Wembleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey! What an uplifting feeling it is to play another FA Cup final in May, the third in the last four years. It’s been fantastic to see Rob Holding handle his Wembley debut with such composure, to see Gabriel offering us his best Martin Keown impression, to see Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain put in a cherry of […]
Plenty has been written about Arsene Wenger over the last two decades of his tenure at The Arsenal and I daresay more will be said over the decades that follow his departure, whenever that may be. As most people are aware his successes on the field came within the first decade where he awoke a […]
Well, it has certainly been a while since I last wrote. Such a while that I’m not sure it should be called a diary anymore, because if there were a blogging version of the Trade Description Act I would be hauled before the Office of Fair Blogging for being in breach of the Blog Description […]
Three so called easy games but only seven points collected, so what went wrong? Our run of three games in eight days, got off to a slow start, with a disappointing first half display against West Brom. Thankfully in the second half, the players upped the tempo by moving the ball quicker and we began […]
Well, this last week has been so much better than the previous, hasn’t it? Two wins, two clean sheets and some very commanding and entertaining football played in the process. Oh, and we’ve moved into third, leapfrogging Manchester City. I was a bit surprised by team selection, however it proved highly efficient as the game […]
The words “at least we didn’t lose” have been used far too regularly by some Arsenal supporters, following last Sunday’s draw with Spurs. Should we not all be disappointed that we failed to win the game rather than be relieved that we didn’t lose it? Prior to kick off, we had won ten of our […]
A common theme seems to be occurring with myself and Arsenal signings, which is I know very little about them. So as with Xhaka and Elneny I’ve looked at the stats behind the man to try and infer what kind of player were getting, unfortunately stats have zero bearing on centre backs so Mustafi and […]
I’m sorry Arsene but Alexis does not address the elephant in the room and will not keep Stan that extra £50m extra in the bank. Sanchez is not a number 9. Not that he’s not good enough, far from it. He wants to be involved, he wants to create. Because he is not getting […]
On a beautiful august day Arsenals premier league charge began, and after a block buster 90 minutes cautious optimism gave way to full scale meltdown. A four three defeat against Liverpool left the long suffering emirates faithful with an all too familiar feeling. Let down by a side underprepared, undercooked and undermanned. The disappointment comes […]
So if the recent stories are to be believed, Julian Draxler is on the late night flugzeug from Berlin and will be on the physio table at London Colney tomorrow and if all goes to plan, he will provide the balance on the right wing to compliment Alex on the left, allow Iwobi the […]
