Try hard, Jamie O’Hara, playing to the Talksport listener base and his clearly biased roots, again. “Very few people get the opportunity to represent their country. For Ben White to turn that down because he doesn’t want to sit on the bench or because he doesn’t like watching football? I’m sorry, but I think you’re […]
I thought as we haven’t any Arsenal games until we play Manchester City on Easter Sunday I’d have a bit of fun by looking at the present team who in my opinion are the best side we’ve had since the Invincibles and comparing the two sides and seeing how many of the present team I […]
‘When the chips stood up’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective Chips confuse me. They’d confuse you if you’d spent half your life in England and half in the States. I actually had a conversation the other day about why Cheetos and Wotsits are trying to be the same thing but because the US […]
‘Not far from the end of the book’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective There is a book…. A book that only one man sees. It resides in Mikel Arteta’s back pocket. He only lets his coaching staff see it a chapter at a time. He only lets his players learn from it one […]

In this edition we look back on Wednesday’s clash against Lens in the Champions League. HIGHLIGHT Paul Hepker: Havertz opening the floodgates: 4 goals in 14 minutes, 6 goals from six different goalscorers. A joy to behold. Thomas Bahnson: Has to be the Havertz goal. It just feels so big when he succeeds. The biggest […]
When George met Arsene An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective Poor me. It was half way through the second half and I was complaining. Sat here in Jamaica under a cabana with live service to watch my team playing. A week of relaxation in front of me and Lori wanders past in her bikini to […]
The habit of winning An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective. So as you may know, I’m a Brit from Hertfordshire that unexpectedly met a beautiful Tennesseean in 1998. I’ve lived in Tennessee ever since. Living in the US is similar and different to the UK. Both. One of the differences in the circles that […]
