Crystal Palace vs. Arsenal – Premier League preview It’s north vs. south London on Sunday, and the media as usual term this a “London derby”. Yes, technically it’s accurate. We’re both in the same city, so we’re geographically close. However, derby to me denotes rivalry, hate, and animosity. This for us only applies to […]
It is 2018, Snowflake. Hi @Nacho-Monreal. My 6 year old son asked me, why you are called Nacho and do you promote unhealthy salted snacks. I said I don’t know and I don’t know. Maybe you should change you name to ‘Vegan Chia and Quinoa Flakes Monreal’. It is 2018, after all. Hi @AlexLacazette. My […]
Started off slow but out “Foxed” Leicester. This game showed a similar pattern to that of the Watford, Everton, and West Ham games. Leicester clearly had a game plan, which was to press us high up the pitch, and it worked to a good degree. Again, we started slow, and then grew into and […]
Winter is coming… There’s a bizarre feeling rippling out of its epicentre of N5 at the moment; “We’ve got our Arsenal back!” The above was sang in unison and gusto during the 5-1 win on the banks of the Thames last weekend. It might have upset some of the armchair followers of Arsenal who are […]
Headline #1… Contenders? That looked like a team uninterested in settling for Top 4. Looked like a serious team with top quality, work ethic, team spirit and a coach who has a nasty habit of making a difference with his decisions. Headline #2….. Have Arsenal discovered gold with new formation? 4-2-2-2 suited all the players. […]
Arsenal 2-0 Everton A clean sheet at last. Everton got stuck in Toffee, in the end….. Everton’s nickname is the Toffeemen since that part of Merseyside was noted for its toffee production. They started well and played well to boot, but they eventually got stuck in their own toffee, as we finally got […]
The Gunners notched their first away win this season, and made it two league wins on the trot in the process, but I think it will be fair to say the manner of the win raised more questions than it answered. Let’s get straight to it. Cech’s distribution is abysmal – again While it’s clear […]
At half time I often check the thoughts of a few on twitter. Emotions can cloud. Clive Palmer @clivepafc is becoming increasingly well respected and often has the pulse. Today my main thought concurred with his: in-game management needed to be improved. Emery makes statements at half time either with subs or obvious improvements. The […]
Hi everyone. We face Cardiff away this coming Sunday and the game will come as another test of our credentials. After an underwhelming, though somewhat expected, outcome of the first two games, the Gunners went on to win against West Ham. The performance was not ideal from what I have glimpsed, but at least we […]
First half…. an utter mess. Yet again the entire offensive 4 playing poorly all at once. The midfielders playing too slowly and positionally poor on defence. The back four left exposed yet making a litany of poor decisions. Cech keeps us in the game.. again. Second half… our biggest problem this season has been individuals […]
