I’m sorry Arsene but Alexis does not address the elephant in the room and will not keep Stan that extra £50m extra in the bank. Sanchez is not a number 9. Not that he’s not good enough, far from it. He wants to be involved, he wants to create. Because he is not getting […]
As the game wore on I started to get desperate. The reason for my desperation stemmed from the fact I couldn’t see how Arsenal was going to win the game, but it was obvious how Leicester could. It is a familiar situation for Arsenal fans, albeit not the most frequent one. Arsenal didn’t pose much […]
When Theo Walcott failed to convert the penalty kick I thought it was going to be one of those days. I don’t have the numbers to back it and I’m not sure this kind of data exists in a public source readily available, but I have this nagging feeling Arsenal rarely does well after scuffing […]
So, Arsenal are starting another season short-handed. The striker to help Giroud has not been found and AFC are still one centre-back short. Granit Xhaka was brought in immediately after last season ended to ensure season ticket renewals and I don’t think the Club had any concrete plan to fill up the gaps in the […]
So, the new season is just around the corner. We start the 16/17 campaign in style, by facing Liverpool at home. This should ensure the players and the manager approach the game fully concentrated on the task ahead. No underestimating our opponents, Liverpool is one of the teams to beat this season. So in a […]
So having helped build up Gunners Town from scratch in 2013 I am now going to be writing for it more often. A regular column here along with a bi-weekly Shoot feature will be my blogging homes for 2016/17. So amid all the ‘will he won’t he splash the cash’ and do what we all […]
“I’ve said to the manager that I want to be known for playing on the right again. I can play up front, given the opportunity, and the manager says I can play up front, so it depends on which game it is. I know I can do a job up front as well as on […]
How to solve a problem like Higuain I saw a funny tweet the other day, it went something like this ‘’according to local reports, Gonzalo Higuain has undergone too many medical tests at Arsenal, and has now become a qualified doctor’’, I assure you that reading that as a tweet was a lot funnier than […]
Part 2 -The Emirates years In Arsene’s last 10 years there have been a lot of low points at the club. There has been a long drought without a trophy and Wenger’s team been have been seen to bottle it under pressure. After moving into the new Emirates Stadium in 2006, Wenger […]
Aaron Ramsey had a blinder at Euro 2016. Leading Wales to an unexpected semi-final (albeit one he was unfortunately suspended from) and standing out in every match he played in. He ended with stats of 5 appearances 4 assists and 1 goal, in my eyes he’s been the best Arsenal player at the tournament (Koscielny […]
