It is a strange time to be an Arsenal supporter and the emotion or feeling that sadly most adequately describes my state of mind is ‘resigned’. It seems highly likely that come the summer now we will find ourselves entering a new era with a new manager for the first full season in 21 years. […]
Being an aging hipster (cough) I have copious amounts of old Billy Bragg on my iPhone. No apologies for that. As I drive around, if I flick the car media player, my player seems to default to a random alphabetical playlist. I am a technophobe and have never managed to change this. So soon after […]
Tonight’s visit of Watford is intriguing for many reasons but none of them really involve the Hornets. This is a team that could not even muster a performance to send of the late Graham Taylor at home so are not likely to threaten and in form Gunners at the Emirates. No this evening is all […]
After two successive FA Cups in 2014 and 2015, Arsene Wenger became the manager who had won the famous old trophy the most. For me this was hugely gratifying after a long period of him deciding to disrespect the world’s oldest football knockout competition. I could just about handle Arsenal using the League Cup to […]
I have seen much talk about Arsenal and in reality Wenger’s ability to alter his approach to secure results, ideally wins, against what can described as ‘the other big clubs’. I hesitate to say title rivals because I am far from certain at present that we are that. As so often is the case our […]

There was a time I used to write many an article about tactics and formations and many of them were about the possibility of Wenger’s Arsenal returning to a 442 system, or a variation of it. If I am honest I gave up for a few years partly because I was continually told that 442, […]
I have not been around much nor have I written much but since my interview with the Bournemouth blogger about Wilshere, Jack had been on my mind. Yesterday I noted he had played 5 consecutive 90 minutes in the Premier League for the first time in 4 years, apparently. Today I heard the AFC Bournemouth […]
Given the fixture this Sunday I thought it would be timely to catch up with a Bournemouth die-hard with no agenda to find out how our prodigal son Jack Wilshere is really doing. I got some time with Steve at Cherries site ‘Tales from the South End’ a renowned AFC Bournemouth blogger. First a bit […]
Well that was irritating in the extreme was it not? I was left with an overwhelming sense of frustration at the manager, his selection and his in game management. Of course I have already been told on social media that I am not qualified to comment on or question the decisions of Arsene Wenger but […]
