[heading size=”8″]Manchester United 1 Arsenal 0 – Beaten, But Not A Disaster[/heading] Arsenal’s fine unbeaten away form came to an end with a 1-0 defeat against Manchester United at Old Trafford. It was a cagey affair with few chances for either side, ultimately decided by a Robin van Persie header/shoulder off a corner half way […]
M’Baye Niang. A name that is well known to move Arsenal fans and one that belongs with the likes of “Yann M’Vila” or “Ricky Alvarez” on the list of players that, at a very young age, impressed at their home clubs enough to be linked extensively with a move to Arsenal. However, as the title […]
Through The Never – Metallica’s groundbreaking, rip-roaring, 3-D thrash metal of a movie following a roadie’s adventures during their live show. A colleague of mine had recently regaled me about how much his mind was unexpectedly blown on such a trip to the IMAX to see this surreal concert film. The litany of pyrotechnics, lasers, […]
We travel to Dortmund today to play in arguably one of the toughest stadiums to visit in Europe – the Signal Iduna Park or Westfalenstadion depending on your preference. This game will be the pick of the fixtures for many neutrals tonight and promises to be another close fought encounter following Borussia Dortmund’s victory at […]

♪ What a diff’rence a day makes, 24 little hours ♪ Oh how I wish Dinah Washington remixed it to “What a diff’rence 4 days make, 96 little hours”, it would’ve been so so much more fitting. Can we all just for a moment cast our minds back to the mauling we took at the […]
After our midweek slump against Chelsea, I can think of teams I’d rather play that Liverpool at the moment. Liverpool are in a good run of form, not dissimilar to us and will want to do everything to keep that momentum going. With two defeats in two games at The Emirates, we can’t afford to […]
If you forget about the recent losses at the Emirates against Borussia Dortmund and Chelsea, it’s been a very good start to the season. We’re top of the Premier League, spent big money on a genuinely world-class player in Mesut Ozil and have a good chance of getting through our group in the Champions […]
A bit of a wacky one this week! But hopefully a piece that helps you to appreciate the beautiful football Arsenal play in a completely different way! Of course, the past couple of weeks haven’t been quite as good, but I’m sure you’ll have no problem casting your mind back to the beautiful football we’ve […]
