Arsenal 5-1 Everton With the introduction of PEA and Mkhi, and both of them contributing to this fine win vs Everton, we’re still adapting to life after “Alexit”. Do you miss Alexis? Well, thus far, the team doesn’t. Our two new boys had good games, with Mkhi being man of the match. Our old boy […]
Swansea 3-1 Arsenal Being a Gooner has some terribly wild ups and downs. There was the low of us messing up, potentially, the PEA deal. Then we’ve got him. And now we lose to Swansea. Granted, Liverpool lost to them, but they won tonight and we needed this win to get top four. But what’s […]
Arsenal 4-1 Crystal Palace This was a good performance overall. We blitzed Palace in the opening half an hour and they were spectacularly poor. It was our first Alexis-less game, with his move to United looking very certain. However, life after Alexit as it were seems OK. We were sharper in the first –half, and […]
Bournemouth 2-1 Arsenal Premier League Matchday 22 Vitality Stadium – January 14th, 2018 Bournemouth grabs first ever win over Arsenal More bad news? Seems like it. It doesn’t rain, but it pours, seemingly….. The starting line-up didn’t include Sanchez, amidst the speculation of him joining United (over City no less). Iwobi, despite his recent […]
Chelsea 0-0 Arsenal Carabao Cup Semi-Final Leg 1 Stamford Bridge • January 10, 2018 Where did this come from? My latest match reviews have been pretty morose. Well, it’s pretty much on point, considering we’ve played the same bad stuff, and hit new lows. But today, we did OK. Chelsea had a stronger team out […]
Nottingham Forest 4-2 Arsenal FA Cup 3rd Round January 7th 2018 This is a new low. Forest have tradition, and have done things we haven’t (European Cup). But then we allowed them to bully us, press us, and dominate our defence. Online betting sites such as 888Sport and virtually the whole footballing world had Arsenal […]
Arsenal 2-2 Chelsea Emirates Stadium, London January 4th, 2018 The good Arsenal turned up today, and not the bad one that showed up at West Ham, Southampton, or West Brom. I genuinely suspected it might, and I tweeted such pre-match. I don’t know, maybe it was a hunch, but a correct one nonetheless. Chelsea look […]
Happy New Year to all but not a happy end to 2017 for Wenger and our team. Last night’s performance was not just poor and lacking in intensity with Ozil’s spark, it was also, in my view at least tactically inept. For some Wenger can still do no wrong and they will say how can […]
WBA 1-1 Arsenal Not the best of performances last night. And a certain Mr. Dean did rob us. But in honesty, that’s not what’s bothering me. What IS bothering is another sideways shuffle and impotent performance in the final third. We had more than enough, in terms of personnel, to win that game. It’s just […]
Palace 2-3 Arsenal This was good. Yes, we showed more mistakes in places. But overall, this was a good performance. And befitting of our manager’s record-equalling game. Palace huffed and puffed a bit in the opening minutes, and Zaha looked strong throughout. However, we bossed this period, with sharp passing, pressing, and incisive inter-play. Our […]
