Nietszche On Wenger: (Nietszche Knows Best!)
Nietzsche Knows Best Arsene arrived at Arsenal on 1st October 1996, under a blaze of overwhelming mockery. The press didn’t know him, the fans didn’t know him and the players didn’t know him.

An Open Letter to Antiquated Arsene, Subservient Steve, Short-armed Stan and Ivan the Terrible
Richard Branson once said, “We are human beings, not human doings”. This is a great mantra for life, (and one I should personally follow a lot closer) but this doesn’t work for a football club. Just being a football club doesn’t cut it. You have to do as well and Arsenal Football Club are not […]
If Carlsberg did Football Transfers……
If Carlsberg did Football transfers….. As 2017 comes to an end, I was preparing my annual Arsenal synopsis, but I thought, nah, there will be loads of them out there and to be fair, we all know the executive summary; ‘Must try harder and have greater consistency to meet minimum standards’.
