We now firmly in the mad January Transfer Window season and the media are full of stories linking clubs to various loans and signings. The BBC Gossip Column is an excellent page to visit each morning for a quick summary of the morning papers but even they can only provide a synopsis of the stories, […]
Exclusive- Ozil’s New Contract With the New Year fast approaching and rumours abound that Ozil is off to Turkey / Italy / A N Other place , The Arsenal are rewriting Mesut’s job description, to get some use out of him before he sees out his contract and try to offset the obscene waste of […]
I haven’t written much about Arsenal for a long time. Partly because it sometimes felt pointless. Partly because I had become apathetic. I’ll admit, Mikel Arteta’s appointment got my interest back up in a short space of time. We had a number of fringe and/or underperforming players get a new lease on life, a clean […]
For far too long Özil and Arsenal have been intertwined in a sadly tragic affair. Both player and club are reminding me of the hit Lady Gaga song, Bad Romance. One particular line in the song goes as follows, “You and me could write a bad romance”. That line is strangely fitting as I am […]

Another bite-sized chunk of Arsenalness delivered fresh to your cranium. Tune in and see why the […]
Episode 19 “Will.I.An? Mesut Won’t. GK Shootout.” Gav, Dave and Mike dive into the muddy waters of the transfer market: who will sign? and when? Also a quick look at the Ozil Saga as it enters its Final Season (or not?) – and what to do about our abundance of fine shotstoppers… it’s a shootout […]
Sometimes fans come up with the craziest of ideas and theories. Some go noticed by many like the banners and the attitudes of fans on social media going global. And when I mean ideas, this is something not based on transfers like we should buy player x because of his reputation or because he had […]
NOTE: This was written before the So’ton game. But for me, the issues at Arsenal Football Club have been a cascade of continually BAD decisions. It’s like a butterfly-effect of poor actions and wrong points, leading to our stellar mid-table placing currently. There is the poem of the “road not taken…” and how choices shape […]
