It’s All So Familiar, Change Is Urgent – ‘Our season is in tatters’ I said that last year, the year before and the year before that in fact I think I’ve said that every year since 2008 where an Eduardo injury left ‘our season in tatters’, when will it stop? I have the answer…. when […]
Reasons to be hopeful? Let’s be realistic, (not that we weren’t anyway). 4th place has been the realistic aim since last month. Swansea away was always going to be a tough game, but it was a game that we needed to win and should have won. It was another clusterfuck, and we really needed those […]
After such a comfortable 50 minutes at home to Anderlecht on Tuesday night, it was difficult to see how Arsenal could capitulate so easily. The injury to Mikel Arteta had an impact on the Arsenal team, after that they looked lazy, disorganised and rather fatigued. We must credit Anderlecht where it’s due, but to be […]
Top Class? Not anymore. First let me start off by saying that this is not one of those reactive, self-pitying rants that you get in the immediate aftermath of a poor result. The issues that I will raise have been in existence for some time now and I believe that no-one, not even the most […]

You know what’s odd about these spectacular collapses of ours? They just don’t surprise me anymore, I’m not even remotely shocked by it and worse still I don’t think the team are. We have various areas of the field that are way below the standard expected and until these issues are resolved and we actually […]
I reckon it’s quite a long shot nowadays, however I was thinking about one specific question raised during last AGM about Arsène Wenger succession at the club. The person asked whether or not the club was already planning for life after Arsène Wenger, seemingly more and more plausible that the Alsatian signed his last contract […]
I would like to state up front that this week’s view is not an Arsenal blog, but a football blog. So please forgive me for my indulgence. I wish to take this opportunity to congratulate the Western Sydney Wanderers. I’m not a Wanderers fan (Central Coast Mariners have my allegiance) but WSW recent achievement is […]
