Can we sign Trust? I don’t trust Arsenal. I don’t think I have for over 10 years. My son and I get comfortable and excited on the couch. Out Arsenal run. My son looks at me. He does it every game. It’s a mix of fear and adrenaline I see in his face. He’s only […]
The 90 minute commercial Sometimes I wonder why Coca Cola bother with advertising. Where I live many people call any fizzy drink ‘a Coke.’ That’s when you know you’ve got a successful product, right? The Villa game was an inadvertent 90 minute commercial for the bleeding obvious…. that Arsenal need a creative player or two. […]
Nine years coming POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES February 2011, I was truly impressed. Barcelona were peak. We were good but they were arguably the best team of all time. I always prefer to feel my football with my heart and the last time I was so impressed was this Barcelona game. We’ve won bigger […]
So that’s what it’s like to be Norwich POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I was convinced as a kid that my Dad wanted me to support Norwich. We went to Norwich every summer for a family holiday. Every summer. My Dad took us to the castle every year too. Why every year? A kid […]
Polish the rocks to buy the diamonds POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES Many years ago I was in Memphis sitting in a restaurant late at night. I was chatting with a local man who was imparting one pearl of wisdom after another. As is life, we only remember the odd thing here and there. For some […]
#POSITIVES, NEEDS AND HOPES! I saw the sea again POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES Once a year my wife and I enjoy a short trip. We miss our children but revel in the few days of no responsibilities. We go to the beach. I don’t like sunbathing like she does. I just sit and look at […]
Perception protection POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES If you read my last post you’ll know I talked about the different ways to win. I felt that Arteta won the Southampton game tactically. This didn’t surprise me as I see this as a strength. It will happen again. Yesterday, was very surprising. In a way I’m not […]
Pressure wins twice If you are thinking that the headline refers to Arsenal beating Southampton due to two individual moments of pressure, you’d be 50% correct. Arsenal won due to a couple of reasons, and leaning into their speed upfront was certainly one of them. Southampton never found an easy way to play or create […]
A positive solution We don’t have to wait for the transfer window. There is a solution that leans into our individual and team strengths. Our defense is the best it will be until new players arrive. Our midfield is unfit for modern football so why worry about it until it gets blown up as there […]
The Sun will Shine when the Habits change Better players will certainly help. A balanced team is imperative. We as fans could always offer more patience. Regardless of all that though, Arsenal have had the habit of self implosion for a long time. That game was certainly swinging City’s way as it approached half time. […]
