Arsenal’s next big thing is likened to Raheem Sterling – Talking Omari Hutchinson, with Jeorge Bird
As we have all seen, Arsenal’s Hale End academy graduates have made quite a significant contribution to the club’s first team over the past 18 months. Today I sat down with Jeorge Bird, who is a prominent follower of the Arsenal youth teams. Omari recently signed his first professional contract at the club, how highly […]
Arsenal Hit New Low. Dressing Room Unrest as Club Drowns.
Outrageous. Arsenal’s dreadful loss highlights the underlying issues at the club. Beaten by Burnley for the first time in 46 years, Arsenal’s shocking fall from grace continues. Relegated from European Football’s most prestigious competition, to the dismal depths of the Europa League, Arsenal’s standards have lowered considerably. Once one of the Premier League’s finest teams, […]
No-one loves a Dicteta – how Arteta’s Arsenal turned 180 in 90 – and how to fix it [Positive Needs & Hopes]
180 in 90 POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES Ninety days ago Arsenal were offering an overdose of optimism. We’d healed so much so quickly. The defensive structure which needed a doctor in 2007 was almost fully healed. The accountability which hadn’t been present for about the same amount of time seemed to be reinstated. The opportunity […]
By saving the seniors in the short-term is Arteta set to lose some of his talented youngsters?
Saving the seniors to lose the youngsters POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I have a reoccurring nightmare. It’s not what most are talking about during this baffling spell we are in. Let’s go there…. I think that most would agree that within the next 8 months we will likely sell Xhaka, Lacazette, Mustafi, Kolasinac, possibly Bellerin, […]
Arteta was always a risky appointment – can Arsenal afford to double down?
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 […]
If Maitland Niles does not start in midfield v Burnley I will Weep! – The team that’s not there yet!
The team that’s not there yet POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I’m glad that I couldn’t watch the derby live. I got to watch it 8 hours after finding out the score. When I logged on to Twitter after the game many had unsurprisingly lost it with the manager and some of the players. Not living […]
Yes, we are still THE ARSENAL
Yes, The Arsenal Yes the result sucked Yes Maureen did one on us again Yes we are hurting Yes we weren’t at our best Yes we had 70% possession Yes we only had 2 shots on target Yes our creativity is virtually non existent Yes we have our ‘potential’ creative solution sitting at home earning […]
Form is temporary: why Arteta’s Arsenal underdogs will rise to the occasion (NLD Preview)
Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal – PL preview Tottenham Hotspur irk me. Their white shirts and blue shorts. Their logo of a chicken standing on a ball. Their motto “To Dare Is To Do” when they’re seldom ever daring or doing. The fact they took their name from a 15th-century English warrior – Henry Hotspur. […]
Arteta told his Europa Players that starts versus Tottenham were up for grabs – AMN said YES PLEASE!
….. and Arteta saw that POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I understand that I might be preaching to the choir here, as Mikel Arteta was probably the one who initiated that performance last night, but if I was one of his staff I’d make him watch the Wolves game again then this one, and play spot […]
