Squad on ‘High’ – Arsenal news round-up – 7th Dec. 2018
News round-up – 7th December 2018 Guendouzi or Xhaka Guendouzi was excellent in our 2-2 draw at Old Trafford. I feel he offers more to the team than Xhaka. Now, this isn’t to knock Xhaka. I find he has enhanced a lot this season, as our improved midfield balance is aiding […]
Can Emery do what Wenger struggled to do: outsmart Mourinho? Manchester United vs. Arsenal preview
Manchester United vs. Arsenal preview After the glorious win vs. the Scum, we have another rival to play. This time, it’s Manchester United, and a certain Mr. Mourinho, with whom we have an interesting history. Jose hasn’t had the best of times this season.

Arsenal gobbles lucky cherries to go 17 undefeated [AFC Bournemouth 1-2 Arsenal]
We got a good win at Bournemouth, and my match review prediction was right. But I’m not here to just big myself up. Bournemouth started the game well and had an offside goal ruled out, but the TV cameras showed that it was not offside after all. We possibly got lucky there, but Bournemouth also […]
