Gabriel “Ballon d’Or” Martinelli? – not ‘if’ but ‘when’ – all the pieces are in place for Arsenal

Gabriel Ballon d’Or Martinelli. OKAY, Hear me out. Gabriel Martinelli is not a traditional winger. And he isn’t (yet) a proper striker. What is he then, you ask?

Frustration, frustration, frustration! At Newcastle, at match officials, and at Arteta’s lack of game-changers

Well, that was a hugely frustrating match. In fact, frustration is my overwhelming emotion after being held to a goalless draw at home by, let’s not forget, a Champion’s League challenging team, in Newcastle.

‘He wasn’t there’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective I’m writing and scrolling through social media at the same time here. Everybody seems to have the same opinion. That we needed somebody from the bench to change the game. Funnily enough I think that this would’ve been only half the solution. Maybe it would’ve […]
