Will Arsenal Finish in the Top-4 of the Premier League?
The early stages of the 2019-20 campaign have been mostly positive for Arsenal. Unai Emery’s side won each of their first two fixtures of the season before a 3-1 setback at Anfield in matchweek 3.

We have swapped Calamity and Gaffs in Mustafi for an Older Version Gaffster in Luiz
Victor’s response to the GT Match review of Anfield defeat ……… I am a bit hesitant to criticise an article by someone who is a coach and so I will stick to some basic observations for which a coach’s badge is not necessary. For instance, I did a critique at the time I […]
Nicolas Pepe – Long Overdue speed and dancing feet, to get us Gooners out of our seat
Liverpool’s dominance at Anfield on Sunday acted as a reminder, not that anyone really needed reminding, that the Premier League is a two horse race. Following the team’s lacklustre performance, to be considered anything other than also rans would be an insult to the shadows which Arsenal chased on Saturday. And yet, the mood remains […]

The Cunning Plan for Anfield backfired but at least we had a Plan. – Review & Player Ratings

Arsenal for life: local lad and Highbury Legend – the one and only Pat Rice
It’s back once again to the swinging sixties in the time machine for the latest Highbury Hero. In December 1964 a young local lad signed Schoolboy forms to join The Arsenal. Never has a player been so determined, so driven and worked so hard at his game to reach the standard to be an Arsenal […]
Xhaka: Is the Swiss Midfielder’s Return a Big Plus?
Humanity often has the habit of looking towards the future and forgetting the past. Not from a sanguine or optimistic standpoint but in a disregard for that which has served them well. We are quick to throw out that which is not broken and upgrade or update for the sake of appearances. Granit Xhaka, for […]
Season Predictor for Unai’s Second Campaign
Can Unai improve upon last season? As we kicked off a new season over in the land of Geordies, it’s time to think about what as fans do we expect our club to be doing over the course of the season. In the simple terms, this is something I would like for us to do […]
