Sheffield United vs. Arsenal – PL preview – Monday 21st October 2019 – Bramall Lane, Sheffield. Time to end once and for all our away day “rustiness” in the Steel City We’re off to the Steel City on Monday. Our away form has been rusty over the past few seasons, but then this can […]
Man United 1-1 Arsenal Premier League review We didn’t get the win at Old Trafford after all. It’s been since 2006 and we’re still waiting…. Overall, a draw was a fair result. Both sides had good chances and created moments in the 90 minutes. However, from our standpoint, I feel it’s a disappointment. […]
Well it has been quite a week supporting The Arsenal. A stirring come back in the Premier League, an exciting victory over Nottingham Forest in the League Cup, a first glimpse of Kieran Tierney, the return of Holding and Bellerin and the captaincy decision played out in the public arena. The decision to name Granit […]
Unai Emery must go. This is not one of those post-defeat, rage-fuelled tantrums but a conclusion I came to after a long reflection. I held this back until after the Carabao Cup game against Nottingham Forest to avoid any connection between to over-laborious win against Aston Villa in the Premier League and my piece. I’ve […]
Arsenal’s first Europa League game of the campaign will be a welcome distraction from the Premier League. Following the capitulation at Watford, the mood around the Emirates is far from upbeat. Five games into the season isn’t the time to panic. But the rumours that are circling the club about players not understanding the manager’s […]
When I was watching Watford batter us during an abysmal second half showing at Vicarage Road, I was heavily reminded by how we played Huddersfield away last season. That game was our first league win on the road in over two months. On the day we went 2-0 up after the first 45 minutes and […]
NO IDENTITY, COHERENCY OR SECURITY The same failings and issues that Emery inherited when he took on the Arsenal job in May last year are as stark today as when he joined The team play with an inconsistency that is unsurprising given how often we change system and personnel Individual errors remain characteristic of a […]
Watford vs. Arsenal preview Our training ground neighbours are our next opponents, though this may be trickier than anticipated considering their recent managerial change. But there is some beef, of sorts, between us, so it’s intriguing to see how this will pan out. The usual talk when we play them is the “cojones” […]
After the international break we return to the excitement of the Premier League with a short away trip to Vicarage Road, to face an out-of-sorts Watford, minus talisman Deeney but with a new manager. It would be fair to say that Arsenal have found the Hornets troublesome of late having been stung by them home […]
Tierney, Bellerin, Holding Will their arrival alone lead to better defending? Hector Bellerin, Rob Holding, and Kieran Tierney are all young and promising defenders, who Arsenal haven’t had the time to bed in this season. Bellerin dipped a little in the past couple of seasons, though he stepped up before his injury at […]
