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 […]
With the ink drying on Arsene Wenger’s new two year deal, it matters little which side of the fence you were. Whether you were a staunch ‘Wenger Out’ brigadier, paying for planes armed with messages or perhaps you simply felt that time for the manager had run its natural course and a change was […]
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 […]
For me it begins just over an hour before every Arsenal match. It’s the perfect blend of excitement and anxiety that gets my blood boiling. I open Twitter and refresh my feed constantly with the hope of being one of the first to see the official Arsenal starting XI. Days of speculation and analytical buildup […]
Another win, another home clean sheet. I think I can get used to that. Pity the season is almost over, we’ve just about found our groove. West Brom didn’t do us any favours at the Etihad, so Man City are basically out of reach. There are five goals between the teams, so we’ll need to […]
I think the only appropriate place to start this report is to apologise for something I said after we lost to Tottenham: “And barring four wins in five remaining games, our total this season won’t be better than in 2016. Want a bet we won’t amass 12+ points before the end of May?” I hold […]
Finally. A league win. Some good football played after the opener. A clean sheet. Seems like an eternity since Arsenal have combined all of the above. A lot of stuff to discuss, so I’ll just crack on. A tale of two parts No, not halves. Although Arsene’s men visibly cranked up the pressure after the […]
When did we stop playing Alexis up front? Why did we? I was asking these questions to myself and couldn’t really find any answer to that, I hope you can help me. My weekly column is all about this: my attempt to deviate your attention from the toxicity surrounding our Club, these days. I was […]
I have an awful feeling Mesut Ozil’s final assist in an Arsenal jersey will be to himself–an assist that helps him pioneer a move away from Arsenal Football club. His deployment within our system this season has simply not catered to his strengths and he knows it. It will be an unpopular opinion, but I […]
Gunners Town is pleased to host this guest post by James Howson (@BigJimmy_V) Is Arsene running out of trust? On Saturday after defeat to West Brom, during the post-match press conference Arsene Wenger disclosed that he has made a decision about his future, that he hasn’t told anyone and we will soon find out what […]
