Arsenal 2-0 West Brom: Gunners ride their luck to hold off plucky West Brom (Review)
Arsenal 2-0 WBA Emirates Stadium 25th September 2017 – Premier League A reasonable performance tonight from Arsenal. WBA had some good chances in the first-half, and looked pretty dangerous in parts. However, they crumbled as Arsenal’s quality was too much for them. Pulis had supposedly never won at Arsenal before, and he needs to wait […]

8 Games in Gunners will finally see the New 3 Musketeers, Lacazette, Ozil and Sanchez
Arsenal vs. WBA Premier League – 25th September 2017 Emirates Stadium So a prodigal son, as it were, of Mr. Kieran Gibbs may be returning. I have nothing against him, he did his part but in the end it wasn’t good enough. However, Pulis comes with his WBA team, and most likely will try to […]

I’m the poster boy for the “risk-averse.” When it comes to football, I rely on what my eyes tell me and then use respected opinions and/or data analysis to reinforce what I see. This piece will go against those ideals. I am already comfortable stating, after only […]
