“The past four days have been extremely trying for me, and all Arsenal fans I would assume, following our opening day defeat at home to Liverpool. Sunday’s 4-3 reverse meant that we have only won one of our last six games on the opening weekend of the Premier League, which was that last-gasp 2-1 home […]
Dear Fellow Gunners If in recent years you have associated yourself with the vigorous anti-Wenger brigade then yesterdays defeat by Liverpool will have reinforced your commitment to the cause that Wenger must leave Arsenal FC as soon as possible. I hasten to add this is not my view for reasons that appear below but if […]
So, Arsenal are starting another season short-handed. The striker to help Giroud has not been found and AFC are still one centre-back short. Granit Xhaka was brought in immediately after last season ended to ensure season ticket renewals and I don’t think the Club had any concrete plan to fill up the gaps in the […]
So having helped build up Gunners Town from scratch in 2013 I am now going to be writing for it more often. A regular column here along with a bi-weekly Shoot feature will be my blogging homes for 2016/17. So amid all the ‘will he won’t he splash the cash’ and do what we all […]
“I’ve said to the manager that I want to be known for playing on the right again. I can play up front, given the opportunity, and the manager says I can play up front, so it depends on which game it is. I know I can do a job up front as well as on […]
For The Gunners pre-season begins in earnest tonight in Lens. FC Lens are no longer the top side who battled Wenger’s great 1998 double winners in the Champion’s League. Indeed they are not even a top division side in France, finishing last season 4th in Ligue 2 but they should provide a good work out […]
How to solve a problem like Higuain I saw a funny tweet the other day, it went something like this ‘’according to local reports, Gonzalo Higuain has undergone too many medical tests at Arsenal, and has now become a qualified doctor’’, I assure you that reading that as a tweet was a lot funnier than […]
We are nearly half way through the summer transfer window and Arsenal have still only made one major signing. For many Arsenal fans this is a frustrating time of year. We are usually linked with some top class players with proven goal-scoring records but never actually go in for them. But what we do […]
Is Alexandre Lacazette the new French bargain for Arsenal? Gunners Town’s own @Grooverblog chats to @Eurolyonnais After a frustrating 15-16 season, where Arsenal failed to lift a league title obviously opened, a lot of questions remain about the offensive ability of the striking squad. Olivier Giroud wasn’t efficient enough, and neither an out of form […]
So, the semi-finals are behind us. Needless to say I’m heartbroken Wales couldn’t beat Portugal, however the other semi-final was a win-win situation, seeing as there were Gunners involved on either side. Let’s shoot to the analysis of what happened then. Portugal 2-0 Wales Without the suspended Ben Davies and Aaron Ramsey Chris Coleman’s side […]
