Having just been asked to write my newspaper column on which of the current Arsenal squad we should ‘Keep, Loan or Sell’ it is very clear to me that Arteta and his staff have a huge task ahead of them in the Transfer Window, made that much harder because they know they need to sell […]
To shine in the centre forward role, there are more attributes that managers look for in a player in today’s game. Goal scoring is certainly fundamental but hold up play, and the ability to link midfield and attack is just as important. Eventually, I believe Arteta wants to play a 4-3-3 system, with two attacking […]
Ever since Aubameyang’s arrival in North London, the 31-year old has been the Gunners main source of goals, scoring 70 times and providing 15 assists in 109 games (the most of any Premier League player since his debut) which is even more impressive considering the dysfunctional and inconsistent nature of our current team, coupled with […]
Following our glorious win at Wembley, the salt from opposing fans has been very grand. So much salt that fish and chip shops and Walkers would be happy and well-stocked for a long-time. Arsenal dominates online chatter most of the time, but we did go into overdrive on Saturday and rightly so. But there were […]
The win was glorious, no doubt. But like in 2017, we need more. KSE, as our “esteemed” owner, needs to facilitate more in us to push us to the next level. Arteta did in eight months that Spurs haven’t in 29 years.We had the chance to build, and we didn’t take it. And now, […]
The transfer window officially opened last Monday, and as Mikel Arteta begins to make his plans for the future, one man who seems certain not to be a part of them is Mesut Ozil. Relations between the two have gotten so bad that the luminous blonde mane of academy youngster Mathew Smith was chosen on […]
Tactical masterclass from Mikel Arteta! Six months into his managerial career, he has already managed to win his first piece of silverware. There were so many positive elements to our performance. Let’s dive into it Similar systems, but different levels of performance Both teams matched each other up in terms of the 3-4-3 system. Arteta […]
What did 2020 ever do for us? It’s been a facked up year, but when things are hard, there’s always a learning opportunity to be had. Here’s what I learnt from 2020. A decent, thoughtful manager, makes a shed load of difference After all these years, our defence is still pants! […]
So it’s here – a potential record 14th FA Cup is in the waiting. Certain clubs haven’t won an FA Cup in nearly thirty years. We know better! Let’s show them what clubs of true standing exist for – winning. We’ve won two previous FA Cup finals vs. Chelsea – 2002 and 2017. […]
This Saturday’s final seems to have similarities to last year’s horror show in Baku. Chelsea came into the final last year under no pressure since champions league qualification was already secured. The impetus was on us as only a win in Baku would be enough to secure a place in Europe’s most elite competition. We […]
