So today we wake up with the realisation that every other top side has won and Arsenal’s catch up programme – if there is to be one – starts on Monday. Also on Monday we are quite likely to see Ozil, Alexis and Lacazette together on the pitch for the first time this season. Now […]
Somebody who once worked for Match of the Day infamously said that winning the league was impossible with kids. Of course, Alan Hansen was talking about Ferguson’s blend of talented kids and season pros after an early season hammering at the hands of Aston Willa. What is rarely commented on was the poor state of […]
My 7-month stint writing for weekly for Football London is over and my house move is behind me so you will hearing more from me back here on GT. There are a few subjects on my mind, most of which have been discussed ad infinitum so the end of the summer transfer window closed to […]
So is it Alexis to City That a would be a pity But then again he has been shitty Ox can’t pass He has no class He had final say But he won’t play But Ozil’s still here Cry or Cheer? He wants to go but there is no taker For the lazy languid but […]

Whilst it is too early to draw too many conclusions after one match, there was […]
This is one of those completely off the wall blog ideas, the seed of which was planted by the phrase – “Have we bought Lemar yet?” A phrase that for some obscure reason brought to mind, well my mind at least, the equally annoying question, often posed by children in the back of a car, […]
In May 2009, an eclectic and globally assembled bunch of Arsenal youngsters won the FA Youth Cup. As so often is the case the huge and hopeful expectation that we might see a good number advance into the senior ranks has not been fulfilled. Many of the group such as Henri Lansbury, Jay Emanuel Thomas […]
This blog will be short and sweet, (not always the case with me) and has been inspired by those making comparisons between our shiny new record signing and a certain Mr Ian Wright. Indeed only yesterday, a man who should know, Gerard Houllier, described Lacazette as the ‘New Ian Wright’. Indeed there so may similarities […]
We are only actually a few days into the Transfer Window but of course, the activity and bidding began well ahead of the 1st July opening. Certainly, by now the players Arsene and Arsenal have been linked to, or have indeed signed must begin to give us some pattern, a narrative or at least a […]
