You make it easy POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES You might say that the reason that yesterday‘s game looked easy was the because of the gulf in quality. I think you would be right to a certain extent. There is however the thought that quality is on paper and not necessarily what happens on the field. […]
The way you make me feel POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES By Michael Jackson McDonald Arsenal really turned me on yesterday. They knocked me off of my feet. My lonely days are…. that’s enough of that. I did love that song though. I do believe there may have even been a couple of crotch grabs in front […]
If that was the past POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES Before the game started I was really looking forward to simply watching my team. I’ve been bragging about the ‘new Arsenal’ to many people and told them to tune in. I desperately wanted Arsenal to show my friends and the world that they have changed. The […]
POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I really hate that title. That phrase. Little bit of sick mouth. I thought about calling this piece ’Similar to bringing in a player from another team’ (STBIAPFAT), but that’s trying too hard. Either way, it does accurately describe a couple of things I’ve seen at Arsenal this pre-season. One is […]
The Never Headlines POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I’ve never agreed with those commenting on preseason that state that fitness is the main focus. To me that’s like telling me that the focus of my day is getting ready in the morning. Fitness is clearly the foundation and very important just like getting ready in the […]
The confidence gap POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I think we all have a tendency to put labels on human characteristics. I used to do it until I became aware that it really is never closer than 80% true. In my job I teach children of all ages all day long. I have been doing it since […]
Bunny buzzing, bunny died POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES This post should be sponsored by Duracell or they should at least be giving me some money for that title. You can keep reading. I’m not gonna talk about bunnies. The ridiculous analogy speaks to the common difference in what is looking like an ever improving team […]
The Season before the Season An end of season review and glimpse into 22/23 I’ve been on pause waiting to write this end of season review for a few weeks now. I wanted it to encapsulate how I felt about the season and what I think is fair and right to state but needed to […]
Fear and fearlessness Positives, Needs And Hopes I often wonder what the next evolution in football will be. Sometimes I think that since the game changed from being a player’s game to a coach’s game, there will be a need for greater improvisation as defensive blocks will nullify what is repeated. Sometimes I think […]
How should I feel? Positive Needs and Hopes What’s the name of that place in the Caribbean that everybody thinks is the ultimate luxury? I’ve forgotten so I’m going to go and ask my wife…… OK, it’s Atlantis. At least to me as a young adult I always saw the commercials for Atlantis and thought […]
