‘Lovely new things’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective. A glass half full post. If we won what we want to win this season, and my posts were more glass half empty I’d be embarrassed. Even though there are always needs for improvement and analysis, I think it’s important that we bathe in the […]
The October window delivered a proper mixed bag of friendlies and high‑stakes qualifiers, and plenty of Gunners (plus a few new faces in the squad) were right in the thick of it. Here’s how they got on over the past ten days—goals, assists, minutes, the lot—with an eye on how they’ll return to London Colney. […]
‘Reasons and Excuses’ ‘’An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective’ This is how I felt during and directly after the game. I don’t get flustered by much. I do have a list though. A short list. If you call QVC shopping network, a human picks up the phone and immediately asks you what they can […]
‘Art in motion’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective Well, I wasn’t expecting that. There wasn’t much ‘art’ against Villareal and the ’motion’ wasn’t jiving either.

Matchday nine of the Premier League season features a box office match between two of the Premier League’s top three last season as Arsenal will host Liverpool on Saturday. The Emirates Stadium will be the battlefield for this colossal match as both sides continue their march for the title. These are the two teams most […]
Five years later An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective Max was home alone watching the PSG game. I miss not having him on our car rides back and forth to school as he is now doing home school. School curriculum is getting a lil weird and American schools are a target for nut […]
‘Mikel Mignon’ An Arsenal blog from a coach’s perspective Flank steak thinks it’s good. It doesn’t show up on the menu often so it’s considered ‘special.’ “Oh, they’ve got flank steak, honey.” At this point you are being conned but because it’s a hard find, you go along with your wife and order flank steak.
