What did 2020 ever do for us? It’s been a facked up year, but when things are hard, there’s always a learning opportunity to be had. Here’s what I learnt from 2020. A decent, thoughtful manager, makes a shed load of difference After all these years, our defence is still pants! […]
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the % game. With the transfers window now open and in an attempt to take my mind off the upcoming FA Cup Final against Chelsea, I tried to assess the current squad and see how many chances each player has to still be at the Club, next season. It […]
The business Arsenal do in this transfer window will dictate their 2020/21 premier league destiny. Chelsea’s inability to make signings last year because of the transfer ban means they will be spending big and addressing key areas within their squad. They have already started with the acquisitions of Ziyech and Werner! Manchester United are a […]
Tactical tweaks and flexibility are key to Arteta’s Arsenal It’s clear for all to see that Arteta has improved us defensively. It was only a few months ago that this group of players was being described as ‘uncoachable’ and totally written off. Although I’m under no illusions as to our current standing as a top half […]
Initially I was underwhelmed with Mikel’s appointment. I felt the owner and recruitment team would be able to dictate his every move, being a typical ‘yes’ man.

We won way – again!! A complete performance. Wolves were tamed into dogs by the Arsenal. This was one of the best away wins in some years. Everyone to a man was on their top form. There were no errors, and we were structured, disciplined, and professional throughout. It was an away […]

Like many other Gooners out there, my tolerance towards Mr. Kroenke isn’t strong. I feel he’s overseen our steady decline and demise from top-four regulars to ninth place. The three FA Cups wins in his tenure were all glorious occasions. But with proper oversight, targets, and drive, we had the capacity to do much […]
This feels different Positives, Needs and Hopes I respect the world of football stats but don’t search them out. There is something in me that resists stats and considers them somewhat unnecessary even though many are interesting and revealing. I far prefer basing my judgments on feeling. Maybe it’s because I’ve poured much […]
