Here we are in again in August, on the eve of the Community Shield and the outlook has changed most definitely from recent years, as in, by mid-July, we already had four signings made, and good ones at that, with good money spent.

QPR 0-1 Arsenal – “Momentum” In Our Favour, As The End Is In Sight
In an ideal world, my first match report for Welcome To The Gunners Town match review would’ve followed a thrilling encounter packed with goals and talking points, maybe in the manner of the 5-2 victory against Tottenham Hotspurs, or even a gentle 7-3 win against a club managed by Alan Pardew.
