This is part II of the Walcott Conundrum article that began earlier today here from @Lordhillwood. Part 1 – Press Here Looking at goal ratio per game only reveals part of the story, we need to look at key aspects of TW’s game over 3-4 seasons to see how he has developed (if at all) […]

Before reading this article might I ask that you please take off your red and white spectacles and try to be objective rather than allow your loyalty to the club and our players to cloud your view. Weighing up a conundrum is never easy, especially when so many variables apply. In the case of a […]
Is there a future for Santi in the holding role?
After a sensational performance from Santi Cazorla sitting deeper in midfield on the weekend it’s fair to say he looked quite accomplished in that role and not for the first time this season; Galatasaray at home springs to mind. With Mesut Ozil best utilised in the No. 10 role there really could be a great […]
Racism and bankruptcy in Italian football
Good Wednesday my dears, this week I’d like to talk about the current state of Italian football and especially the calamitous situation FC Parma find themselves into. The Club once challenging us for the Cup Winners’ Cup in Copenhagen. – and my hometown Club, by the way – is now on the verge of a […]
The skys the limit with Alexis Cazorzil
When you’ve got Alexis Carzozil, anything is achievable? With injuries & alike abound, have The Arsenal stumbled upon the money shot. I, like many, assumed that with the signing of Alexis & Ozil, the wall was adorned with the scribbles of Cazorla’s demise. And to be fair, after last season many would have agreed with […]
SuperJack To The Rescue
With Jack Wilshere now back in full training and rumoured to be involved in the squad tomorrow I am particularly pleased to hear this news. With Ramsey and Arteta out it leaves a gaping hole for us in the deep-lying role beside the defensive midfielder. We have recently gone with Rosicky & Cazorla in the […]
Ozil and Walcott – The Exciting combination we have been waiting for?
One of my bad habits is always reflecting on the past, in relation to what’s going on in the present and what could happen in the future. It sometimes proves to be more complex to understand, but in most cases helps me to connect the dots. We’ve had dozens of eras in Arsene Wenger’s time […]
I want to win the FA Cup, screw 4th place – We are THE ARSENAL!
Captain’s Log star-date 1.1.7.9 point 27. I’ve been thinking, everything on the ship is recycled. Everything. Seriously…everything. So when I go to the space-toilet… Spurs Rather than talk about the Spurs game directly I want to talk about a question that the loss raised. It’s not a new question but it’s an important one. I’ll […]
Ozil ready to step back onto centre stage with Alexis out
Saturday’s North London derby defeat aside, the last few weeks have been positive for the Gunners, who again look good value for a Champions League place.Victories over Stoke, Villa, Manchester City and Leicester City have enabled Arsene Wenger’s men to climb back into the top four. But the most recent 2-1 win over Leicester appears […]
The Best No. 10 On The Planet Is Nearing His Best
You sold Bale and we signed Mesut Ozil, Mesut Ozil, Mesut f***ing Ozil!! Honestly having been a huge fan of his before I even thought it was possible he could play for my club, I still rub my eyes in disbelief that he sports the mighty red kit of Arsenal! What a player he […]
