With the Euros done and dusted (love you Bukayo!), it is time for the focus to shift completely to The Arsenal – especially their squad building for the upcoming year. Nuno Tavares became the first signing of the summer last week and the pace of arrivals and departures is expected to pick up over the […]
In an exchange with Tottenham website Spurs For Life, Gunners Town writer Chris (@MarbleHallsTV) contributed this piece on today’s North London Derby Below is Spurs For Life contributor Andy’s response: _________ When I think of Arsenal I always think of my good friend Brucey. He’s one of those football fans who is quite pragmatic and […]
The last time we played Manchester City, it was a game that looked like a defining moment of the title race. We had been consistent until then and, with Chelsea’s collapse, taking on the title favourites at home with a squad decimated by injuries. We claimed a fantastic victory but the title challenge that so […]
It’s always refreshing to write something about Arsenal after we’ve had a couple of good results. While I am long past the stage where an Arsenal defeat will ruin the next few days, the constant supply of ‘Arsenal-bashing’ via papers, blogs, YouTube and horrible Chelsea fans means you end up getting caught up in the […]
Not a great week for Arsenal and it is better for all our minds to say as little as possible about it. However there were two big positives from those disappointing results to Watford and Barcelona: Alex Iwobi and Elneny. I was extremely impressed by Iwobi during our FA Cup run this year but there […]
It was hardly a surprise that Arsenal lost to Barcelona. They are the best team in the world and their front three contains three of the world’s best strikers.

Arsenal’s FA Cup fixture against Hull will bring back memories of the memorable 2014 final at Wembley but for the squad and the manager, it is the start of another of those mini blocks of games that could be season defining. Playing Hull, Barcelona and Manchester United in the space of eight days in three […]
Arsenal’s visit to Anfield on Wednesday kick starts a run of games that will be crucial in determining the strength of Arsenal’s title challenge this season. As I wrote before the FA Cup tie against Sunderland, the destiny of the Premier League title will be decided by Arsenal’s away form given the number of tough […]
So we begin our second defence of the FA Cup in as many years. Successive triumphs in 2014 and 2015 were my first trophy winning experiences as an Arsenal fan and it was then I realised how stupid arguments such as ‘It’s only the FA Cup’ or ‘The League Cup is not even a major […]
Boxing Day was a huge reality check for the players and the manager as it came immediately after the highs of the win over Manchester City. The 4-0 drubbing at Southampton was not what you’d expect from title favourites but fortunately for Arsenal, just about any team in the league looks capable of taking a […]
