This topic stems from the scouting video the Arsenal Vision crew made on Osimhen. I looked forward to watching it as I hold them and Victor both in high regard. But I came out of it feeling conflicted about what I saw. I came out of it thinking he is a deeply flawed footballer that […]
In this edition we look back on Saturday’s clash against Sheffield United at the Emirates. HEADLIGHT Steve Wellman: Apart from the obvious, 3 shots (on target), 3 goals from Eddie, the performances of Smith-Rowe and Havertz in the 8/10 roles. Without standing out, they both did what was needed and provided the links to the […]
How much is enough to consider the sale of a young striker as a sound piece of business? With Folarin Balogun reportedly leaving for Monaco for a fee in the region of £ 40m, fans seem to be divided between those who say that we should have kept him ahead of Eddie Nketiah and those […]
Five minutes in February An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I’ve recently started writing music. Well, I can’t sing or play anything so it’s probably poetry until someone turns it into what the world expects from music which I suppose is music.

Traffic Engineer, Arsenal ST Holder, Sun […]
New Arsenal 2 Old Arsenal 1 Positives, Needs and Hopes It was the 57th minute. There I am sitting with Max and my wife in the Hops ‘n Holler Arsenal pub in Knoxville, Tennessee. I was struggling to get a feel for what the problem was in the game. […]
Lucozade and lemon drops I always try to base my opening piece on what I think is the general feeling coming out of the game. The general feeling coming out of that game for me and most I think, was that yet again I soiled my britches and I feel like Arsenal need to give […]
