There are times when 140 characters just won’t do. Right now, as the Spurs fans you forgot you knew suddenly appears back into your life, I have moved on from ‘they deserved it’ emotion to ‘Arsenal why did you let this happen’ emotion? I did not think I needed reminding, but we should never let […]

Is Tottenham away a BIG game like City, United or Chelsea or not Monseiur Wenger?
Good Wednesday Gooners in this is the week leading to the North London Derby! A very brief conversation I had yesterday with our dear Dave (@goonerdave66) and his consequent article inspired me for this week’s blog. The question I have been asking myself is this: Is Tottenham at White Hart Lane a big away game, […]
Is it Crazy to say this Arsenal squad could win the Premier League? Maybe Not!
“Arsenal don’t have any squad depth!” That must be the reason why today it’s virtually impossible to pick a starting XI without leaving out one or two excellent players. Mesut Özil and Theo Walcott made their comebacks recently, Aaron Ramsey did the same a bit earlier while, with perfect timing, Santi Cazorla, Tomas Rosicky and […]
Arsenal on course to replace Giroud? A new gunners CF…
While everyone was concerned with which defensive midfielder Arsene was going to get in the summer, I always found time to conduct some extensive research on who could improve our attack; a forward to be precise, but not necessarily a target man. I had so many names, but few were elite-level as the creme of […]
Ahead of City today continuity is surely the key – Who’d have thought it would be Coquelin plus 1?
As the Premier league champions await us on a tricky away trip to City, it’s key that we look to get something out the game to really get our season rolling for the 800th time. Personally I try to no longer get my hopes up for games against the big teams because so many times […]
Bouldie sat them all down and our Christmas present is 1 Nil to the Arsenal
Captain’s Log star date nearly Christmas. Spock says he has no emotion, and that I should bother buying him anything, but he said the same thing last year and when I didn’t get him a gift the Vulcan pinched me in the balls. 3 wins in a row, but more importantly, 3 clean sheets. A lots has […]
Is Arsenal’s Defence truly that bad or is it the goals for that should cause concern?
Yesterday I was having a chat via Twitter with a fellow Gooner and serial podcaster, known on the internet as @RamblinGooner, about the upcoming winter transfers window and how Arsène Wenger will strengthen our squad. Will he sign a defender? Will he sign a defensive midfielder? Will he sign both? Then suddenly I found myself […]
Arsene Wenger ASSESSING whether Arsenal NEED to make MORE SIGNINGS to an improved squad for the new season
Arsenal vs Manchester United, February .. 2014. We had just lost heavily to Liverpool and were given the chance to produce a roaring response against a team who had been having a poor season by their standards. Basically, the game was there to be won. But we played a frustrating goalless draw and didn’t create […]
A Gunners Town Guide to Gooners at the World Cup
Afternoon chaps, by the time you read this, the 2014 Brazilian World Cup will have started. The majority of the best players plying their trade will be present and the roller-coaster ride will give us some thrilling highs and gut-wrenching lows. Personally, I am saddened that the tropical climate will almost certainly rob us of […]
An Exciting new chapter in the history of our Arsenal Football club awaits – Rocky’s Round Up.
When Aaron Ramsey stabbed home the winner against Hull City in the FA cup final, Arsenal entered a new chapter in our long and decorated history and one I just can’t help but feel excited about. Following on from securing fourth place we did the business in the final two games of the season against […]
