Not “If”, but “When” Nobody can say for sure when Wenger will leave Arsenal -except Arséne himself, of course – but the beleaguered manager has to go eventually. Surely? Most, it would seem, would prefer sooner rather than later. A bigger question might be: who is going to replace him? Events this summer indicate […]
It seems that Grant Xhaka is the current Arsenal first teamer facing the scrutiny of a ‘hard to please’ Gooner fanbase. This may well be largely because of what he isn’t rather than what he is. Whether Wenger sold us on an idea, other ‘knowledgeable’ fans on social media did or the media did, the […]
Okay, I did give it large pre-match in an article, and I take it back, largely. Yes, they were the better team. But power shift? Ha-ha…no. Last season, they finished above us, but then we won something. I strongly believe the same will occur this season. And they can cite who had the better season […]
If I were a neutral, or a fan of some mid-table PL club, who only casually follows Arsenal by means of checking the results, I would be astonished this morning. How can top-level club, seemingly fighting for the top 4, smash Palace 4-1 and then go down to Swansea inside 10 days? How can that […]
It’s the early kick-off for the North London derby today, as Arsenal play what will be their last league game for almost three weeks. Certainly a space oddity if you ask me, but it’s down to cup games in-between. It won’t be three weeks of rest for the Gunners of course, because Wenger’s men still […]
It’s safe to say that January was a hectic month for the Gunners. On the pitch, results were rather inconsistent as the North London club struggled to defeat teams like Nottingham Forest and Swansea, but they were able to defeat rivals, Chelsea, to reach the final of the Carabao Cup. Regarding the winter transfer window, […]
Upcoming matches against Tottenham conjure up a unique reaction, a simultaneous feeling of overwhelming nausea and excitement. The only thing I feel it is comparable to is first talking to a girl you “like” during your adolescent years–that perfect blend of anxiety shaped by the possibility of enduring both agony and ecstasy. It needs to […]
I hate Spurs. Hate them, hate them, hate them!! Since we’re playing our good friends from the Borough of Haringey very soon, I wish to convey my views on our “friends”, who now of course are renting the national stadium to play “home” games. Yes, every Gooner detests that lot. But these are my […]
Quick rant from GT Crew member Brad for your journey to work… If you ever needed evidence that there is a Pro-Spurs stance in our media, then you just need to check out today’s papers/social media ad Twitter. Respected (until now perhaps) Independent journalist, Jonathan Liew (and I thought he was definitely one of the […]
Well this week feels better than the last after a wonderful display against Everton that we hope gave is a taster of what is to come, with both our new signings in the starting eleven. Add to that the dynamic display from a fit again Aaron Ramsey the cup positively floweth over with renewed optimism […]
