So, our winning streak came to an end yesterday. While it was obvious this would happen at some point, and I fully realize we don’t get to pick and choose, dropping points at home to a team 17th in the table is hardly ideal. In the preview I talked a bit about how important it […]
In the past I have been accused of being negative or having some form of personal agenda against Arsene Wenger. Accusations, that unsurprisingly, originate from supporters who wear rose-tinted spectacles where our manager is concerned. These are accusations that I strongly refute and would argue that perhaps it is those who choose to focus on […]
Howdy. Another week is behind us, which means the Premier League football returns. This game week kicks off with Spurs visiting Bournemouth, however Manchester City don’’t play until Sunday, which means Arsenal will be able to go top, provided we win on Saturday. And look, I see no reason why we shouldn’t. The team has […]
Winning the games “we should win”, and the new red card laws explained in detail Another week, another two wins. This is becoming something of a habit now isn’t it? Not bad after an international break either. I feel the need to apologise in advance for the amount of quotation marks in this week’s […]
A couple of thoughts on the nature of the league, as of now. Take a look at the table, we sit 2nd on goal difference but level on points with Manchester City who were the runaway leaders at the start of the campaign. The Media darlings, as we would say. Yet, there is absolutely no […]
The Champions league is back and Arsenal face Bulgarian team Ludogorets Razgrad. It will be the first time these two have ever met. Ludogorets were only founded 15 years ago in 2001 but have been in Europe that last 4 years so this isn’t new to them and I’m sure they won’t be fazed by […]
I am going to cut to the chase here; I think Saturday’s mixed bag of a display from Arsenal identified more problems on Arsenal’s left than was exposed by the speed of Barrow. Selecting a team to challenge in any given match and indeed for the Premier League has to be about the right balance […]
Howdy. Premier League action finally returns and with it does the actual football. This weekend promises to be very exciting for neutrals, as Chelsea take on Leicester in an early kick-off on Saturday, City face Everton on Sunday and United go to Anfield to try and slow down Klopp’s men. Oh, there’s also the small […]
Following yet another dismal performance by England, Theo called a prezzer to announce his retirement from international football. Since breaking into the England squad at the 2006 World Cup at the tender age of 12, Theo has played 46 matches for The Three Lions, with a low return of 8 goals. Theo’s England career has […]
Last season was meant to be our season. At New Year’s Day 2016 we were many pundits’ tip for the Title – partly because we were playing well and partly because other teams were floundering. It didn’t happen and we found ourselves in a fight – successful – for second place. Not to be […]
