THE FRUSTRATION OF MOTIVATION Positives, Needs and Hopes Sometimes a moment or a performance can sum up a whole season. Sometimes it’s a player. I’ve watched Aubameyang the last two games play with literally double the motivation that he normally does. I’ve felt excited by this, on the edge of my seat when he’s around […]

A former Arsenal player who went on to play for Valencia under Unai Emery and then Brazilian team Corinthians. Edu after, finishing his playing […]
Valencia 2-4 Arsenal (3-7 agg.) Europa League Semi-Final We’re in the final. El jefe could get FOUR Europa League titles. And we’ve shown our good friends that we too can reach a European final.

I believe the 2018/19 Premier League season is a sign of things to come… With one match to play and so many positions still in contention -including top of the log – it is a sign of the growing competitiveness in the top European football leagues, and in particular the English League, with its vast […]

Goodbye and thank you to Dat Guy Welbz For the last home game of the season , among all the goodbye tears for Aaron Ramsey and anger of the result versus Brighton, for Arsenal fans on Sunday there was also a small feeling of gratitude and sadness for another of our fine players. A it […]
An interesting piece by Victor Thompson yesterday on Aaron Ramsey “Interesting” because, in my view, he makes “good” points and some “no so good” points. Let me explain About Ramsey, Victor is spot on. An Arsenal player of immense stature, character and ability. He stands up there with the Greats for what he […]
Arsenal 1-1 Brighton and Hove Albion Premier League review Top four has gone, and given the recent state of affairs, this won’t be a very positive review. We have made some progress this season, both on and off the pitch, but we still hold some major issues that need rectification. Most of us […]
OVERTAKING or OVERTAKEN? Positives, Needs and Hopes I watched Watford today. I’ve been watching Everton recently. Wolves and Leicester I’ve seen even more often. Not just in action but on paper all these teams have at least half their first eleven that would get in ours. They just need more belief to play like a […]
