Michael Jeffares Column If the Twittersphere is anything to go by then we are in for a season of turmoil, if our leadership at the club was anything like supporters’ opinion then I’d dread to think how our club would be performing on the pitch. Thankfully, we don’t have any input into the running of […]

A striker, a winger, a creative midfielder and a goalkeeper to complete Arsenal jigsaw
Considered Cohen With the recent signing of Yaya Sanogo, and the discussion about Gonzalo Higuain and Wayne Rooney, it’s pretty easy to see where Arsene Wenger views needed improvements- in the striker/central forward role. It’s positive to see that Arsenal are strengthening their forward line- a position which the Gunners struggled with at different stages […]
Metathesiophobia, Emotional Intelligence and Arsenal
Weekly Education Many Gooners preach about change, but actually find it hard to handle, or even picture in their minds. Whatever scale it may be, in general we don’t like not knowing the outcome of potential or actual alterations. Of course, there were, and still are, many fans (more than ever) calling for change last […]
Theo Walcott: Efficiency, Consistency, and World Class status.
Mr. T’s Nuts Last season, Theo Walcott’s contribution in terms of goals and assists was 38 in all competitions. If he does it again next year or improves on those numbers, so long he keeps his head down and keeps working on it over the next few years you can start to expect that from […]
Is Higuain good enough for Arsenal? Is Arsenal good enough for Rooney?
The Monthly Munson At the end of May the football season came to an end and thus, come June, silly season began. The transfer rumours started hitting our Sunday supplements and social media sites, some more laughable than others. We have been linked with everyone from our former captain, Francesc Fabregas, to anyone the so […]
He’s got big hair but we don’t care… Marouane Fellaini
What’s The Score?! Welcome to another week of “What’s the score?!” – It’s been another frustrating week with the transfer market hotting up around Europe. Arsenal are yet to make any notable signing. However, as I said a few weeks ago, I don’t honestly think anything will happen until the transfer window officially opens this forthcoming Monday, […]
Gonzalo Higuain; Great stats but is he just a flat track bully?
Michael Jeffares Column Another week passes by and still no signings. It’s not a concern at present, as there’s still two full calendar months before the transfer window will come to an end. That said the most publicised rumour has to be that of Gonzalo Higuain. He is a potential signing that has caused a […]
Wayne Rooney; The First Piece of the Arsenal Puzzle
Global Gooner Sundays With transfer rumors heating up, and Arsenal fans already frustrated that no one has been bought, I thought that I would discuss one of the most divisive Arsenal targets floating around in the ether. The bald virtuoso himself – Wayne Rooney. Let me preface this by saying, I’ve been in favor of […]
Arsenal’s “Media Watch”; Hate it or love it, it’s here to stay
Global Gooner Sundays I’m not the biggest fan of Arsenal’s Media Watch page. And chances are, if you’re a supporter who spends the better part of your waking hours thinking about Arsenal (or football in general), and you understand how tabloids are generally not very reliable, you’re not the biggest fan of that feature on […]
Ray Parlour = Mathieu Flamini = Aaron Ramsey and Arsene Wenger loves Perpetual Motion and Defensive Possession
Mr. T’s Nuts During the invincible season Arsenal were completely dominant in midfield, which owed much to the world class talent we had the time. We also had a fantastic central partnership in Gilberto Silva and Patrick Vieira, and the supporting cast of Edu and Ray Parlour were great squad options when called upon. It […]
