Considered Cohen With the recent signing of Yaya Sanogo, and the discussion about Gonzalo Higuain and Wayne Rooney, it’s pretty easy to see where Arsene Wenger views needed improvements- in the striker/central forward role.

Have Arsenal learned from Barca – creating a modern Super Club
Anti Social-Media Behaviour It’s that time of year again, when we see the mass migration of “fans” from the “Arsene’s a wanker” and “Gazidis is a mong”, “what are they paid for?” camps over to the “Arsene’s a genius”, “Gazidis is playing a blinder”, “I told you so” camp. (you could do this in Attenborough’s […]
Ray Parlour = Mathieu Flamini = Aaron Ramsey and Arsene Wenger loves Perpetual Motion and Defensive Possession
Mr. T’s Nuts During the invincible season Arsenal were completely dominant in midfield, which owed much to the world class talent we had the time.

Arteta overlooked again for Confederations Cup disgrace
La Liga Vibes On bank holiday Monday, Vicente Del Bosque picked his 26-man squad for the Confederations Cup.
