Three goals in three minutes, that was wonderful. Mesut Özil pulling a Mesutözilesque performance was wonderful, too. Also, Danny Welbeck opening his Arsenal account was wonderful. And a clean sheet, wonderful! I still have a bad taste in mouth, though. A very light one, but it’s here and there’s nothing a can do about it. […]
Oi Gooners! I’m still thinking about the game against Manchester City, I’m still wondering how on Earth we were one down at half time and I’m still asking myself who intervened to ensure we would hold on in those painful final minutes. It was a great match, wasn’t it? Insane pace, unbelievable commitments, awesome pressure […]
The news – or alleged news, to be more accurate – broke a couple of days after Arsenal’s announcement about Danny Welbeck: Arsène Wenger was not aware of the signing of the English forward on permanent basis. Would you believe it? I don’t. Arsène Wenger, the ultimate deus-ex-machina of the Arsenal Football Club wasn’t informed […]
Alexis Sanchez. Mathieu Débuchy. David Ospina. Calum Chambers. Danny Welbeck. And people still brand this transfer window as terrible. I get the point that we should have added a defender in order to complete the unit, is that enough to label Arsène Wenger’s job as horrible? I don’t know what you think about it but I haven’t experienced such an […]
OH MY! Olivier Giroud is out for three months, we are doomed! Let’s ignore the fact that a large chunk of Arsenal supporters called him with some adorable names since the beginning of the season, asking Arsène Wenger to buy any kind of striker to replace that useless guy (I’m being very polite here), and […]
Is Arsène Wenger changing Arsenal formation again? No, he’s not. Perhaps he is doing it…nah, it’s a bluff. Or not? I’m lost! Despite not being a fan of tactical analysis, I would like to enter the debate about how Arsène Wenger is making/should make/will make his choice in terms of formation. It’s quite an interesting […]
He is our new captain and he looks massively honoured and proud about it, he said it himself immediately after lifting the Community Shield at Wembley. Let’s give Mikel Arteta a break, gentlemen – can we? He’s not a powerhouse, he will never be Patrick Vieira or Gilberto Silva but he’s never failed to give his […]
What game are you playing, Mr. Usmanov? Alisher Usmanov, May 2013: “This team has no superstar and he (Stan Kroenke) doesn’t show any wish to create a winning team and (he) would probably be happy with another third or fourth place finish.” Alisher Usmanov, August 2014: “I think we begin a new era for Arsenal […]
WE WANT A DEFENSIVE MIDFIELDER! Do we? Do you? Good day Gooners, I would like to hear from you about another frequent topic, our hunt for a defensive midfielder to protect our defensive line and allow our unbelievable creative force to flourish in the last 40 yards. Listening to and reading opinions, I’ve learned the […]
