I agree with Andrea Rosati from his piece on Wednesday that we are now in a position where Wenger has to make 100% correct tactical decisions beginning with Chelsea. Conte has Chelsea playing to a system, which the team understands, and he has fitted all his square pegs into square holes. The key to his […]
I have to work. And by ‘work’, I mean write beautiful, creative, inspiring music. On a deadline. Try doing that when there is a Mariana Trench of a frown that won’t wipe itself off your forehead. Try doing that when you still find yourself shaking your head when you remember that last night Arsenal played […]
Arsenal and Bayern Munich will once again lock horns in the first knockout rounds of the Champions League. The sides have met three times in the round of 16 with the Gunners losing each time, putting huge pressure on Arsene Wenger and his men to end their struggles against the German giants. The Gunners have […]
Aaron Ramsey – World Class or Bang Average? Aaron Ramsey – The most interesting player to review at Arsenal for me. I know it’s dangerous to go online and give your analysis of a player so what I am going to try to articulate is my journey with Aaron Ramsey. How my feelings have changed, […]

With the incorporation of Alexis, Lucas, Giroud, Ozil, Iwobi, Xhaka and Ramsey all in the same attack at various points of a game I think we can agree that this is our best attack for quite a few years. The effectiveness is there, because coming back from deficits requires mental will no doubt but also […]
Just perhaps the sequence of events went something like this………………. A German player fed up with the annual Arsenal implosion and no one getting on the end of his wonderful passes after January, tells his boss he wants out in May. The German player’s agent knowing his client’s boss and employer will not sell to […]
