The road to perfection An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I wasn’t sure if I was going to write about the first pre-season game. It feels harsh/unrealistic/unfair to analyze players on their first game back. Arteta’s Arsenal are different though. It is so much more than a fitness exercise. A first run-out. If ‘interesting’ […]
I’d rather be wrong An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I don’t know what the world is like where you live. Where I live it is safer and better than most it seems. I watch and read ‘the news’ too often. Well, Lori tells me I do anyway. She’s probably correct. I came to […]
There’s alot of frustration with the team this season despite the positive results in the PL and CL. The feeling that there’s something simply not clicking is simmering under and over the surface. I’m quietely satisfied with how the team is shaping up. I’m liking the control over vibes approach but I’m also not naive […]

Less Skyfall, more Goldfinger An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective For most of us, James Bond has been around our whole lives. I grew up with Roger Moore. He was my favorite. Probably because he was simply James Bond to me. I think I somewhat resented Sean Connery and Timothy Dalton. I felt bad […]

Thunder at the chess match An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective Well, I’m not sure about you, but I was about to weep into my vegetable soup if we didn’t beat this version of Manchester United. Especially the last 15 minute version with Harry Maguire and Johnny Evans playing centre back. A team with […]
