Pedro Neto is one of the most exciting players in the Premier League, and one who seems to be linked with a move to N5 in every transfer window that passes us by. Here, I make the case of why singing the electric wide man WOULD be a good idea for the club this summer. […]

The Departure Lounge – Which players should be sold this summer and why? Where should they go? How much should we get? And should we replace them?
Now the season is done and dusted, it seems reasonable for everyone’s attention to turn to what I am sure will be another busy summer transfer window at The Arsenal. In this piece, I will take a look at the players who could leave the club in the next few months, along with who may […]
Partey Time for Arteta’s Arsenal – Tackling, Passing, Dribbling, a Full Analysis
Arsenal’s Summer transfer has kicked off with the club announcing the signing of Willian on a free transfer. With hopefully a busy transfer window ahead, Arsenal are looking to add a defender, with Gabriel hopefully imminent and 2 midfielders. With talk of Dani Ceballos gone quiet, one name that won’t go away is Thomas Partey. […]
Arsenal linked to Roma’s Amadou Diawara as realistic Partey Alternative -Scouting Report.
Even before the FA Cup Final this weekend, and therefore before Arsenal’s season is over and their European football fate determined, the transfer gossip is rife. Today it is mostly around the news that the club have an option to extend Aubameyang’s stay but may not exercise it. However, there is also (as there is […]
Arsenal Transfer Talk through the eyes of Elmer Fudd – Its all Wewy Wewy Quiet, I’m hunting Wabbits
To some the transfer window is a joyous time filled with hope and wonder; to others, it holds the same appeal as a state visit by Donald Trump at the taxpayer’s expense. For Arsenal fans, it’s as awkward and embarrassing as a Trump and Kanye West meet and greet. It’s hard to adequately convey Arsenal’s […]
With Transfer Fees so high, Arsenal go for “Diamond Eye”
Diamond Eye It sounds like a James Bond movie from the 80’s but this time without the Vodka Martini part. Yesterday, Arsenal confirmed the signing of BVB scout Sven Mislintat whose nickname is “Diamond Eye” as he has spotted so many great talents over the last 10 years. At this point you might have heard […]
Transfer Post-Mortem: Arsenal in Shambles On and Off the Pitch
I’m writing this as the transfer window has just closed and Arsenal have ended up with a £17m profit. For a club of Arsenal’s size, with I believe the 5th largest turnover in World football this is a pretty shocking state of affairs, as much smaller clubs like West Brom, Brighton, Bournemouth, Watford and Huddersfield […]
They say Lacazette can be the new Wrighty – Are they Wright?
This blog will be short and sweet, (not always the case with me) and has been inspired by those making comparisons between our shiny new record signing and a certain Mr Ian Wright. Indeed only yesterday, a man who should know, Gerard Houllier, described Lacazette as the ‘New Ian Wright’. Indeed there so may similarities […]
Arsenal Fans – Is the Club Respecting your Loyalty or Simply Exploiting it?
I have read the excellent articles by Petits Ponytail, Alex Baguzin and Timothy Hargreaves and this contribution is designed to augment them rather than to try to improve upon them. The one by Timothy was predictive and was written pre the Liverpool match and that is the cue for my lead in. Just before the game […]
Games without frontiers: Gabriel gets a makeover
Jeux sans frontieres Just heard this absolute tune the other day and it inspired me. A bit of light relief in the off season maelstrom!! Song by Peter Gabriel Words by Wellmo Kos plays it to Santi, Santi plays it to Xhak Elneny, then to Rambo and then Xhaka gets it back Granit forward to […]
