Our German number 10 Mesut Ozil made some interesting comments in The Athletic lately. Whilst interviewed by prominent football journalist David Ornstein, he stated that he isn’t going to leave this summer, and wants to stay at Arsenal. He also said that he won’t be made a scapegoat and that he had reservations […]
Just four days after our impressive performance and victory against Chelsea in the FA Cup Final, news broke that Arsenal are making 55 employees redundant, due to the financial strain caused by the coronavirus pandemic with star scout and head of recruitment – Francis Cagigao – being the most high profile casualty. Arsenal’s head of […]
343 might not be the formation we like but it is the formation we need! The imminent arrival of Willian from Chelsea sparkled lots of debates about his age profile, role, suitability, wages, resale value and Gooners all over the world had lots of different opinions about it.There seems to be one thing everyone agreed […]
There appears to be a consensus in the appraisal of Nicolas Pepe’s first season as an Arsenal player. For most of the club’s fanbase, eight goals and 10 assists represents a creditable return for a wide player, and there is little doubt more is in the offing next season.

Previously, our Hale End graduate was renowned for lacking consistency when he had opportunities to cement a regular spot in the starting eleven. But under our exciting, young Spanish coach, he is another player who has raised his levels. If we analyse him under Arteta, there haven’t been many games where he has put in below […]

[…]
How far behind our top four rivals are we? Before we get into how far behind our top 4 rivals we are, we must first establish who they are likely to be next season. It would be too simplistic to say Liverpool, City, United and Chelsea. Liverpool and City won’t be direct rivals for some […]
Arsenal’s season may have ended but for two of their fellow Premier League clubs, Wolves and Manchester United, their campaigns are still ongoing in European competition. With both clubs in the late stages of the Europa League, I will be explaining why it is important from an Arsenal perspective that neither club lifts the […]
Chelsea’s season came to an end last night as they lost 4-1 to Bayern Munich in the Champions League. 7-1 on aggregate. After scrolling through hilarious memes suggested Frank Lampard’s side change their new shirt sponsors from 3 to 7-Up my thoughts quickly turned to Willian. If reports are to be believed the Brazilian is […]
It might seem strange to think now, but Neal Maupay may have been the most important man in Arsenal’s 2019/20 season. Suspend your outrage for a second and think back to June the 20th and the awful 2-1 loss to Brighton. At the time Maupay went careered deliberately into Bernd Leno, causing him to fall […]
