I’m happy with this game, and our performance in it. We didn’t win, granted. But then Liverpool is a serious team now and is further down the cycle from us in terms of challenging for and winning leagues. They certainly have had better transfer windows than us of late, and have brought in better […]
Not ready to win it, but can Arsenal compete for the league? POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES As important as winning the big games is the belief gained. If I were Unai Emery, I would ask the players if they felt they were at the same level as Liverpool. Do not tell them. Some may just […]
It started with Hector Bellerin winning back possession in his own penalty area. 19 seconds and 9 passes between 5 players later, Aaron Ramsey had flicked the ball between his legs and Arsenal had scored their wonderful third goal amongst a quintuple of accomplished finishes that put Fulham to the sword at Craven Cottage. Unai […]
Fulham 1-5 Arsenal PREMIER LEAGUE REVIEW Today was always going to be tough, considering our trip to Azerbaijan, and then an early kick-off albeit in London and not far away. However, today was sexy football. Yes, Fulham is a promoted side, which whilst with much historic PL experience, may go down again this season. […]

Arsenal 2-0 Watford – review We had the “cojones” today. We are neighbours in some senses. Our training grounds are adjacent, and Hertfordshire (their home county) borders Greater London. We also have achieved success via style in the past – like Barnes and Blissett in the past for them. Or Wenger for us. […]
Cardiff City 2-3 Arsenal – Premier League review A hard fought win in the Welsh capital for us, and about time we got another away win. Our last trip to this part of our country saw one of our worst defeats last season. But today, we got the win, and overall it was […]
Arsenal 3-1 West Ham United – Premier League review Irons eventually got rusted….. This wasn’t sexy football. It was winning ugly – and how. It was good to win this relegation six-pointer though, wasn’t it? Senor Emery got his first win as our new head coach, and it wasn’t easy. I didn’t agree […]
Chelsea 3-2 Arsenal – Premier League Review Another “acceptable” loss…… The “Kings of London” derby ended in a defeat. And like the City game, it was a mix of bad and good. The bad was poor defending and positioning. In some cases, our finishing wasn’t that good either. But the good was […]
There has been much written in the aftermath of the opening weekend defeat in Emery’s first competitive match. I have read much of it, listened to more and even found myself wholly unready to talk about what went wrong on the radio on Monday. It is difficult because I am certain the vast majority of […]
