Silly season is here….run, Gooners! At a time when online media throw names around to win the click-bait war, in a quite ridiculous crescendo that saw the Arsenal linked to Alexandr Kororin, Troy Deeney, Javier Hernandez and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in deals going from £3m up to £60m, I would like to concentrate on some transfers […]
Who is Mohamed Elneny? Barely known outside the Swiss Super League, the Egyptian midfielder is reportedly very likely to join the Arsenal as soon as the transfer window re-opens on January, 1st – with several media already talking about fee agreed, contract negotiations et cetera… Whether it is true or not – and I personally […]
I was reading “Invincible” by Amy Lawrence last night, I read the whole book in one go because I simply couldn’t stop turning one page after another: the feeling of pride was overwhelming, as was the amount of details given away by Amy. The importance of chemistry in the building of a team, the innovations […]
Santi Cazorla and Alexis Sanchez are gone for a while, there’s no apparent way to stop the unmatched growth of our list of injured players. We have recruited Shad Forsythe – arguably the best fitness expert in the world – and yet we have players going down with muscular injuries at a very frightening rate. One […]
Well, well…its back in our hands, as Mesut Özil told the world via Twitter. After one of the most underwhelming starts to a European campaign in recent years, we have now one chance to go beyond the group stage and get in the mix with Europe’s élite when the competition starts again. Before thinking about […]
This week’s column has been inspired by our latest signing, Victor Thompson. The frustration, disappointment and (perhaps) disillusionment that transpire from his words of yesterday are totally understandable and I am sure many fans are sharing his views. I don’t – at least not completely. I feel his frustration when I see some of our […]
The memorable win in the reverse fixture is still in our minds, isn’t it? A true masterpiece by the players and the manager allowed us to stop the unstoppable Bayern Munich and earned us a lifeline in this utterly complicated Champions League journey; the only problem is that we would need to produce another […]
WHAT A NIGHT OF FOOTBALL! The amazing and surprising (let me say that…) win against Bayern Munich has left a wonderful feeling, even hours and days after the final whistle. We have shown solidarity, maturity, composure and desire to see off one of the best teams in Europe and surely one of the favourites to […]
“I saw a headline saying Arsenal are flying the flag for Britain, I kind of wondered where that British involvement actually was when I looked at their team. It’s important that top clubs don’t lose sight of the fact that it’s the English Premier League and English players should be involved.” This infamous quote from […]
It’s been a while, Gooners! I’ve been away on holidays and then very, very busy when I got back to work (coincidence?), which hasn’t left me any time to write my usual, weekly column for this wonderful community. I am back and I couldn’t be happier. Although disappointed by the fact that I couldn’t really […]
