I’m not going to talk about transfers, please revert to the very needed and classy Media Watch section on Arsenal’s website for that. Don’t be misled by the title then, the whole point of this blog is trying to understand how Arsène Wenger sees the Arsenal going into next season. We were all happy with […]

At least 2, Mert and Giroud, not good enough for the Arsenal Spine – Hard Hitting Truths
Transfer season is upon us and the rumours have begun. We’re being linked with all sorts of player across Europe and it has got the more naive supporters anxious. Some are more relaxed and some are convinced we don’t need to add much, at all if anything. I have to strongly disagree. If we’re happy with […]
“I said last year that Arsene Wenger wasn’t top class – I was wrong Wenger is TOP CLASS!”
In November of last year I wrote a blog which the editors here at Gunners Town titled ‘Arsene Wenger is not top class anymore’, which was as accurate a reflection of the piece as you could get. It wasn’t a reactionary rant about another painful loss, (it was after we blew 3 goal lead to […]
Why Arsenal were so good at making Villa bad – Sherwood out thought, his players out fought!
So much has already been said about the Cup Final, but I just don’t get tired of reading about how glorious we were on Saturday, and I’m guessing that most Arsenal fans feel the same way. However in the interest of not repeating what’s already been said, I’ll go over why It all went wrong […]
Relief, Belief, Joy and an Emotional Post Cup Final Win Out Pouring of #GlobalGoonerPassion
Where do I begin? What do I talk about? Ozil’s touches, gliding, passes? Theo’s reverse pass for Monreal? Sanchez’s screamer? The chuffed expression on Mertesacker’s face after his goal? Coquelin not putting…no…our defensive unit not putting a foot wrong? Santi being Santi? It was SUCH a commanding performance it was a little underwhelming! Unless you’re […]
Now THAT Is How You Play A Cup Final! – The complete team performance
Arsenal were brilliant yesterday, smashing Aston Villa 4-0 at Wembley in the F.A. Cup Final. Arsenal are now the 4th team in the history of the F.A. Cup to successfully defend the trophy, an outstanding achievement. Of course we have done it twice. This was also a totally different match to last year’s final vs. […]
Media left Red faced as Arsenal let them down by being Brilliant! – Wenger shows his CLASS “I love him and will be forever grateful.”
Ahhhh yessss !!!!! Do Sunday mornings get any better than this? Bacon sizzling, each burp a reminder of the ridiculous amounts of drinks (first nerve settling ones, then elated celebratory ones, followed by ecstatic and a little bit smug ones), that were consumed yesterday. All the newspapers spread out in front of me, with happy […]
With ‘Lorry off his back’ Arteta and Arsenal will announce decision on his future after Cup Final
So here is my final article from Arsenal’s FA Cup Final Media day on Wednesday which covers the interview with Club Captain, Mikel Arteta. I have always thought him a fine example to all professional footballers and the time listening to him only reinforced my view. What a guy to be quite frank and the […]

Walcott, Rosicky and Wilshere in with Giroud, Cazorla and Ramsey out for final?
Having followed Arsenal since the late 1990s, I have seen a lot of success come our way. I was fortunate enough to see many of Arsenal’s top players of the day on TV playing and winning important fixtures in that time, like Dennis Bergkamp, Tony Adams, Marc Overmars, Ray Parlour, Patrick Vieira… the list goes […]
