Where does Aaron Ramsey fit in with this current Arsenal side? It is sort of heart-breaking in a way to find myself clutching at straws over a player whom we do all adore (everyone except Piers Morgan, perhaps), but unfortunately it is a situation we indeed find ourselves in. Our vast array of crafty midfield technicians […]

Wenger eyes adjustments to ‘Width’ and ‘Coordination in Midfield’ ahead of Palace
Hello fellow Gooners, it’s me…again! Double session this week, like the one some of our players would deserve after the horror show last Sunday. Alan Pardew and Crystal Palace are not far away, hence I tried to imagine how Arsène Wenger could spread his men across the pitch: it’s safe to say that some things […]
Time for fans to help Wenger with some tough decisions
Fancy yourself as a bit of a poll-dancer? Well – dance your way around this. Six questions*. One minute… GO!
Even Mid-table Teams Are Buying Stars In The Prem: No Place For Complacency Arsene
Good news guys, I’m not going to talk about the home loss to West Ham. It was ugly and unexpected but it’s past already, none of our moaning or brilliant words of advice will change the result. I’d rather talk about what’s up next: Crystal Palace away, Liverpool at home, Newcastle away, Stoke at home, […]
Keep Calm And Support The Arsenal or PANIC!!! (It’s Your Call)
A little perspective… Let’s get straight to the point: Sunday was disappointing, demoralising, and every other negative adjective you can think of. Seven days earlier, we played a game that defied the statistics, shamed the haters and lost some unfortunate souls a bit of money. How did we then lose to a team against whom […]
LET’S TRY AND PUT THIS GIROUD/WALCOTT DEBATE TO BED, SHALL WE?
I must say, I got invited to do a piece for Gunners Town nearly a month ago but I dawdled on it for a little while. Why? One does not simply wake up and write for Gunners Town- the piece has to be just right, about the right topic. I had a myriad of ideas, […]
5 Questions to arise from Premier League Game Week 1
Does Pre-season mean anything? You can beat everyone who’s put in front of you during pre-season, even your biggest rivals (eventually) but if you believe the hype and don’t turn up at the big show, it means nothing !! You can beat everyone who’s put in front of you during pre-season, even your biggest rivals […]
Come on Gunners – There is No ‘I’ in Team so don’t blame individuals
It’s interesting how, considering football is a team sport, we tend to idolize or castigate individuals on a regular basis. Why is that? This thought and question entered my mind during pre-season when Arsenal Twitter went gaga over a certain Jeff Rene-Adelaide and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. I would have written about this earlier but at that […]
Arsenal 0-2 West Ham: expensive Cech proves costly…
As the game petered out towards its inevitable conclusion, I was fuming. I couldn’t comprehend what was happening. I was sitting in an empty sports bar in Greece in the middle of nowhere in smoldering heat and wished dearly I hadn’t made it to the game. Arsenal produced a shambles of a performance. During the […]
