The weekends result was no doubt painful, losing to your nearest rivals always is, but there is a sense from some quarters that we should be concerned at how the rest of the season will pan out. From my perspective there’s no reason to panic as we have been on a good run with impressive […]

Yesterday demonstrated Ramsey needs to change or be replaced – NLD Player Review highlights problems
There are times when 140 characters just won’t do. Right now, as the Spurs fans you forgot you knew suddenly appears back into your life, I have moved on from ‘they deserved it’ emotion to ‘Arsenal why did you let this happen’ emotion? I did not think I needed reminding, but we should never let […]
Is Tottenham away a BIG game like City, United or Chelsea or not Monseiur Wenger?
Good Wednesday Gooners in this is the week leading to the North London Derby! A very brief conversation I had yesterday with our dear Dave (@goonerdave66) and his consequent article inspired me for this week’s blog. The question I have been asking myself is this: Is Tottenham at White Hart Lane a big away game, […]
Arsenal now have a ‘Blueprint for European Success’
Arsenal last advanced to the quarterfinals of the Champions in 2010 where they were beaten by Barcelona thanks to four goals from Lionel Messi at the Nou Camp. Since then they have been dumped out of the competition twice by Bayern Munich and Barcelona and once in a crazy tie against AC Milan. The […]
Is it Crazy to say this Arsenal squad could win the Premier League? Maybe Not!
“Arsenal don’t have any squad depth!” That must be the reason why today it’s virtually impossible to pick a starting XI without leaving out one or two excellent players. Mesut Özil and Theo Walcott made their comebacks recently, Aaron Ramsey did the same a bit earlier while, with perfect timing, Santi Cazorla, Tomas Rosicky and […]
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 […]
It is the week of Cazorla & Coquelin but is this due to Wenger taking tactical advice from Thierry Henry?
Captain’s Log, star-date 1,1,7,9 point something. I’d been challenged to a Kruz-Na! by the Captain of a Klingon ship and I was ready to fight her to the death, but it turns out that a Kruz-Na! isn’t a battle, it’s something else…something dirty… Manchester City I said last week that a draw […]
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 […]
Time for Wenger to toughen up.
Time for Wenger to finally be firm with his players – Drop Szczeny and play Opsina Surely it is time for Arsene Wenger became firm with his players? In today’s football world, with access to Twitter, Facebook and Instagram along with teenage players already having wages of thousands and thousands of pounds, it isn’t always […]
The World Class players we now have are improving our Young Guns!
2 wins in 2 makes it an inappropriate time to maintain my stance on the boss so I’m going to highlight something different this week. A little situation I’ve observed at Arsenal is that when world class players are at the club it brings the best out of our promising younger players that also have […]
