Welcome to week two of my Season Diary, which comes to you this week from The Twitter Penitentiary. My crime? A crime of passion. Well, that’s the way I see it, anyway. Anyone that knows me, knows how passionate I am about The Arsenal. I’m not sure exactly when this became something to be mocked […]
In what seems at the eye of a very turbulent, virulent storm the Arsenal had a chance to potentially break a run of goalless winless games with their Carabao third round tie against West Brom. A game you would be forgiven for having fresh memories of Premier League West Brom of last season rather than […]
So, Transfer Deadline Day passed through with not too many fireworks from the Arsenal camp. Most of the touted departures happened except maybe for Reiss Nelson. https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1356250757905973250 The most interesting departure to me wasn’t really about the player but the choice of club for Ainsley Maitland-Niles. West Bromwich Albion? I mean no disrespect to […]
After being knocked out of the Carabao Cup in last night’s dismal display against League Cup bullies, Manchester City, Arteta and his bruised Arsenal team will have to pick themselves and dust themselves off for a brutal festive season and a tough start to 2021. Londoners find themselves in strict lockdown for the foreseeable future, […]
Arsenal 2-0 WBA Emirates Stadium 25th September 2017 – Premier League A reasonable performance tonight from Arsenal. WBA had some good chances in the first-half, and looked pretty dangerous in parts. However, they crumbled as Arsenal’s quality was too much for them. Pulis had supposedly never won at Arsenal before, and he needs to wait […]
Howdy. We face West Brom today, in what will round off gameweek 6. This fixture marks the beginning of an easier 5-match run for the Gunners: after the Baggies we face Brighton, Watford, Everton and Swansea. There’s potential to rack up some points here and get back on track. But first we need to overcome […]
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 […]
The feeling that something has gone so badly wrong it’s beyond repair has haunted me for a while now. Normally, after Arsenal lose a couple of games, or lose just one but in spectacular fashion, they walk the walk in the next game or two and bounce back. Now they don’t. The problem goes further: […]
The stats don’t lie A rework of Example’s 2011 tune ‘Skies don’t lie’ Possession high Passes run dry Seasons die And the stats don’t lie This basically sums it all up !!!!! Possession: 23% vs 77% Passes: 224 vs 743 Score: 3 – 1 3 times the possession, 3 times the passes, -3 times the […]
Howdy. It’s the West Bromwich Albion enigma the Gunners have to crack today and, taking into account our poor recent form and the fact Pulis is in charge of the Baggies, this is not going to be a walk in the park. Team news update Arsene Wenger faces an unenviable task of shaking the current […]
