You sold Bale and we signed Mesut Ozil, Mesut Ozil, Mesut f***ing Ozil!! Honestly having been a huge fan of his before I even thought it was possible he could play for my club, I still rub my eyes in disbelief that he sports the mighty red kit of Arsenal! What a player he […]

NLD Review – It is time for more mobility in attack, it is time for Chuba.
After the loss to Tottenham with no chance of a response again this season, I will honestly admit I’m enraged! It means that we have failed to beat them this year that is always damaging to our pride as the far superior club. It’s hard to pinpoint where we went wrong but being the world […]
Where to fit Mesut Ozil if Rosicky & Cazorla are undropable? – AFC v AVFC Preview
The team are in positive spirits ahead of the Villa game at home and it’s a good opportunity to maintain the good mood in the camp. New signing Gabriel Paulista is likely to be involved in the squad which will finally give us the chance to have a balanced bench instead of one full of […]
We Can Break Our European Duck This Year!
Hello guys, it’s the refreshed Subomi here writing again and recent results have given every reason to feel that way. Now people many wonder what my opinion on Wenger currently stands as, and at the minute I feel unsure. I’m uncertain of how far he can take us, mainly through his stubbornness and knack for […]
The Road to Wembley has opened so we MUST take Brighton Seriously – A Chance for Mesut, Theo and Chuba to shine?
With all that has occurred on the weekend we have received good warning that truly anything can happen in the FA Cup. Ever since the Final in may which started to feel like a very long time ago, there’s a feeling that this competition has regained it’s magic. Bigger teams acknowledge the opportunity to win […]
Could Schneiderlin be slipping from Wenger’s mind after Cazorla leads Arsenal to ending Manchester hoodoo?
I must say I woke up a delighted man on Monday morning in light of a wonderful result at the Etihad, with time to reflect on an impressive performance I must touch on a few topics that I believe earned us the win. Firstly I’d like to praise Arsene Wenger for getting it spot on yesterday. […]
Ahead of City today continuity is surely the key – Who’d have thought it would be Coquelin plus 1?
As the Premier league champions await us on a tricky away trip to City, it’s key that we look to get something out the game to really get our season rolling for the 800th time. Personally I try to no longer get my hopes up for games against the big teams because so many times […]
Theo Walcott’s Distinguished Qualities Have Been Missed
With an opportunity to reflect on Theo Walcott’s full return to first team action a week on from the FA Cup test against Hull, the qualities he brings to the side is quite easy to observe. A fully confident Walcott full of match practice may have scored a hat-trick on another day but the rust […]
Time for Coquelin, Ospina, Bellerin and Apkom to shine? – AFC v Hull FA Cup thoughts
We’ve been presented with a good opportunity to get away from the bumpy ride the club has provided us with in the league, a chance to defend our cup. It’s certainly not an easy game and taking this fixture lightly could see us surprised similarly to our early Capital One Cup exit to Southampton. I […]
Young Guns? Can Arsene Wenger and Arsenal REALLY take credit for producing top talent?
Nurturing Talent I frequently come across debates about clubs and their youth products and what teams are worthy of taking pride in producing talent. I find this to be a fairly unique topic because the talent a club has ‘produced’ seems to be generally misinterpreted. When I found myself in a relative debate concerning youngsters […]
