It’s Wednesday, Gooners. We should all have recovered from our wild celebrations following the FA Cup triumph, I believe; I have, anyway. I must admit it was easier for me, let me explain why. I enjoyed this win as much as you all did, I was impressed by our amazing performance and I […]

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 […]
Has Mr.Theodore James Walcott given Monsieur Arsene Wenger a Selection headache, along with Wilshere as Santi pulls the strings
The Premier League season drew to a close yesterday and some of the results were, how shall I put it, quite unexpected. Aside from us thrashing West Brom (I think even the most optimistic of us couldn’t predict such a scoreline), we have: Burnley beating Aston Villa away despite being relegated long before the game, […]
Result & Performance v West Brom now CRITICAL – We need lay down a marker to frighten Aston Villa
Despite more or less nailing third place, the West Brom game has become massively important. Not because it’s a chance to use some squad players and rest our big guns, and not because it’s our last home game of the season, but because we need to show Aston Villa that their game plan won’t work. […]
Time to rest Ramsey, Sanchez, Cazorla and Giroud all dead on their feet against Sunderland – But for who? MOZART Please!
If you came here today to see me bemoan the dropped points, you can turn right around because I won’t. I probably would have done that had we lost, but when your team attacks for 90 minutes out of 95, manages 28 shots and has 76% possession, well, that’s what I call an effort and […]
This is how Arsenal will beat Chelsea – Turn their ‘Strength into their Weakness.’
The thought barely leaves me to be honest. How to Beat Chelsea As Arsenal exit a decade of self imposed austerity for me it’s always been about dispatching Liverpool and focussing on Chelsea. Ever since Roman arrived we have had to react to them. They manipulated the transfer market to suit their own affluence knowing […]

8 on the bounce for The Arsenal as Coquelin shines but Bellerin “hits his wall”
Well, that was tough, much tougher than I expected. We took the points for the eighth consecutive game without really being troubled after we scored, but found chances hard to come by to double the lead. You can see why Burnley drew with Chelsea and United and took all three points against City at Turf […]
Are Arsenal over-reliant on Özil for the creative impetus and is this a concern??
After watching most of Arsenal’s recent matches, I’ve started pondering as to whether Arsenal are over-reliant on Mesut Özil and, to a lesser extent, Alexis Sanchez, to provide the main creative impetus for the team going forwards. It seems that the majority of attacks come from a Özil pass or a defensive clearance from […]
Walcott is not competing with Welbeck or Ox for his place in the team but with Alexis Sanchez
Inside Forward vs Wide Midfielder I came across loads of debates concerning Theo Walcott’s involvement in the starting XI, or lack of it shall I say. The majority of us are speculating on why that may be the case, whether it’s due to the stalling of contract negotiations, recent form etc… None of us will […]
