed Özil from Real […]
