While most people associated with Arsenal are currently obsessing over the Robin van Persie fiasco, other members of the squad have a proverbial clock ticking away over their head. One of those is Alex Song, but the one I’m going to focus on is Theo Walcott. WTTGT

Is it too late for RVP?
The Robin van Persie saga took another dramatic twist on Tuesday, as fresh reports claim that the Arsenal captain could in fact sign a new contract after all. Despite signalling his intention that he would not be extending his current deal last week, it now appears that RVP may now be prepared to stay at […]
Valid replacements or cheap alternatives?
The summer began quickly and in unprecedented fashion for Arsenal, as two major signings were made before 1st July. Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud joined the club from FC. Koln and Montpellier respectively and look set to bring firepower to the Arsenal forward line. With Captain RVP so publically declaring his desire to leave the club, […]
Stiliyan Petrov, a true captain
As an Arsenal fan I’ve had a lot to say over things that have happened at my club in the last few days, some not at all pleasant. I have now mellowed following a moment on Thursday afternoon. I watched the news yesterday and saw Stiliyan Petrov back at the Villa training ground. He was […]
Robert Lewandowski- The perfect striker
Well, who didn’t see it coming? Robin van Persie has decided not to renew his contract with Arsenal, leaving him with a year left on his contract before he can move on as a free agent. But I’m not here to whine about Van Persie abandoning us, you can read hundred of articles about that […]
Now to face a series of tests

Early signings look good but Van Persie holds the key
The signings of Lukas Podolski and Oliver Giroud, plus the possible arrival of Yann M’Vila, are encouraging signs, but are they really the type of players Arsenal needs to challenge for the title next season? Podolski appears to be a direct replacement for Andrey Arshavin, while Giroud, at 6ft 3in, is the obvious choice to replace […]
A summer that could define Monsieur Wenger
The summer of 2012; a defining summer for both the direction of the football club, and the destiny of Arsene Wenger. The club, while learning from last summer, has once again put itself in an unfortunate position of letting yet another star player run his contract down to just one more year. WTTGT
Lukas Podolski: What to expect and how he’ll fit in
As a keen viewer of German football I for one can’t wait to see Lukas Podolski playing for The Arsenal. Podolski has always struck me as an exciting player: he’s strong, has a decent turn of pace and an explosive left foot. Not dissimilar to a certain Robin Van Persie. WTTGT
A message to you RVP
I’m sure you all want Robin Van Persie to stay at Arsenal as much as I do. A lot has been said in both the media and on blog sites about the Dutchman’s future, although nothing has been decided and sorted yet. Rather than blog about it, our new writer Bakare Ummukulthoum took a different approach […]
