A scouting report from Switzerland, that is Dave’s (@goonerdave66) latest idea; and what a glorious idea that is. I have a unique opportunity to let people know that my soon-to-be country has one of the best-organized and productive youth academies you might find. Here in Switzerland, discipline and work come before pure talent and there’s […]
Arsene in fact said, “I have a little cock n’ bull story to tell you, about transfers”, but never mind, he kind of said it… right? Ah yes, that time of year again, when every word is twisted to make a story of transfer related bullshit. (I think I may have used this before, but […]
I’m not going to talk about transfers, please revert to the very needed and classy Media Watch section on Arsenal’s website for that. Don’t be misled by the title then, the whole point of this blog is trying to understand how Arsène Wenger sees the Arsenal going into next season. We were all happy with […]
It’s been a while since my last post for Gunners Town. Apologies for that but being busy with my book launch and blog in Germany didn’t leave that much time. After Sky Germany broke the story about Julian Draxler edging closer to a Schalke exit I thought now is a good time to get back […]
In November of last year I wrote a blog which the editors here at Gunners Town titled ‘Arsene Wenger is not top class anymore’, which was as accurate a reflection of the piece as you could get. It wasn’t a reactionary rant about another painful loss, (it was after we blew 3 goal lead to […]
I would like to thank our friends at Forty Nine Undefeated for allowing us to post this superb article by Gooner Chris (@AFC_ChrisGooner) In a world where short term needs and requirements are largely put before long term planning, football is no different. In fact it is worse, it feels like not a day goes by […]
So much has already been said about the Cup Final, but I just don’t get tired of reading about how glorious we were on Saturday, and I’m guessing that most Arsenal fans feel the same way. However in the interest of not repeating what’s already been said, I’ll go over why It all went wrong […]
Arsenal were brilliant yesterday, smashing Aston Villa 4-0 at Wembley in the F.A. Cup Final. Arsenal are now the 4th team in the history of the F.A. Cup to successfully defend the trophy, an outstanding achievement. Of course we have done it twice. This was also a totally different match to last year’s final vs. […]
Ahhhh yessss !!!!! Do Sunday mornings get any better than this? Bacon sizzling, each burp a reminder of the ridiculous amounts of drinks (first nerve settling ones, then elated celebratory ones, followed by ecstatic and a little bit smug ones), that were consumed yesterday. All the newspapers spread out in front of me, with happy […]
After some very frustrating matches this month against the likes of Swansea and Sunderland where we couldn’t break either sides down Theo’s recent inclusion has been very refreshing. I didn’t have the chance to post last week but a point I wanted to make was that West Brom took the same approach as Swansea & […]
