Hello everyone this is my first article of many I hope from Russia for Gunners Town and you can read my bio at the end! – Alex My, the last couple of days dragged by painfully slowly. I suspect it’s as much to do with us playing on Tuesday as with all the subsequent […]

Has Wenger’s new kind of tactical flexibility made Arsenal unpredictable and dangerous?
Purely in terms of results, this has actually been a good week. It doesn’t feel like it for obvious reasons, but a 3-0 win and a 2-0 win are good results, not only because of the victories, but the nature of them too. We played very well in both games and rarely looked troubled at […]
Olivier Giroud may not be World Class but he is more classy than Durham, Scholes & Townsend

It’s a simple format, really – each week, a smattering of our eclectic scribes will select a HERO, a VILLAIN, a HIGHLIGHT, and […]
Arsenal wasted 16 minutes hoping for a ‘Miracle in Monte Carlo’ rather than creating one!
Yes, we played well in Monaco. Yes, we could have scored at least one more goal. Yes, we showed character and desire. Yes, we gave the qualification away in the home leg. Yes, we fell short. The win in Monaco is very difficult to take, especially when you see the authority, command and […]
Mourinho playing the same players all season could be costly as ‘Wengerball’ Arsenal with returning stars look fresh?
Triumph against the Hammers has placed us 6 points under Chelsea for what’s likely to be a very short period. It does have me contemplating what result I desire in tomorrow’s game between Chelsea and Southampton, well to be honest it doesn’t, rarely do I ever want to see Chelsea win and an away victory […]
For Ozil to truly shine at Old Trafford Cazorla and Giroud should miss out – Big Call!!
Well here we go with a crunch game against United in what could define our season. I say this because the FA Cup is our greatest chance of a trophy but this may also have a mental effect on our league visit to Old Trafford which will be decisive in the top 4 battle. […]
Palace hard press left them exposed at the back & No way back for Theo and Jack!
Captain’s Log star-date 1, 6, 8, 7 point 6. I’ve been in the mood for a cheeseburger for a few weeks now. Not the sort we serve on the ship, a different sort. Maybe with a more exotic meat. Maybe we’ll boldly go and see what the Niberian wilderbeast tastes like. All in the name […]
50 Not Out!! – What more does Giroud have to do to please all Gunners?
After netting his 50th goal for the club yesterday, Olivier has proven himself a solid member of the Arsenal squad. Credit must be paid towards his improvement at the club in his 3 years here. Olivier Giroud divides opinion amongst most Gooners as to whether he’s good enough to lead the line for us and […]

February 20, 2015
This is part II of the Walcott Conundrum article that began earlier today here from @Lordhillwood. Part 1 – Press Here Looking at goal ratio per game only reveals part of the story, we need to look at key aspects of TW’s game over 3-4 seasons to see how he has developed (if at all) […]
Is it time for Arsenal to say ‘Cheerio to Theo?’ – The Walcott Conundrum Part 1
February 20, 2015
Before reading this article might I ask that you please take off your red and white spectacles and try to be objective rather than allow your loyalty to the club and our players to cloud your view. Weighing up a conundrum is never easy, especially when so many variables apply. In the case of a […]
