‘Can we do this down the park?’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I have never played for the quadruple. I have never played in front of 60,000. I have never plated for a team where millions are watching and hoping. I have never played under their expectation. None of my coaches come close […]
‘ The Odegaard Conundrum ‘ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective Editor’s Note: Apologies for the late delivery of this article. Gunners Town has moved to a new server and there were some hiccups in transferring. This blog has become even more relevant since Mike delivered it on Monday this week. Apologies to Mike […]
The Arsenal Women Journal – Slow start and more regrets [ARS 0-0] Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! The 0-0 home draw against Manchester United was not the ideal result to kick-start the second half of the season, especially with both Chelsea (5-0 to West Ham) and Manchester City (2-0 to Everton) winning and officially making this […]
‘A stolen epiphany’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective There is so much good Arsenal content. I’d be surprised if another club comes close. After most Arsenal games I tune in to the Arsenal Vision instant reaction. The analysis is elite but for me, more than that I find that they felt the same […]
Oh the irony, Manure pundits are clutching their pearls and calling for Martinelli to be hung, drawn and quartered, and put on spikes at The Tower for all to see. The game was littered with gamesmanship on both sides. Both sets of players were going down ‘injured’ to break up momentum. Gabi wasn’t aware of […]
‘Arsenal decide to join the madness’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective. Have you noticed how nuts this Premier League season has been? People often say that anyone can beat anyone in the Premier league and that is true, but it actually doesn’t happen quite like it has this season. It hasn’t been defeats […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! The winter break is still on, but the Arsenal world doesn’t stop. A couple of days ago, the Club announced the signing of Swedish right-back Smilla Holmberg from Hammarby IF to land one of the most exciting prospects in European football. The 19yo defender, who is already a full international and […]
‘Every once in a while’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I try not to ever make this blog about one player. After a while though, certain players deserve credit aside from their team related performance. They need to be singled out because they are largely responsible for changing the game of football itself. […]
Little by Little An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective This period of the season is likely to be the most forgettable month. If anything at all, maybe it’s the month of favour. Where Father Christmas showed up and left a few extra presents because he found out that dad was struggling to get it […]
‘A game about yesterday’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective So that was the most forgettable game of the season. Easily. I’m glad that I was on my Christmas trip to Cincinnati with Lori, spending most of our time pretending that we were 19, whilst hanging out at one of the coolest speakeasies I’ve […]
