Did Emery replace our defence with a sieve? This may surprise some, but I think our display wasn’t all bad at Anfield. This ground is an odd one for us – we’ve had some immense highs (1989) and deep lows. This has to go along with the lows. We created chances in some […]
Arsenal were everything …. Positives, Needs and Hopes Energy gives attitude Attitude gives belief Belief gives confidence Confidence gives hope Somebody asked me last week what the major change has been this season. I said, ‘hope.’ If we are losing I have hope that we will turn it around. If we lose I still have […]
Us versus Them The North London Derby We’re heading to the first of two North London Derbies in quick succession. This one on Sunday will be in the league, with the latter of course in the League Cup. It’s always a momentous occasion when we play our “good friends” from the Borough of Haringey. Our […]
We got a good win at Bournemouth, and my match review prediction was right. But I’m not here to just big myself up. Bournemouth started the game well and had an offside goal ruled out, but the TV cameras showed that it was not offside after all. We possibly got lucky there, but Bournemouth also […]
ARSENAL 1-1 WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS PREMIER LEAGUE REVIEW – 11TH NOV. 2018 Even though today was Remembrance Day and the 100th anniversary of the end of WWI, this performance wasn’t one to remember. Due to a mix of a sound Wolves game plan, poor passing from Arsenal, and attacking ineptitude, Arsenal could only scrape a draw […]
3 decisive moments…. Positives, Needs and Hopes Well, that wasn’t easy but that’s good for us. Will help us prepare for more difficult games. Three decisive moments decided the outcome. Mr. Rash had obviously been missing his close relationship with the grass and so decided to make a visit via whacking Kouyate. How long will […]
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. […]
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 […]
Stephan Lichtsteiner, Bernd Leno, Sokratis Papasthatopoulos and Lucas Torreira in; Jack Wilshere, Santi Cazorla and surely a few more – David Ospina, Lucas Pérez, Carl Jenkinson and Joel Campbell – out. While transfers still represent a big part of the talk surrounding the Arsenal, I would draw your attention to a couple of players who […]
