Get off Giroud’s back and help him rebuild his confidence The fallout has descended from what was a frustrating transfer window to say the least, constant links with star strikers across the world were short lived as we became the only club in Europe’s top five leagues not to sign an outfield player – for […]
On Saturday I was speaking to my sister in Hawaii, and she told me that her boyfriend’s 13-year-old son, Blu, was now playing ‘soccer’ (football) and was interested in following the premier league. I told her it was perfect timing, since the season was about to kick off, and that NBC was streaming (and storing) […]
So, Where Are We Really? The silly season is almost over. So, where does Arsenal stand in comparison to our major competitors in the Premier League? Arsenal signed a top goalkeeper in Petr Cech, with Wojciech Szczesny exiting on loan to Roma, and David Ospina and Emi Martinez remaining to deputize. Ospina and Martinez are likely, […]
“The last enemy that shall be destroyed”. As I counted down the minutes left till the final whistle, the thought that it was so much more than a glorified friendly once again crossed my mind. It was Arsenal vs Chelsea, Arséne Wenger vs Jose Mourinho, empowerment vs man-management. In short, it was a battle of […]
Another brilliant post from Gunners Town guest writer @petitsponytail. Be sure to follow him on Twitter… — World class striker? You’re having a laugh Every day since this Godforsaken painstaking transfer window opened all I’ve seen is people calling for this mythical world class striker. It’s quite simple, my fellow Gooners – there’re only six […]
I’ll start my preview for the Community Shield game with the good news: Theo Walcott and Santi Cazorla have both signed new long-term contracts with the Club, worth 140k and 130k per week respectively. Frankly, I consider these numbers reasonable. Theo becomes 2nd highest-paid (behind Ozil) and Santi is tied in 3rd with Alexis Sanchez. […]
Hello fellow Gooners. The weekend was very interesting and the season is almost upon us. I won’t dwell too much on the Emirates Cup because it’s already been covered so well, so just a few quick thoughts on the two games from me. Lyon The first half of the game was a demonstration of immediate […]
Arsenal’s attacking transition holds the key to EPL glory next season. In a period where strikers are tagged with astronomical figures, Arsenal go into the season with a real possibility of having an attacking unit devoid of late changes in the transfer market. With Olivier Giroud, Mesut Ozil and Theo Walcott looking as comfortable as they’ve […]
Will The Ox Be This Season’s Breakthrough Player? Continuing from my most recent article (apologies for not posting as regularly off season) I asked who will surprise all and make himself undroppable in Arsene’s team. I think this is a massive season for Oxlade-Chamberlain. Firstly he needs to stay fit, secondly he needs to confirm […]
