West Ham United vs. Arsenal Premier League preview We travel across London to the London Stadium near Stratford, for the first of two London games this week. West Ham was unlucky not to get something from the game at our place in September. We won 3-1, but this scoreline flattered us to […]
Does Mesut Ozil do it in the big games? Mesut Ozil, our once record signing, is a divisive figure amongst us fans. Nobody, really, questions his innate quality. In raw technical terms, only perhaps Dennis Bergkamp or Santi Cazorla can surpass him. However, he is not as consistent as he could be, and in […]
Arsenal 3-1 Burnley review This early kick-off was a chance to get a win after the Scum and Southampton defeats. And we got this, though it wasn’t all plain sailing. Burnley started in the relegation zone, and for this reason alone it was never going to be easy. Sokratis returned, and Elneny started as […]
Arsenal vs. Huddersfield Town – Premier League preview We have another instalment of the Herbert Chapman “Derby” – since the great manager had successful spells at both clubs. He won the league three times in a row at Huddersfield and then commenced our great era in the 1930s. Moreover, this fixture has irony […]
Where does Ozil fit in the new Arsenal system? Subjectivity is one of the most important things when being a writer or covering sports for any format, sadly certain papers or pundits disagree with that but I think anyone worth their salt will, or should agree. The reason I started with the last statement is, […]
Arsenal points of interest – 27th Nov. 2018 Should the club sell Mkhitaryan? Whilst many of us are naturally content with the 2-1 win vs. Bournemouth, Mkhitaryan’s performance brought much thinking and musing amongst fans. I’m a fan of the podcast by Gooner Eagle Eye on Youtube and Twitter, in which he features […]
I’m happy with this game, and our performance in it. We didn’t win, granted. But then Liverpool is a serious team now and is further down the cycle from us in terms of challenging for and winning leagues. They certainly have had better transfer windows than us of late, and have brought in better […]
Under a sunny Swiss sky in 2008, at a café near Basel, Arsène Wenger made his pitch. And a young, 17-year-old Welshman listened. Six years later, Aaron Ramsey delivered Arsenal their first trophy since 2005. Ramsey is all that remains Wenger’s British core; a generation of players whose moments of brilliance form a collage of […]
After a pair of impressive performances, Alex Iwobi is forcing Unai Emery to consider him for Arsenal’s starting eleven. Colton PraillA Canadian video journalist, Colton Praill is quick with a pen or a microphone. He’s a podcaster, writer and visual storyteller covering Arsenal, English football and the world around him.
…aaaaaand we are back to square one. Three games into a new season, with a new head coach and five new faces added to the team and all I see is fans’ unrest. All the nice pre-season talk about getting behind the new head coach and the team seems gone already, the good vibes […]
