Chelsea 0-0 Arsenal Carabao Cup Semi-Final Leg 1 Stamford Bridge • January 10, 2018 Where did this come from? My latest match reviews have been pretty morose. Well, it’s pretty much on point, considering we’ve played the same bad stuff, and hit new lows. But today, we did OK. Chelsea had a stronger team out […]
Nottingham Forest 4-2 Arsenal FA Cup 3rd Round January 7th 2018 This is a new low. Forest have tradition, and have done things we haven’t (European Cup). But then we allowed them to bully us, press us, and dominate our defence. Online betting sites such as 888Sport and virtually the whole footballing world had Arsenal […]
Arsenal 2-2 Chelsea Emirates Stadium, London January 4th, 2018 The good Arsenal turned up today, and not the bad one that showed up at West Ham, Southampton, or West Brom. I genuinely suspected it might, and I tweeted such pre-match. I don’t know, maybe it was a hunch, but a correct one nonetheless. Chelsea look […]
WBA 1-1 Arsenal Not the best of performances last night. And a certain Mr. Dean did rob us. But in honesty, that’s not what’s bothering me. What IS bothering is another sideways shuffle and impotent performance in the final third. We had more than enough, in terms of personnel, to win that game. It’s just […]
Palace 2-3 Arsenal This was good. Yes, we showed more mistakes in places. But overall, this was a good performance. And befitting of our manager’s record-equalling game. Palace huffed and puffed a bit in the opening minutes, and Zaha looked strong throughout. However, we bossed this period, with sharp passing, pressing, and incisive inter-play. Our […]
So, the year is almost ending. But then how has it been for us? This is my view: The Good I cannot ignore the FA Cup win. A certain club got second place for the first time in decades, but that’s not a trophy, is it? We were underdogs vs. Chelsea, but then we bossed […]
The Liverpool game was noteworthy, in my mind, for some key points. Firstly, we attack well, and so do Liverpool. Secondly, we defend atrociously. And so do they. Third, it was one of the games of the season. Lastly, we were wrong to boo the Ox. That’s right; I don’t believe he warranted that treatment. […]
Arsenal 3-3 Liverpool Matchday 19 • Emirates Well…wow. What the hell was that? In my preview, I mentioned Liverpool and Arsenal are similar, but this is taking the mickey.This game was a tale of two good attacks, and two poor defences. Liverpool dominated the first half. Firmino looked primed, as Cech saved well at the […]
Arsenal vs. Liverpool Premier League preview Christmas is near, but will we get an early present by beating the Scousers? We will see. However, Salah looks like the signing of the season, and Klopp is still a quality manager. He’s publicly said that we’re a dangerous team, and both hold numerous similarities. We’re both technical […]
Arsenal 1-0 Newcastle United Premier League review I was in the North Bank Upper for this game, and I expected us to win beforehand, and we did. But my sincere hope was not to see “square pass football”. Even though we won, my wish was not granted. We didn’t attack with much width. We dominated […]
