POSITIVE Aaron Ramsey The Welsh Jesus has returned. Against Stoke, Ramsey showed a glimpse of the player who shone in the 13/14 season. His first touch was sharp, it allowed him to quickly pick out an offensive pass; no more 360′ wide-turns, slowing down our attack. Watching him off the ball was a revelation: his […]
Here are my predictions for the season for what it’s worth. Champions: Arsenal Runners up: Man City Those two are interchangeable. I’ve gone with heart and the fact that no Europe will be huge for Arsenal in first half of season (assuming Wengy sticks to his promise to play the kids). But in reality it’s […]
Will Lacazette hit the ground running in his first season? Is Arsenal going to strengthen at CM? Will Aaron Ramsey return to his form of the ‘13-’14 season? These questions, as well as the looming contract situations of Alexis, Ozil, and the Ox, have been the main talking points this offseason. Now that we’ve had […]
Let’s face it, unless you follow the logic of Jose Mourinho, the upcoming Community Shield against Chelsea is nothing but a glorified friendly. That being said, it will give us our first true taste of a viable squad as this is a valuable tune-up for the start of the Premier League season. Recent years have […]
Another day, another Arsenal transfer rumor. You know we’re at the heart of “silly season” when the narrative drastically changes daily in regards to potential incomings and outgoings. A few days ago the speculation revolved around a Matic-for-Ox swap deal. Immediately many, myself included, rejected this as nonsense and pure clickbait. You rarely see deals […]
Granit Xhaka sits in his lavish home office at an executive desk. In his left hand is a glass of fine champagne and in his right is a computer mouse. He gazes anxiously at the widescreen monitor of his computer that currently displays the homepage for the popular dating site, E-Harmony. He knows he needs […]
This is a massive summer for Arsenal Football Club. Vital decisions will be made in regards to front office, coaching staff, and player profile that should change the complexion of our organization as we know it. This transitionary period could well decide if we are on the precipice of constant Europa league mediocrity or evolving […]
Popular author Richelle E. Goodrich once implied that statistics mean everything to men and nothing to gods. This piece is effectively a part 2 or a follow up to the Leaky Numbers article earlier to day that you can read here That may have been true as despite some of these encouraging statistics which we […]
Men lie, women lie, but numbers do not lie. I do not have the slightest idea whom that quote came from, but what a smart man or woman he or she must have been, cause a nail could not be hit more clearly on the head. Arsenal has always had torrid seasons, in the last […]
The Arsenal we know and love was on full display Saturday. They showed a blend of industry, guile, and fluid attacking football that helped me fall in love with this team over a decade ago. Regardless of whether or not you feel Alexis’ early goal should have stood, you can’t argue that we were the […]
