Doppelpass I want to take this week’s blog to talk about international Gooners and the friendship among them. As German Gooner on the road, I mentioned in several Tweets that I spent last weekend in wonderful Ireland/Northern Ireland. What a lovely place to visit, and how many lovely people to chat about Arsenal and footy […]
66 Kicks Germany is a great nation and has given the world so much, but perhaps unfairly in the modern era has developed a reputation for seriousness and efficiency. This week an illustrious panel of the great and the good of German cultural society, politics and academia have sprung a surprise on the world in […]
Anti Social-Media Behaviour Well hello there shiny happy people, that you all seem to be since the arrival of you know who, and the realisation that all the time, the manager and the board seem to have actually been telling the truth, ahh the bliss. I say return, for as those of you who have […]
Season Diary Well this week was obviously dominated by the debut of whatshisname, after a build-up of what seemed like a couple of months. This is a diary however, and rather than sit around scratching my backside all week waiting for Saturday I have a build-up of my own, so let me take you through […]
Matt’s Match Review Arsenal made it three wins on the bounce and temporarily (at least) sit at the top of the Premier League after a 3-1 away victory against Sunderland yesterday.

Ry’s Match Previews The Transfer Window has slammed shut. It went to the wire again this year for us. Having signed only Mathieu Flamini and Yaya Sanogo on a free, the press and many of us were on Arsene Wenger’s back to spend money and strengthen the squad. He spent big money on Mesut Özil, […]
Michael Jeffares Column So Mesut Özil is a Gunner, he’s a Gunner and I get to see his debut tomorrow against Sunderland. I CANNOT WAIT. I’ve eagerly awaited some Arsenal debuts but this is certainly right up, straight in at number two, behind you know who – Dennis Bergkamp. Michael JeffaresI’m a 30 something year […]
Weekly Education Having been away for a while and not having ample time to write, I felt obliged to throw my hat into the ring – regarding the transfer of Mesut Özil to Arsenal. I see this as more than just a signing. I see it as a symbol for an ernest approach in the […]
Doppelpass Deadline day was more than a week ago but the Mesut Özil hype is still up and running. With the Ö, or Umlaut as we call it should be named best, used feature on Twitter and the shirt sales gone straight through the roof, there was a notable relief when the internationals were done […]
Gunners Town Top 5 The international breaks seem to come at a strange time, and on this occasion, an annoying one.
