Much of the Arsenal chat of late has revolved around the effectiveness of our recent Premier League lineups featuring the high-profile front 3 of Lacazette, Ozil, and Alexis. In their first competitive fixture together they displayed the cohesion of a far more experienced attack line as they combined for 3 goals and 2 assists in […]
By James Howson (Gunners Town Scout) Over the years Arsenal have had some of the best centre backs in English football, players like David O’Leary, Sol Campbell, Tony Adams. Of recent times Laurent Koscielny has been a key figure at the back but although he’s been a top performer, Arsenal have struggled to be as […]
The Koscielny conundrum You see the problem with hitting a chav with a glass bottle is, you smash your glass. This is also a problem for Arsene Wenger when it comes to club captain Laurent Koscielny, the more you use him, the more he gets injured. Laurent Koscielny has been at Arsenal for over seven […]
Arsenal vs. Chelsea – 6th August 2017 – Wembley Stadium So it’s the first (kind of) official game of the season, where we play our West London city neighbours at Wembley. This summer has been….well average, in my opinion. Lacazette is a plus, as is Kolasinac. Sanchez staying (even if it’s for just a […]
This is a massive summer for Arsenal Football Club. Vital decisions will be made in regards to front office, coaching staff, and player profile that should change the complexion of our organization as we know it. This transitionary period could well decide if we are on the precipice of constant Europa league mediocrity or evolving […]
So, that’s it then. Over and done with the Premier League until August. I’d like to say I won’t miss it, but I will. We have hit form in the last ten games, which made the end of the season quite enjoyable. I wouldn’t mind if the season ended in February/March, however now I […]
So, West Ham didn’t do us any favours on Sunday and were comprehensively thrashed by Liverpool. Lazy bastards. Probably still hold a grudge for the two beatings we dished out to them. In all honesty though, this situation is ours fault, and ours alone. Just think about it: of the 36 games we’ve dropped points […]
To the Mordor we go today, and it’s fair to say I’d prefer most other places to Stoke at a crucial time like this. But beggars can’t be choosers. A win will put us within a point of Liverpool, who visit the Hammers on Sunday, heaping pressure in Klopp’s men to perform. I do not […]
The stats don’t lie A rework of Example’s 2011 tune ‘Skies don’t lie’ Possession high Passes run dry Seasons die And the stats don’t lie This basically sums it all up !!!!! Possession: 23% vs 77% Passes: 224 vs 743 Score: 3 – 1 3 times the possession, 3 times the passes, -3 times the […]
Rejoice, Gooners, our key players have renewed their contracts! No, I’m not talking about either Mesut Özil or Alexis Sánchez as their new contracts are still up in the air and there’s no sign either they will pen new deals anytime soon. There’s a huge debate ongoing about what the Club should do to keep […]
