Some solutions to Arsene’s striker crisis Could there be a striker crisis in the first few weeks of the season for Arsenal? With a couple of tough fixtures to start off the season, including Liverpool and Leicester, Wenger may have to improvise with his team to find someone who will do a job through the […]

Exclusive – Walcott’s ready to fight for his position but not the position you think!!
It’s a quite morning in London Colney. The birds are tweeting, the squirrels are rummaging and the only other noise is the low crescendo of rippling gravel under the tyres of a solitary Ferrari, making its lonely way down the drive to the front door. The car comes to a halt and out jumps Theo, […]
Is Mkhitaryan the Assister to Assist the Assiter Ozil at Arsenal?
It would seem the murmurs about Heinrikh Mkhitaryan to Arsenal just won’t quite die down and since it had become apparent that the Armenian is refusing to sign a new deal at Dortmund the talk is louder again. There is no doubt Arsenal have had him watched but then I suspect most of the top […]
Much to Review and so much to do Wenger as up to 8 can leave this Summer
In the closing stages of our final game of the season against Aston Villa, for the first time in the entire campaign, I felt truly united with all my fellow Arsenal supporters. We sang together and we laughed together as the news of Spurs’ humiliation, at the hands of a relegated Newcastle side, filtered through. […]
It happened again – A Glorious Day in the Sun in North london
If you are a regular reader of my posts, then you know I’m generally unperturbed by Spurs. For example, I hate Chelsea much more than Tottenham. Guess I’ve just never taken Spurs seriously. Had I been a bit younger (I’m 22), I could have said Tottenham haven’t finished above Arsenal in my entire lifetime. As […]
Every Gamble Wenger took with our season failed to pay out – Fail to Plan = Plan to Fail
2015/2016 – A Season that Ended so Familiarly Before it Began In the end you do not buy to give one hope, you want to buy because the players who come in can help your squad to be stronger. Buying and selling is one way to strengthen your team, but that is not the only way. […]
5 things that should be on Arsenal and Arsene’s wish list this Summer
The past few months on Twitter have resembled Baz Lurhman’s opening to his film interpretation of William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, ‘’Two households (AKB’S v WOB) both alike in dignity, in fair Verona where we lay our scene’’ Okay so you swap dignity for petulance and swap Verona for the pitch and you get the […]
THE NORTH LONDON PLAGUE Part 1 – ARSENE WENGER – Transfers, Stubbornness and Loyalty
I recently had a conversation with a group of friends, a group in which I am tagged as a ‘Wenger Boy,’ and one of these friends, asked my view on what I personally think the problems plaguing The Arsenal are. This seemingly simple question sent me into deep thought, and for a while I could […]
If the Best Pundit Neville can’t succeed why listen to those criticizing Wenger who have not tried management or failed at it
No question it is a difficult time to be an Arsenal supporter. Things are not easy. There are a number of problems. We are under-achieving. This was to be our year. We were settled – funds at our disposal, just signed a top keeper and the season beckoned. But we have fallen short. Premature to […]
Little Bit Handbrake : A Forgettable Messi February
With work related travel taking up a huge part of the last three weeks, I’ve been unable to post my column per my usual schedule. In a way, I count this as a blessing in disguise. It has shielded me from what has been such a toxic and painful month for Arsenal and Arsenal fans […]
