Alex is here to stay. The Frenchman, who had a fairly below-par season last year, is the latest player to state his willingness to stay at the Club, amid speculations about his future.It’s been a few years now that we had players who were staying put while blatantly out of favor, like Kieran Gibbs, Carl […]
It started with a tweet: We haven’t seen a character like Mattéo Guendouzi for quite some time at the Arsenal, have we?For years, we’ve been served well-mannered, cool-headed guys who would never dare to disagree – at least not publicly; there was the Xhaka saga, with the Swiss player lashing out at fans before being […]
Héctor goes? Ainsley Maitland-Niles stays? Will we get Houssem Aouar or Thomas Partey? Will we get both? How? I understand how the transfers are getting everyone excited – or worried – and I sense the anticipation of the next sale or buy, I get it. I’m more of an actual football guy, though, therefore I’m […]
There is a statue in Rio de Janeiro, on top of the Corcovado mountain, that observes all passers by from above, whether they are locals or tourists, and is ready to listen to their lamentations and offer support.

I feel that Women’s football should get more […]
343 might not be the formation we like but it is the formation we need! The imminent arrival of Willian from Chelsea sparkled lots of debates about his age profile, role, suitability, wages, resale value and Gooners all over the world had lots of different opinions about it.There seems to be one thing everyone agreed […]
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the % game. With the transfers window now open and in an attempt to take my mind off the upcoming FA Cup Final against Chelsea, I tried to assess the current squad and see how many chances each player has to still be at the Club, next season. It […]
Wiltooooooooooooooord! Arsenal have scored yet again, in the Premiership, and it might well be the most important one of the lot! Nice times when the Frenchman, the first to react to a loose ball in the box after a shot from Freddie Ljungberg, hit the back of the net for what would prove to be […]
Football has restarted. Allegedly. The Bundesliga, of which everyone on this freaking planet suddenly became an aficionado and an expert, has been the first on the top five European leagues to kick-start the end of their campaign, after the lockdown. Games were obviously played behind closed doors and health & safety measures were applied to […]
