Arsenal’s numerous unsuccessful attempts to bring in a world class striker has been well documented in recent times, and rightly so. Once again, this ‘weary-tale’ has begun to take centre stage this summer, with a section of the fan base already bracing themselves for what has now become a customary ‘market impossible’ mission at the […]
Fever Pitch by Nick Hornby is by far one of the best books I’ve ever read about football, and one of its many interesting aspects is the writer’s willingness to lay bare his obsession and discuss what it really means to be a fan. Hornby talks about how Arsenal helped him deal with the divorce of […]
So, the semi-finals are behind us. Needless to say I’m heartbroken Wales couldn’t beat Portugal, however the other semi-final was a win-win situation, seeing as there were Gunners involved on either side. Let’s shoot to the analysis of what happened then. Portugal 2-0 Wales Without the suspended Ben Davies and Aaron Ramsey Chris Coleman’s side […]
And the best team at the Euros are… What a great Euros it has been for Arsenal players. What I will argue here is that Arsenal as a club have had the best performing players at the tournament as a whole. With Giroud scoring three goals and helping France get themselves to the final, surely […]
Arsene and his transfers- Part Un January 31st, 2016. It was a misty morning as Arsene drove through London on his way to meeting the newest signing of the transfer window. It had been a hard couple of days since the window opened, he regularly checked Twitter on his secret account regularly. @LondonisRed96 was not […]
Aaron Ramsey had a blinder at Euro 2016. Leading Wales to an unexpected semi-final (albeit one he was unfortunately suspended from) and standing out in every match he played in. He ended with stats of 5 appearances 4 assists and 1 goal, in my eyes he’s been the best Arsenal player at the tournament (Koscielny […]
Our dear Dave (@Goonerdave66) recently turned 50 (Happy Birthday!) and decided to celebrate with the 1,579,698,741,258th tweet about how Arsène Wenger should turn to a 4-3-1-2 formation to take the best out of Alexis Sánchez, Olivier Giroud, our plethora of anarchist central midfielders and our full backs. Although personally never a fan of such system, […]
Howdy. So the quarter-finals of the European championship in France are behind us and I find myself at something of a crossroads, as only 2 out of 4 were actually entertaining. Poland vs Portugal was a complete drag, while the much-anticipated Germany vs Italy may have a tactical masterclass from Lowe, Conte, or both, but […]
We’re a bit insular in our country. What’s the difference between Cameron & Hodgson? One led a failed campaign to stay in Europe and then resigned, the other…..oh!!!! So there you have it, England are out of Europe twice in four days and Hodgson joins Cameron in deserting a sinking ship. Neither had a plan […]
