We won way – again!! A complete performance. Wolves were tamed into dogs by the Arsenal. This was one of the best away wins in some years. Everyone to a man was on their top form. There were no errors, and we were structured, disciplined, and professional throughout. It was an away […]
Arteta’s Arsenal shows physicality and strength in depth to beat Wolves Arsenal gave that extra 10 percent needed for victory against Wolves, as they beat an in form side boasting three wins in their last three matches 2-0. Critics might argue that Wolves were not at their best, but it was the Gunner’s defensive discipline […]
ITKs, eh? I always found them fascinating but reading their breaking news these days really is something else. I’m not against having some fun with rumours about this or that guy but you do need a fair share of creativity to be doing that when nobody knows how football will be when it resumes. The […]
One of the stand out features of yesterday’s match, Arsenal first under their new coach, was the role of Ainsley Maitland-Niles. Of course, it remains to be seen whether Arteta will continue with the young Englishman, when Hector Bellerin is fit but the way he was deployed was interesting and worthy of comment. You […]
Newcastle United 0-1 Arsenal review Premier League – 11th August 2019 It wasn’t a classic and flowing Arsenal. But it was a winning Arsenal. Spurs, Liverpool and City all won by more, but then we still did well to get the win. Our star forward, for me, played like a prime Thierry Henry […]
In defence of our Defence I’m optimistic about this coming season. The attacking trio of Auba, Lacazette and Pepe excites me. A midfield of Ceballos, Torreira and Özil excites me. The players coming through like Nelson and Smith-Rowe give me hope for the future, but what also makes me think we can make the top […]
Arsenal vs. Crystal Palace – PL preview After the triumph in Naples, we face fellow Londoners Crystal Palace at home on Easter Sunday. With their keeper, seemingly, not having knowledge of arguably the definitive events of the 20th century (for our country and globally….) Palace seems safe enough though they would want to […]
The Unspoken Illumination’ – Positives, needs and hopes! Personal improvement has never been and will never be headline making. (unless you are Pep perhaps!! I was watching the game last night and suddenly I was struck by the absent headline of the ‘New Arsenal.’ It was just after AMN confidently breezed past Insigne on […]
Another away match and another performance that failed to inspire confidence but a valuable three points in the bag. As a fan you would like to simply sit back and enjoy the ride with a new chauffeur but at times Emery’s Arsenal conspire to make that difficult. Indeed, it sometimes seems that Emery’s executive limousine […]
POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES Firstly, it was rumoured that both Arsenal and Bayern looked closely at Saints new manager. That was the best-coached game against AFC this season. We never breathed today. We were smothered with intelligent tactics. Important that we recognize the needs we have but also that game was made very difficult […]
