I was reading some blogs in the aftermath of both the 3-3 draw against Anderlecht at home and the 1-2 defeat at the Liberty Stadium – it was quite depressing, I must say. I agree issues seem blatant and it appears they haven’t been addressed for some time; I agree that mistakes look often the […]
I reckon it’s quite a long shot nowadays, however I was thinking about one specific question raised during last AGM about Arsène Wenger succession at the club. The person asked whether or not the club was already planning for life after Arsène Wenger, seemingly more and more plausible that the Alsatian signed his last contract […]
“If we find the right player to strengthen the squad, we will buy” “We want to improve our team but we need to find players of better quality then those who are already here and that is difficult” This is Arsène Wenger, very easy guess. It’s much harder to get the exact date each of […]
Hi everyone! I’m just back from a wonderful road trip in Scotland and I was glad I could find out that the country responsible for the birth, rise and success of Sir Alex Ferguson is also able to produce something wonderful, which is reassuring. I explored the Highlands from west to east and back, going […]
There is a word many associate to Arsène Wenger these days, that is the word “project”. First there was the Emirates Stadium project, then the (in)famous youth project, now there’s this we-will-be-competitive-again project. It seems that Arsène Wenger loves to build. I am not bothered at all with all these projects, I admired a lot […]
Theo Walcott is almost ready to return, and I, for one, can’t wait for it. Despite not being very impressed by Theo Walcott in his early days, this guy has made some tremendous improvements over the years and is now one of my favourite players. He stayed quiet when many were labeling him as brainless […]
Three goals in three minutes, that was wonderful. Mesut Özil pulling a Mesutözilesque performance was wonderful, too. Also, Danny Welbeck opening his Arsenal account was wonderful. And a clean sheet, wonderful! I still have a bad taste in mouth, though. A very light one, but it’s here and there’s nothing a can do about it. […]
Oi Gooners! I’m still thinking about the game against Manchester City, I’m still wondering how on Earth we were one down at half time and I’m still asking myself who intervened to ensure we would hold on in those painful final minutes. It was a great match, wasn’t it? Insane pace, unbelievable commitments, awesome pressure […]
The news – or alleged news, to be more accurate – broke a couple of days after Arsenal’s announcement about Danny Welbeck: Arsène Wenger was not aware of the signing of the English forward on permanent basis. Would you believe it? I don’t. Arsène Wenger, the ultimate deus-ex-machina of the Arsenal Football Club wasn’t informed […]
Alexis Sanchez. Mathieu Débuchy. David Ospina. Calum Chambers. Danny Welbeck. And people still brand this transfer window as terrible. I get the point that we should have added a defender in order to complete the unit, is that enough to label Arsène Wenger’s job as horrible? I don’t know what you think about it but I haven’t experienced such an […]
