No Jack, Rambo or Giroud? My ideal starting 11 for 2015/16 Think I can speak for the general population of Arsenal fans that I am genuinely optimistic about the team going in to the 2015/16 season. The squad is the finest it’s arguably been in my lifetime – not even the Invincible’s had the quality […]

Wenger must EVOLVE trusted and multiple PARTNERSHIPS to allow TACTICAL ROTATION
We can all smell it – He can smell it – We are on the verge. It’s now about execution and belief. What does Arsene do now? He has this new wonderful team that is fluid, intelligent and technically arrogant – but also starting to show the mentality required to win. But football has changed. […]
Arsene’s lack of transfer activity should be cheered by Arsenal fans – ‘Victoria Concordia Crescit’
Yesterday’s Press Conference (Telegraph agrees with AW) “I believe we have the quality, and it’s now about how much we can be stronger together,” he said. “We have to move forward together, which for me it is more important than dreaming about finding a miraculous player who wins you everything.” Arsène Wenger’s apparent inactivity in […]
We can win the league even without further additions – Chelsea did it with less
“We are not going to challenge unless we buy a DM and that world-class striker. Giroud is not good enough to win us the league, while we are one injury away from using Arteta whose legs have gone”. Apparently Arteta’s legs have left Colney in Diaby’s pockets on his way out, but I’m not here […]
Sorry Aaron but Santi Cazorla, Arsenal’s ‘Hidden Leader’ is the Key to our success and title challenge
When you think of the term leader and Arsenal football club, who are the first names that spring to mind? The aptly named ‘Bosscielny’? The Renaissance man that is Francis Coquelin? Alexis Sanchez? I suppose the Chilean did figuratively ‘carry’ the team in the latter stages of 2014, and we thank our mercurial master for […]
Is Further Spending now the key to Arsenal’s Premier League Success in 2015/16?
17th May 2014. The time is 17:08. Arsenal, looking for their first trophy win in nine years are 2-0 at Hull after eight minutes. Thoughts turned to the Carling Cup Final three years earlier, when Birmingham broke Arsenal hearts. However, back in 2014, 90 minutes and extra time later at Wembley, Arsenal had won the […]
Arsenal will be celebrating St Totterngham’s Day even earlier this season!
When will we celebrate St Totteringham’s Day? St Totterngham’s Day Dictionary Definition – The phrase has been around for so long it is in the book! St Totteringham’s Day is the day when Arsenal fans celebrate the fact that Tottenham can no longer catch Arsenal in the League. It is a movable feast, but usually […]
The rotation of Cazorla/Wilshere and Ramsey/Ox holds the key to success in 15/16
Arsenal’s 2014/2015 season in many ways has flirted with stability and merited praise. Aside recording back to back cup success, it has ensured sustainability in the team’s form, which sprung to life in the wake of the 2-0 win at the Etihad in January. This could be down to the change in approach (from controlling […]
The Transfer Window is open and Arsenal’s Business is concluded
Yay, Gooners, the transfer window is open! Too bad we already finished our business by signing Petr Čech… Yes, I do believe our squad is complete already: we added a reliable, experienced and the points-winning goalkeeper we have been lacking since David Seaman. The Czech will provide some extra security to our back line and […]
Ozil does not need to be the Arsenal Number 10 to use the space that a 10 Exploits
My axe first came to be ground shortly after England’s exit in Brazil during the World Cup when a national news station claimed England’s failings were due to a lack of a number 10! I then got further angst when the Arsenal twitterverse jumped on the #playOzil@10 bandwagon. I was finally forced to the power […]
