Arsenal in February (part 2) Tactics, Improvements and Innovations How incredibly weird this season is. Fans started the summer happy for a sabbatical as Arsenal had upset us in April and May. We then got excited as Edu returned. Then we panicked, got angry, #wecaredoyou, then we got a handful of shiny signings. Started slowly but […]
As the start of the 2015-16 campaign approached, I suggested that winning the league title this season was a realistic possibility, even more so if we were able to add at least one more player of quality to the squad and following our victory against Manchester City, it had appeared that both the manager and […]
Arsenal visit Villa Park on Sunday chasing a perfect week to kick off the busy December period. Yes, beating two teams fighting for relegation and sneaking into the Champions League last 16 shouldn’t constitute what you’d a call a perfect week for a team aiming to be crowned champions but given all that transpired during […]
18 months ago, according to many, Joel Nathaniel Campbell Samuels was the man, the man to save The Arsenal. . Off the back of a decent World Cup, there were calls to fast track him into the first team to replace Giroud and/or Sanogoals up front to spearhead Arsenal’s attack. Again, he was overlooked and […]
But if you try sometimes – you just might find – you get what you need Words by Wellmington, TheSundayMorningGooner Music by Mick Jagger & Keith Richards Olympiakos arrived at the Emirates And we thought it was in our own hands They turned up and got one over on us They turned up and out-fought […]
This past week saw another disappointing night for Arsenal. Once again, we lost to a team that we reasonably expected to beat – Olympiakos had never won on English soil, and we have beaten them a few times before. Despite scoring twice, we still managed to lose the match after conceding within 60 seconds of […]
After an impressive pre-season complimented by the addition of Petr Cech, I had started to consider against my better judgement that this season could perhaps be the one where Arsene would at last prove to his critics that he had finally learned from his past mistakes, however, despite my early season optimism I have once […]
Cazorla is not bringing enough to the deeper role – it’s time to build around Ramsey. Another disappointing evening in Europe for Arsenal, which effectively makes our task near impossible with two heavyweight ties against Bayern pending. What I wanted to discuss was the major flaws of Santi Cazorla and the very little he brings […]
NLD Nothing eases the pain of a derby loss than a derby win, especially against spurs. Wenger now has a decision to make. If Coquelin is out for a while who does he pick to play next to Cazorla? The obvious answer would be club captain Mikel Arteta, but Flamini made a good case for […]
Arsenal travelled to Greece with qualification already secure into the next round of the Champions League – the only English team guaranteed this feat before kick-off last night. But, it was the Greeks who spoiled the party as they ran out winners. Read the match report and watch video highlights here on WTTGT. WTTGT
