The thought barely leaves me to be honest. How to Beat Chelsea As Arsenal exit a decade of self imposed austerity for me it’s always been about dispatching Liverpool and focussing on Chelsea. Ever since Roman arrived we have had to react to them. They manipulated the transfer market to suit their own affluence knowing […]

Ramsey to miss out in best midfield balance to beat Chelsea
I’m pretty sure that Andrea’s blog from yesterday about who will cover Chelsea’s main danger man and attacking threat Eden Hazard, due to the absence of Diego Costa, Drogba and Remy, was pretty much spot-on (I’d go with Debuchy at right-back and Cazorla at right midfield with the personnel available but Debuchy with Oxlade-Chamberlain would […]
No semi is easy – Team changes, impressive Reading and Martin Twatkinson made this one harder…
That was nerve-racking. Much more than any of us would have liked. After the game I rushed for my validol. I know a couple of my friends who rushed to pubs or their secret alcohol stashes to ease the pressure. But we made it into the final and, first and foremost, I want to clear up […]

8 on the bounce for The Arsenal as Coquelin shines but Bellerin “hits his wall”
Well, that was tough, much tougher than I expected. We took the points for the eighth consecutive game without really being troubled after we scored, but found chances hard to come by to double the lead. You can see why Burnley drew with Chelsea and United and took all three points against City at Turf […]
Who will be the third 15 goal a season player Wenger referred to? Or is there more than 1?
You smell that we can score goals. We did, Arsène. We did. Yet, we are looking for another 10-15 goals a season player. The manager himself said we need another body able to find the back of the net at least ten times a season; he didn’t specify he was thinking of a forward or a midfielder […]
With 23 fit to face LFC who makes your 11 and which 5 not even on the bench? #Squaddepth
The good news came in yesterday: Mathieu Débuchy, Mikel Arteta and Jack Wilshere are all ready to battle for a place in the squad that will face Liverpool on Saturday. With Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain ready to follow in their footsteps next week already, players are going to take internal competition to the next level: making at least […]
Why do the English Media despise Arsenal as much as they do whilst admiring others who are genuinely failing?
Everyone has the right to give their opinions, they are allowed to talk about it, to write about it and to share their thoughts to people in any way, be it a respectful way. Football in England is still, no doubt one of the best to watch in the world. The rivalry, the tenacity, the […]
Arsenal set to sign a New Winger – A Complete analysis of our current widemen reveals why.
You’ve read the heading and most likely said: “What an idiot. Everyone knows we need a screening midfielder, that world-class striker we’ve been promised, probably a world-class goalkeeper, maybe another centre-back but definitely no mention of a winger. What is this guy even thinking?” Well, read on. I’m not saying we don’t need these players […]
2 Different Arsenals get a result where the 1 Old Arsenal would not have
Hello everyone. The last round of games before the international break took place this weekend and, truth be told, I’m a little relieved there will be no games for the next two weeks. The build-up to matches with rallying cries from managers and players alike, nerves spiking during games themselves and a short respite after […]
