Well, here we are in what seems like Deja-vu territory, with another MUST win match, in another make or break for Mikel Arteta and Arsenal’s season. Having overcome the last two knockout rounds against Olympiacos and Benfica, the reward was, on paper at least and easier route to a potential final show down with Man […]
So, as Thursday approaches in what seems our most important game of the season so far we are left wondering what next based on the outcome from that game? Will an awkward reunion with Unai Emery be on the cards or will there be a need for the whole world to gobble us up as […]
Sometimes it’s not blame It’s so easy to look for blame. It feels good. It removes a part of the frustration as we pass it off. I’m more than happy to apportion blame when I think it’s deserved. I like to remain as emotionally stable as possible so as to not live in the world […]
Let’s face it, the past few days has not been up there with our best as Arsenal fans. We wait for 2 weeks to see our team, allow the anticipation and confidence to grow, as we await the visit of a faltering Liverpool, shorn of any proper centre backs and we are rewarded with an […]

In recent columns I have argued that Arsenal Skipper, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, can play the central role, in Arteta’s preferred, though flexible 4231. In my own mind I have been weighing up what he offers in the role and comparing it to what Lacazette offers and, in truth, trying to convince myself that our Gabonese […]
The nature of Arsenal’s season was perfectly summed up by their showing at the London Stadium, as their combination of inconsistency and brilliance saw them come from three goals down to draw with West Ham. If ever there was a game that could highlight not only the progress Arsenal have made since the turn of […]
Arsenal don’t but Arteta does POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES Mikel Arteta won’t feel like he walked away with a win yesterday. He didn’t. Yet, did he personally get a win? As the coach of the team he may never know or feel this personal victory but I’d imagine when he pauses he will realize, if […]
A week is a long time in football isn’t it? Last Thursday was according to many the biggest week of Arsenal’s season and make or break for the manager, Mikel Arteta. A week later, after a 3-1 win in Olympiakos and entirely outplaying the old enemy for 80 minutes and winning the North London Derby, […]
