For all the criticism heaped on Arsene Wenger for his tendacy to be reluctant when it comes to spending big in the transfer market, it is forgotten that the Frenchman is as shrewd they come when identifying the finest European talent available. Case in point; this summer’s signing of Santi Cazorla for a mere (these […]

Oli G needs some Va Va Voom
4 appearances – 0 goals. That is all the papers are focussing on. Not the fact that Arsenal as a team are streets ahead of where they were last season. This time last year, the Gunners had shipped 10 goals (8 of which occured at Old Trafford – a debut to forget for The Ox), […]
Arsenal playing six-y football
One of my favourite all time Arsenal goals was scored by Robert Pires away to Southampton. Now, Podolski’s free kick is knocking on the door. Before this match I watched highlights of Arsenal’s last loss to Southampton and our double hattrick win away. WTTGT
PREVIEW: Southampton
This international break has had the distinct feeling of a colonoscopy: there was the typical dreading of the 2 week-long event; the horrible experience of it actually happening; followed of course by the tortuous wait for the results to come in, specifically with regards to injuries to our, very often, overly fragile players. Well I’m […]
Will Arsene Wenger sign a new contract at Arsenal?
Despite Arsene Wenger’s protestations that there have been no contract extension talks as of yet, Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis’ comments this week suggest that an offer to the 62 year old Frenchman to extend his spell in charge at the Emirates beyond 2014 is imminent. Indeed, Wenger’s proclamations and delaying tactics have been seen […]
Top 5 things to do during the International break
The international breaks seem to come at a strange time. Considering we’ve had a full of football throughout Euro 2012 and the London Olympic Games, it has taken just three games into the new Premier League season for us to once again put country in front of club. Now not everyone is a great fan […]
Three of the Best
The season may only be three games old, but since the end of the last campagin there are already a number of positives to take away from the year so far. Our 2012/13 Premier League adventure has so far seen us endure goalless draws at home to Sunderland and away at Stoke City as well […]
Could Drogba still cut it at Arsenal?
I wake up this morning getting ready for my shift with Sports Mole and see that someone on the site has covered the story that Arsenal are reportedly after Didier Drogba. Apparently we’ve already made numerous official enquiries about the former Chelsea man who haunted us for years. WTTGT
Arsenal gear up for what could be a telling run of fixtures
Despite the international interlull, Arsene Wenger is sure to already be plotting his tactics for the next few weeks, which he defines himself as a hugely vital one in determining where his team will be challenging this season. Arsenal impressed in their 2-0 victory at Anfield with a stylish, slick performance. But perhaps it should […]
Alex set to reach seventh heaven
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is almost certain to earn his seventh England cap on Tuesday at Wembley against a strong Ukraine side, but the Arsenal man will have to maintain his level of performance beyond forty-five minutes this time. That’s the view of England boss Roy Hodgson, who expects a sustained effort from the winger if selected […]
