Rumours of Benzema joining seem to be growing by the day and whilst I am sceptical of how valid all of this may be, I’m quite excited by the prospect. I have to say that there’s not a single striker in Europe more suitable to our needs right now than Benzema. This doesn’t mean he’s […]

Arsenal have a history of ‘WOW’ Signings but who will be the next to WOW us?
I felt the urge to write about the signings The Arsenal have made that really made all Arsenal fans & the media sit up and take notice. The big signings that had that wow factor. There were some before my time such as Charlie Buchan, David Jack, Alex James and Bryn Jones. Also George Eastham, […]
Özil’s time to shine – the stars align for our German wizard.
Ozil looks ready to take the Premier League by storm It was one of the biggest transfers in the history of our football club, a deadline day acquisition which had the whole Premier League in shock. Arsenal for once had flexed some financial clout in the market and signed arguably the finest playmaker in the […]
The Ox and Ramsey impress; youngsters shine and what squad harmony is all about
Not much else happening at the moment, so I decided to go ahead and give you my thoughts on the Emirates Cup weekend. We’ve won the Cup by grabbing two wins, conceding no goals and producing a smashing performance against Lyon. One which spelled an end to Arsenal fans’ ongoing “buy Lacazette for 35 million” […]
Does Wenger secretly believe he can reunite Ozil and Benzema this window?
Well, Arsène Wenger doesn’t seem to be very busy these days; a non-newsflash which could easily create anxiety and worry but instead of sending me straight to a complete meltdown, actually does generate some anticipation and expectation – which are totally unjustified. When I see the man avoiding questions about transfers or drop enigmatic replies, […]
No Rambo. Wilshere or Giroud in my starting 11 as this is the year of Theo!
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 […]
