“Yes, I think in the future you will see that more and more. Players going to the end of their contracts. Why? Because transfers become so high, even for normal players, that you will see more and more players going to the end of their contract because nobody will want to pay the amount of […]
As I was watching Liverpool tear apart Manchester City at the end of November, a simple thought was playing at the back of mind: Liverpool hugely benefitted that day from having a mobile centre-forward. Yes, Roberto Firmino may not be your centre-forward of choice, he is far from a finished article, he had a lot […]
An unsung hero delivers once again – Nacho I salute you A victory to remember, a night like few others for Arsenal, the night we stopped what seemed to be an unstoppable Bayern Munich machine and reminded the world that we can compete with the elite in Europe. Oh and it’s also worth mentioning that […]
Watford They haven’t had too many regular starters on international duty so they’ll be fresh for the challenges that we’ll present them with. Luckily for us, Mertesacker has retired from international football, while Gabriel, Monreal, Koscielny and (inexplicably) Coquelin were all left at home by Brazil, Spain and France respectively.

It’s January, it’s the transfer season. But I don’t want to talk transfer rumours today. I want to talk about transfer tactics, which are a huge topic in Germany at the moment. As everyone may have read, the Robert Lewandowski saga came to an end this Saturday. Nothing to be surprised about to be honest […]
On most often an occasion, there honestly lies little that distinguishes one individual over and above another especially when it comes to careers and personal records. And in my opinion this rule doesn’t appear to be truer than in the realm of football management. Have you ever taken time to wonder how almost ALL the […]
Doppelpass Back for another edition of Doppelpass this week. The transfer market seems to be gathering pace and we are in for a certain Gonzalo Higuain and are quite active in general. We just lack an official confirmation on the official Arsenal site. So nothing to worry about! So what’s been on in Germany this week? It’s […]
Doppelpass Back from my beach break and straight into the office. But there is still some time to get you the latest Arsenal related transfer news from Germany.
