Love Exhausted, Love Alive POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES An Arsenal Blog from a Coachʻs Perspective Love has many faces. No one place is it more tested than at home. Marriage and kids bring out every emotion but ultimately they are all wrapped in love. Somewhere behind family comes sport. If you are attached and invested […]
I’ve been watching Nuno Tavares closely in France and he’s not going to come back as a player whose weaknesses will disappear because of the role given. Still the same Nuno, threatening upfield but not safe. An asset to boost funds which is fine. An advantage of the loan system. We have Sousa coming through […]
Good day to the Arsenal Community! We are all massively pumped with the way Arsenal brushed aside the “mighty” Tottenham. From the 1st minute till the last, barring only a small spell of around 10 minutes, Arsenal absolutely battered them all over the park. Its fair to say that we outplayed them just like we […]
We’ve had a great start to the season, admittedly we’ve had a fairly favourable run (at least compared to recent seasons) but it has been majestic nonetheless. We are playing with a level of control back to front I have never seen before in an Arsenal team. We look maturer and more confident than last […]
The 71st minute POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES By Coach Mike McDonald This season has been a new thing. There are so many new and happy things for Arsenal to feel good about. The atmosphere, the energy, the feel good factor, the belief, the consistency, the quiet hope of challenging and possibly winning the Premier League, […]
THE North London Derby is unlike any match and as any Gooner will tell you the anticipation felt ahead of the game is unique. There is excitement of course but it is more than tempered by a nervous energy which makes the build-up almost painful. It is a cliche to say that form goes out […]
Here we go again, well respected (not) pundit, ex professional footballer (barely), Jason Cundy (Google him if you’ve never heard of him), has laid into Arteta regarding Ethan Nwaneri. According to Cundy (would love to replace the D with a T!!!), it’s all about Arteta’s ego and not Ethan’s ability. Cun?y talking on TalkSport, to […]
Only Arsenal know POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES People are really starting to notice Arsenal. The stubborn ones say that we’ve had an easy start. The people that pay closer attention note that there is barely an easy game in the entire league whether home or away. Brentford were unbeaten at home including a 5-2 win […]
Is there even a Top 6 in the Premier League any more? A look at the table after only 6 games might give one pause for thought. Yes – I know itʻs a pretty small sample size, but some of the results have been pretty shocking. As you will see below, the league has thrown up […]
Queen Elizabeth was a Gooner POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I never had the privilege of meeting the Queen but I did see her once. Crossing the road outside Buckingham Palace a policeman stopped us as a black car pulled out. The window went down and there she was ❤️ I also remember going to Windsor Castle […]
