Saka too young for England For those questioning why other young players are being selected for Southgate’s England, perhaps such as Foden or Greenwood, ahead of our own revelation Bukayo Saka, I say be careful what you wish for. When you question the elevation of Ainsley Maitland-Niles over Saka, just rewind a few weeks and […]
Season of Surprises – Crystal Ball 20/21…. Asking the GT readers (Part 1) For the first time in a generation I’m very excited about an Arsenal season. Fans feed on belief and Mikel Arteta is obliging. To preview the season, I thought it would be fun to ask the Gunners Town readers for your opinion […]
Chelsea’s season came to an end last night as they lost 4-1 to Bayern Munich in the Champions League. 7-1 on aggregate. After scrolling through hilarious memes suggested Frank Lampard’s side change their new shirt sponsors from 3 to 7-Up my thoughts quickly turned to Willian. If reports are to be believed the Brazilian is […]
What did 2020 ever do for us? It’s been a facked up year, but when things are hard, there’s always a learning opportunity to be had. Here’s what I learnt from 2020. A decent, thoughtful manager, makes a shed load of difference After all these years, our defence is still pants! […]

Initially I was underwhelmed with Mikel’s appointment. I felt the owner and recruitment team would be able to dictate his every move, being a typical ‘yes’ man. But from his very first interview, my confidence that he can deliver at this great club is slowly growing. Tricky opening fixtures Without a doubt, the Christmas period […]
Arteta’s Arsenal shows physicality and strength in depth to beat Wolves Arsenal gave that extra 10 percent needed for victory against Wolves, as they beat an in form side boasting three wins in their last three matches 2-0. Critics might argue that Wolves were not at their best, but it was the Gunner’s defensive discipline […]
Is it now Lacazette to Lacagoals? Has our once record singing been a flop? Is it time for him to go? Alexandre Lacazette has been an enigmatic player at Arsenal. He joined in the summer of 2017, and at last, we had a top striker to seemingly replace Giroud and outdo Danny […]
PL Project Restart has been an interesting one for us. City away was always a tall order. Brighton away should have been a win. Southampton away was hard-fought and well won. And at Sheffield United in the Cup, we rode our luck badly but then another game vs. City resulted. Amidst this, we’re having our […]
