Seven consecutive games with his name on the scoresheet, that’s quite an achievement for Joe Willock.If there’s one ideal example of a perfect loan deal, it has to be Joe Willock’s stint at St. James’s Park.…and that is why we should be selling him.When he left for Newcastle, Joe Willock was a peripheral figure in […]
Out of interest: Would you rather sign a winger who got 15 goals and 5 assists last season or 5 goals and 15 assists? This isn’t a question about Arsenal. Imagine you’re put in charge of a team you’ve never seen play & you have to pick one to sign. — Dan Critchlow (@afcDW) May […]
It’s a new decade. So to get into the mood (like with our current managerial change) here are a few reminders of what transpired in the previous Gooner decade – highlights, lowlights, players, matches and of course, personal memories. First: some of the bad times. Let’s get those out the way. So first up a […]
Everton vs. Arsenal – Premier League Preview We travel up to Goodison Park, and face off with the Toffeemen on Sunday. Everton’s form has improved over the past few weeks, with some wins against Chelsea and a strong victory over West Ham to boot. Everton is a traditionally great club in English […]
Arsenal 2-0 Everton A clean sheet at last. Everton got stuck in Toffee, in the end….. Everton’s nickname is the Toffeemen since that part of Merseyside was noted for its toffee production. They started well and played well to boot, but they eventually got stuck in their own toffee, as we finally got […]
The squad flew out to Singapore last week and there was a noticeable absence on the plane, Carl Jenkinson. With the exception of Rambo (more on him later), this appears to be the final nail in the coffin of ‘British Core 1.0’. Back in 2012, these 6 players were supposed to represent the future of […]
We’ve heard the phrase time and time again: “Arsene Wenger doesn’t do tactics.” If you have been watching Arsenal for any length of time, you know this over-generalization is simply not true. A manager of his pedigree with 34 years of experience does indeed tailor specific game plans for specific opponents. The above phrase needs […]
Arsenal 5-1 Everton With the introduction of PEA and Mkhi, and both of them contributing to this fine win vs Everton, we’re still adapting to life after “Alexit”. Do you miss Alexis? Well, thus far, the team doesn’t. Our two new boys had good games, with Mkhi being man of the match. Our old boy […]
We take on Chelsea for the the second time inside 6 days and my fear Wenger is going to field a squad not dissimilar to the one which crashed out of the cup three days ago. Mercifully, there’s the small matter of these guys having to play a second game in just a matter of […]
Nottingham Forest 4-2 Arsenal FA Cup 3rd Round January 7th 2018 This is a new low. Forest have tradition, and have done things we haven’t (European Cup). But then we allowed them to bully us, press us, and dominate our defence. Online betting sites such as 888Sport and virtually the whole footballing world had Arsenal […]
