Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! The Arsenal Women team is finally back, after the winter break. There is so much to unpack, since we last spoke, that I’m afraid this will become a long read – but stick with me, please. A month ago, when I reported about the North London Derby defeat at the […]
The fruits of patience We are now in a position where our relationship with Arsene Wenger can be purely romantic. We don’t have to remember the frustrations. We can rewind to the first 10 years and see his legacy with the fog of the recent past subsided. We remember not only the titles but how […]
Prior to the season commencing, there was no denying that Arsenal were in desperate need of a right back. But not just any right back, someone who possessed a profile that stylistically suited the plan Mikel Arteta had in mind. Max Aarons and Emerson Royal were linked with moves to the Emirates, but neither of […]
Plots. Sinister dealings. These words may come to mind when you think conspiracy theories.

Watford 2-2 Arsenal Premier League Review – 15th Sept., 2019 – Vicarage Road, Watford Same old Arsenal. Always a bad culture.. It always creases me up when I hear the chant “same old Arsenal; always cheating!” It often arises when we’re awarded a foul, and one that is legitimate per the IFAB Laws […]
