It’s a visit to St. Mary’s today, and it marks the beginning of a somewhat simpler run of fixtures for the Gunners. Our only top 6 team this calendar year is going to be Liverpool on December 22. The we face Chelsea on January 3, with games against Palace and West Brom sandwiched in-between. Spurs […]
I have read some newspaper reports yesterday and today and it is a gloomy occupation this morning to be reading the comments by fans. The Arsene Out Brigade (of which I am a member), are venting their spleens this morning on Twitter, and looking for blood. They are seeking Wenger`s head and laying the blame […]
The only place I can start today is to say just how massively disappointed I am. Disappointed with the result, disappointed with making a lot of despicable people happy, disappointed our fans went home on that freezing night empty-handed. Before the game there was a genuine buzz of excitement in and around the stadium. I’m […]
We host Manchester United today in a bid to secure a 13th consecutive league win at home – which will equal our all-time record. Suffice to say our chance to do so couldn’t have come against a nicer manager. However poor Arsene’s overall record against Jose is, there are quite a few bits and bobs […]
Arsene Wenger was once asked what is his ultimate goal in football. He responded with that: “You strive for perfection. And when you reach these moments, even for 5 minutes, they stay in your memory forever.” Yesterday, the Gunners managed to squeeze the perfection period in even less – just 4 minutes, from 67:44 to […]
Is Wenger changing? The stereotype of Wenger, at least before this season, has been: A (formerly) great manager A manager who seldom ever changes his team to suit the opposition A manager who cannot motivate his players for the big games A manager who believes that tactics is moot, and that sexy football conquers all […]

Burnley 0-1 Arsenal Premier League review Well, that was ugly. Not an inspired performance by us, but then a win is a win. The first half was muted for us, but the second half showed us step up more. Burnley, with Sean Dyche as the best English manager at the moment, played well overall and […]
A visit to Turf Moor is on the cards today and suffice to say we are facing another stern test. The win in the North London derby was grand, however it is not unreasonable to expect Burnley will play a totally different kind of game to Spurs. They are much more likely to sit back […]
We knew that few if any of the team which beat Spurs would be playing and that is what we got. I used to banter my Spurs supporter friend that Spurs were playing in “The Losers Cup” when they regularly played in it, whilst we were in the “Proper Cup” for top teams. We couldn`t […]
