‘4 points, 2 points or none’ POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I have no interest in working at FIFA. Well, I might take a medium sized bung then take a sabbatical to Montego Bay for 30 years! I also don’t think that they should change the 3 points for a win system. It’s fine. When I […]
Watford vs. Arsenal Premier League preview We face Watford, and a certain Mr. Deeney, who notably said we lacked the balls (essentially) when he beat us 2-1 in 2017. This comment was perhaps a bit base, since it was on national TV (BT Sport), but it was warranted. We did lack the “cojones” […]
Paul Merson is without a doubt an Arsenal legend. He was part of the mid-80s crop of Keown, Adams, the late, great Rocky Rocastle, Thomas, Quinn, etc. who were part of the core of the 1989/1991 title-winning teams. He also had the guile which possibly made our “boring” tag of this period unfair. […]
We will be looking to extend our winning streak to 5 leagues games and 7 overall when hosting Watford today. A task made harder than usual by the Bees’ surprisingly excellent form up to date: Xavi Gracia’s team are on 13 points after 6 games, losing one (to United) and drawing one (to Fulham last […]

Premier League Season Preview 2017/18 So the new season is but days away, it feels both an age away but also just like yesterday that Arsenal lit Wembley up during the epic curtain closer of the FA cup final. There are so many changes in football this coming season, with many clubs getting new managers […]
Difficult times for Arsenal, for Arsenal fans, for Wenger. Another bad performance and a pulverising result has focused attention on our failings. Wenger looked crushed and crumpled after the game. We all slept badly and woke up on Thursday morning with pain as we quickly recalled the scale of the defeat. And it came on […]
I have to work. And by ‘work’, I mean write beautiful, creative, inspiring music. On a deadline. Try doing that when there is a Mariana Trench of a frown that won’t wipe itself off your forehead. Try doing that when you still find yourself shaking your head when you remember that last night Arsenal played […]
Well, that was much more like it. An impeccable first half to put Arsenal 3 up and then a less convincing second, but more than enough to claim the three points in the end. Watford away was never going to be a walk in the park, Chelsea nearly lost for a reason, so I’m really […]
Hello. Game week №3 is nearly upon us, which means we are about to see our players don the blue (gray?) and yellow once again, before the international break kicks in. This time around a win for the Gunners is absolutely vital, even though not all players will be available still, to say nothing about the two […]
