The atmosphere around the Arsenal this season has been a strange one, with the current contract issues facing our two biggest players and with more to come in on their deals. It has been a mixed bag for both when they have been played and more so for Alexis Sanchez who clearly looks like he […]
This article was a comment on this morning’s piece on Arsenal trying a 352 with a partner for Lacazette. Dave suggested Giroud or Welbeck but an old Gunners Town writer got in touch suggesting an interesting alternative. I agree with pretty much all about the formation and midfield, but ideally we would keep Ozil who could still […]
During a slow international weekend break, Arsenal Fan TV tweeted: “Wilfried Zaha is being lined up for a move to Arsenal. Is he good enough to replace Sanchez?” Or words to that effect. It would be wrong to say responses to the tweet were unanimously negative, but overall it appeared as if Zaha wouldn’t be […]
I like Cech, but this season he has been pretty poor. As of now (the international break), he has 4 Premier League clean sheets, which is not that far behind Courtois, Lloris, or de Gea as other top six team keepers. He, of course, holds the Premier League all-time clean sheet record, and the joint […]
The debate on Arsenal’s contract rebels will rumble on and as long as it does it will only exacerbate the division of opinions on Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez. Neither performed at anywhere near the levels we know they are capable of last time out at the Eithad. The venue for their understated (being polite) […]
Am I mad not to fear Tottenham??? This is kind of like a preview-preview, so to speak. It’s still a little while before we play that lot, but as a Gooner I detest that lot with a passion. So I’m relaying something I’ve been thinking of late. For now, I want to ask this. Am […]
The AAA Pochettino- “With the project we have here and the philosophy and everything, it is completely different today, the Premier League. When you compare with the other teams that compete with us, for me it is a very successful period.” The media- Oooooohhhhhh, Pochettino is an intelligent manager and the Sp*ds are a success. […]
This submission came in a week after the game but was written in a train back to Scotland after our loss at the Etihad At the time of writing we are on the train somewhere in the midst of “up north”, in darkness, on the way back to Scotland where I live as an exiled […]
Much has been written about our defeat against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium, the way we surrendered to Pep Guardiola’s men and the team picked-up by Arsène Wenger; of course, it looked very odd to see Alexandre Lacazette benched in favour of Alex Iwobi and even more bizarre to see Francis Coquelin used as […]
Arsenal supporters of all ages and from all over the world are keenly awaiting the general release of ’89 The Film’. The new movie, inspired by the unique climax to the 1988/89 Division One season, that saw The Gunners, having seemingly thrown the title away, travel to Anfield for the last match of the season […]
