I asked a few of the Gunners Town writers to give me their Top 6 predictions for the Premier League season 18/19. Obviously the transfer window is still open and things could change – but the one thing about the Premier League is that things are ALWAYS changing:. injuries, meltdowns, surprise losses… It’s a rollercoaster […]
It’s fair to say that Aaron Ramsey has divided Gooner opinion since he joined Arsenal from Cardiff as a 17-year-old in 2008. Snatched from beneath Sir Alex’s nose in one of Wenger’s better deals, Ramsey seemed an exciting young prospect. Axed down in an horrific tackle by Stoke orc, Ryan Shawcross – it looked like […]
In the few months since he left us I have had time to reflect On the legacy of a man that earned all of our respect With his mission to make football art I believe he even out did The style and free flowing fair of 1960s Real Madrid This man gave us football the […]
It’s been quite a journey, this Gooner journey through the Kubler-Ross stages of GRIEF.

Believe it or not, there are a few players in the Arsenal squad who divide opinion: some whose weekly performances don’t seem to merit their place in the Arsenal First Team starting line-up. Some might argue that ALL ELEVEN players who regularly start for the Gunners should be shown more bench-time, from Cech – in […]
After a disappointing Premier League game week for Arsene Wenger and his players, there is one ray of light. Exclusive EA SPORTS data highlights there is an unexpected record holder in the Frenchman’s ranks, one who is certainly not regularly credited for his passing displays. Contrary to what might be expected, the player who holds […]
At present, we are lying 6th in the Premier League table with 45 points, 8 points behind Chelsea and 12 points behind Tottenham in 4th. We are a remarkable 30 points behind league leaders Manchester City, who put us to the sword for the second time in a week at the Emirates last night, having […]
